Centre Pompidou Hanwha
Scheduled to Open in May 2026
In 2023, the Centre Pompidou signed a four-year partnership agreement to establish the Centre Pompidou Hanwha in South Korea. Designed by architect Jean-Michel Wilmotte, the new museum will be housed within the iconic 63 Building in Yeouido, Seoul’s leading financial district. Spanning 3,000 m², the space will feature two large exhibition galleries.
Over the next four years, the museum will present two exhibitions annually, drawing from the french Centre Pompidou’s modern and contemporary collections. In parallel, a series of curated exhibitions developed in collaboration with contemporary artists will highlight key trends shaping global contemporary art today.
Centre Pompidou Hanwha aspires to serve as a cultural bridge between Korea, France, and the international art community, as well as a new platform for contemporary art in Asia.
