I really really enjoyed his art work and got great inspiration from his exhibition. I'd definitely go again, if you love art as much as I do then it's definitely worth it. And I recommend for anyone who visit to take time to really absolve his art work. I personally really loved his simpler lined sketch work rather than the big colourful paintings but this is strictly up to individuals taste:) and next to some of his art work there is his quotes.... And it's so delightfully...

A beautiful, charming museum dedicated to korean abstract artist Kim Whanki. You may need to take a taxi there as it s located on a quiet hill, past the Blue House.

Absolutely top-notch setting and curation for a private museum dedicated to a single artist. The spatial design of the galleries delightfully evoke the aesthetic essence of the artistsโ€™ major works. The only quibble to the place would be about its inordinately high entrance fees.

A small museum dedicated to the Korean artist who spent most of his working career in Paris during the 50s, 60s and 70s. Easy to access by bus; however, for those with mobility issues (the museum is inaccessible with no lifts and steep hills to climb).
