Nestled between the bustling districts of Samcheongdong and Sagandong, Gallery Factory began its life in Palpandong in December 2002. It wasn’t just an exhibition space. Gallery Factory was also an art shop, a place where art could be both admired and acquired. From its inception, Gallery Factory showcased a diverse range of artistic endeavors. It pushed boundaries and embraced the unconventional, blurring the lines between visual art and other forms of creative expression. This commitment to fostering new talent continued after the gallery moved to Changseongdong in Seochon in the fall of 2005. In the shadow of Gyeongbok Palace, Gallery Factory became a hub for both local and international artists, designers, and event organizers. It wasn’t confined to simply displaying art. Gallery Factory actively engaged in collaborations. It hosted exhibitions, commissioned public art, published works, and even developed its own unique design products. Gallery Factory has become a vital cultural resource for Seoul.
