Since Gwangju, South Korea and San Antonio, Texas became Sister Cities in 1982, the two communities have forged a friendship that has lasted 40 years. To embrace the traditional and contemporary diversity of art in Gwangju, this exhibition presents a variety of media and introduces the academic thinking and artistic tradition that stems from the abundant nature of the region. The works in Sister Cities: Gwangju to San Antonio embody the spirit and history of Gwangju, and the connectedness between our two cities. Featured artists include: Hwang Young-Sung, Woo Jaegil, Cheng Seon Hooi, Lim Namjin, Seol Park, Haru K, Lee Jung Ki, Jo Eun-sol, Lim Yonghyun, and Lee Leenam.

The opening reception will include guest chefs from Gwangju, providing special bites.
