Linking Corporate Cultural Spaces to Foster Young Artistic Talent and Expand Entry into the Art Market
- 25.12.30 / 전윤실
Kookmin University (President Jeong Seung Ryul) College of Design has partnered with GNFood, operator of the oven-cooked chicken franchise Goobne Chicken, to launch an industry-academic collaboration aimed at nurturing young artistic talent and expanding opportunities for entry into the design and craft markets.
On the 22nd, the College of Design announced the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Goobne Chicken, establishing a comprehensive cooperation framework spanning creation, education, and exhibition to enable students to showcase their creative capabilities on a broader stage.
This agreement aims to open corporate cultural spaces to creators, providing opportunities for work presentation and promotion. This will help establish a sustainable online and offline design and craft ecosystem and a virtuous cycle in the art market. Kookmin University's College of Design expects this collaboration will allow students to gain practical experience connected to the real market.
Under the agreement, students from Kookmin University's College of Design will participate in exhibitions and experiential programs at ‘Goobne Playtown,’ Goobne Chicken's flagship store located on Festival Street in Seogyo-dong, Mapo-gu, Seoul. ‘Goobne Playtown’ is a complex cultural space combining exhibitions, experiences, and content production. It will serve as an open platform where students can communicate with the public while directly experiencing the art market and brand environment.
A representative from Kookmin University's College of Design stated, “This agreement provides a meaningful opportunity for students to step beyond the university walls and engage with the actual market,” adding, “We expect that the experience of seeing their creative work connect to exhibitions, content, and ultimately the art market will foster the growth of both their practical skills and creativity.”
This industry-academia collaboration represents a new cooperative model where education, industry, and culture/arts are organically linked, and is expected to further strengthen Kookmin University's practical design and craft education.
