SEOUL, Apr. 5 (Yonhap) -- The Gimhae Art Museum of the Gimhae Cultural Foundation will hold a special exhibition, titled “Safe Horizon: Baltic Contemporary Ceramics,” from Friday as its very first exhibition of this year.

This upcoming international exchange exhibition will feature 210 ceramic works by 75 artists from three Baltic countries in Eastern Europe (Estonia, Lithuania, and Latvia), which tout long history and rich expressive pottery culture.

The Clay Ark Gimhae Art Museum, which organized the exhibition, will present works of artists from the three Baltic countries that deal with rather controversial issues and discourses of our time, including the COVID-19 pandemic, capitalism, environmental issues, and war.

The exhibition will be available until July 30, and it will be closed every Monday.
