  • 6 years ago
From digital reinterpretations of famous paintings to works that influenced modern design, the Seoul Arts Center -- located in the southern part of capital Seoul -- has plenty to offer for art lovers.
Park Se-young has more.
At this art exhibit in Seoul Arts Center, the visitors are greeted by a digital reinterpretation of Van Gogh's paintings.
From 'The Sower' to 'The Starry Night,' the exhibit delivers the emotions that the artist may have felt when creating his masterpiece.
Renoir's 'Luncheon of the Boating Party' moves in the direction of the partygoers' eyes, while Caillebotte's 'Paris Street; Rainy Day' takes a peek at the alleys unseen in the original painting.
Famous for his love for cats, Matisse's vivid colors were brought to life by some feline help.

"The hardest part was reenacting the stories without falling to shallow enjoyment."

As part of a worldwide tour, the works of 20th century designer Alexander Girard are also being showcased at Seoul Arts Center.
The exhibit, featuring his classic LOVE icon, and pieces that became the origin of modern furniture design, will be on display until early March.
