Seventy artists from 19 countries have collaborated to bring about an exhibition to honour football as Korea co-hosts the World Cup. On three floors this show brings forth a variety of ways to celebrate the games. The artists are, of course, from World Cup nations, including France, Italy, Germany, Argentina, and the host nation. South Korea has worked hard to give visitors a wide variety of activities during their stay here. Football, art, food, music - guests have quite an array of choices of how to spend their time. The Hyundai gallery is located downtown, not far from the cultural centre and City Hall where hundreds of thousands of Koreans have gathered to watch matches on big screen TVs. This exhibit runs through the middle of the month with the Korean games ending on the 29th June with the third place match.
