Free Seoul Exhibition: 'Becoming Each Other's School' at ARKO Art Center (Aug 7–Sep 27)
Seoul has another free exhibition this August! The ARKO Art Center, operated by the Arts Council Korea, presents "The Art of Learning: Becoming Each Other's School," an emerging-artists exhibition running Aug 7–Sep 27, 2026, with free admission — a must-see for art lovers and culture-seeking travelers.
About the exhibition
"Becoming Each Other's School" is an emerging-artists exhibition joined by dong-in (artist circles), collectives, studios, art spaces, and schools that independently organize the courses, gatherings, and workshops they need. Centered on shared interests, it examines the momentum and attitudes of self-organized subjects who have come together to sustain creation and activity in the art field, speaking to the practice of learning through collaboration, co-creation, knowledge-sharing, and peer-making.
Rather than an exhibition as an end product, it aims to become a site that generates questions, where creation arises and peers are made in the process itself. Throughout the run, small gatherings and programs will bring artists, peers, and audiences together, revealing stages of practice, experimentation, and research.
