Savina Museum is hosting a special exhibition of Oswaldo Guayasamin(1919-1999), the first in Korea to be regarded as an Ecuador national painter and one of the “greatest artist born of Latin America”

 

This exhibition is an international art event and exhibits a total of 89 works including the highest quality oil paintings, watercolors and drawings owned by the Guayasamin Foundation, which is designated as a cultural heritage of Ecuador. In addition, you can explore the wide art world through the artist's interview videos and archives.

 

Through this exhibition, Savina Museum aims to look at the life and art of Guayasamin in dynamic Ecuador history, and to glimpse the philosophy and attitude of Guayasamin in the era of oppression, discrimination, and persecution against the people. This exhibition is the first to introduce Ecuador's contemporary art and is expected to serve as a platform for cultural exchange between the two countries.
