Gwangju to take a step forward for city of media art
Gwangju, the "City of UNESCO Creative," will greatly expand its media art base and content to strengthen its identity.
The city government said the Art & Media Technology Center, which will be a base for combining modern art and digital technology, will open near the Gwangju Stream in Namgu by the end of the year.
A total of 29 billion won will be invested to build the facility on 9,700 square meters of land with two basement floors and three floors above ground.
The city has also announced the plan to develop nearby areas including the Asia Culture Center and Geumnam-ro street as media art platforms.
