Description

The Changwon Sculpture Biennale is Korea’s only biennale focused exclusively on sculpture. It is a specialized biennale, much like Skulptur Projekte Münster in Germany, and it has grown into a platform that shapes the cultural identity of the host city of Changwon and helps spotlight local artists.
Changwon-si is extremely well-known in the art world as the home of some of Korea’s most notable sculptors, including Kim Chong Yung(1915~1982), Moon Shin(1923~1995), Park Chong Bae(1935~), Park Suk Won(1942~) and Kim Young Won(1947~). To raise awareness around the world of its ever-growing legacy in sculpture and art, Changwon-si has been hosting a Sculpture Biennale since 2010. Originally, the Biennale began as the “Moonshin International Sculpture Symposium,” honoring the works of world-class sculptor Moon Shin. In 2012, however, the event was reorganized as the Changwon Sculpture Biennale.
