Art Center Nabi, Korea's first media art museum, led by Director Noh So-Young, has relocated to a traditional Korean house (hanok) in Seochon, a historic neighborhood west of Gyeongbokgung Palace, signaling a new chapter in its journey.

Since its founding in 2000, Art Center Nabi had been operating out of the SK Seorin Building in Jongno-gu, Seoul. Recently, it moved to a hanok located on Hyoja-ro 7-gil, a property acquired by the center in 2014. The new space, now named the "Nabi Future Research Center," serves as its fresh headquarters.

The new headquarters encompasses 284.3㎡ of land with a 132.23㎡ single-story hanok building. The center plans to transform this traditional space into a hub for media art research and projects, symbolically blending Korea's architectural heritage with cutting-edge digital creativity.

Art Center Nabi: A Pioneer of Media Art

As Korea's first dedicated media art museum, Art Center Nabi has played a pivotal role in introducing and promoting media art in Korea. Through innovative exhibitions and programs, the center has consistently explored the intersections of technology and art, solidifying its position as a leader in the field and contributing to the evolution of Korean media art.

This relocation to Seochon is expected to provide Art Center Nabi with a new foundation to expand its artistic vision and further its influence in both the domestic and international media art scenes.
