전북도립미술관, 2026년 전시 일정 공개… 국제성과 지역성 잇는 확장 행보

The Jeonbuk Provincial Museum of Art, led by Director Lee Ae-sun, continues its role as a cultural hub encompassing international and local aspects by announcing its exhibition schedule for 2026. This year, the museum is also attempting to expand its space and genres along with supporting local artists in the province.

In July, a special exhibition highlighting the ceramic works of the modern art master Pablo Picasso will be held. This exhibition, introducing the sculptural experiments of the French Vallauris period, is prepared as a traveling exhibition of masterpieces from the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Korea, titled "MMCA Regional Companion."

In March, an exhibition on the Jeonju-born installation artist Jeon Su-cheon (1947-2018) titled "Jeon Su-cheon: Someday Giants Will Come" will open as a research exhibition on Jeonbuk art history. Following this, in October, the former Ondal Art Museum operated in Jeonju from 1987 to 1992 will be reexamined to explore the significance of local folk art and solidarity.

The exhibition supporting young artists titled "Jeonbuk Youth 2026" will be held at the Seoul branch, with artists Kim Gyu-ri and Cho Min-ji participating. It is also expected to have an international exposure effect in line with the timing of the KIAF and Frieze Seoul.

Additionally, there will be a new acquisitions exhibition, a permanent exhibition of donated artworks, a planned exhibition at the Daeaspace within the Daeah Arboretum, and outreach programs to bring art to the public. Strengthening support for local artists will also continue through collaborations with city and county public art museums, as well as renting exhibition spaces at the Seoul branch and the Jeonbuk Provincial Government building.

Furthermore, outdoor exhibitions in the Moak Mountain area, an art garden project, and a film screening program called "JMA Film" will be pursued to expand the museum's spaces and genres.

Director Lee Ae-sun stated, "It is a process of expanding Jeonbuk's art history research and collaboration and solidarity outcomes," adding, "I hope the art museum will become a space closer to the residents of the province, starting with the Picasso ceramics exhibition."
