At Art Busan 2023, a total of 12 special exhibitions will be held from the 4th to the 7th.

Philip Colbert, a British pop artist regarded as the next-generation Andy Warhol, is credited with pioneering the "Mega Pop Art" genre beyond traditional pop art. The Octopus Lobster is a large sculpture depicting a lobster wearing an octopus, conveying a hopeful message of freedom for the Octopus Lobster visiting the Haeundae sea.
