About
Wooseok Museum opened in February 2014, together with Gallery Chung, where visitors can see Wooseok's calligraphy. The opening marked the 15th anniversary of the death of seal engraver and calligrapher Wooseok Choe Gyu-myeong (1919–1999). The museum displays about 450 of his seal engravings, along with the Four Treasures of the Study (brush, ink, paper, and inkstone) that he liked to use and the antique artworks he collected. Gallery Chung rotates more than 1,000 of his calligraphy works. Through a variety of special exhibitions, it also shows how seal engraving and calligraphy have developed in connection with contemporary art.
