For Wall Drawing #869A, the first person drew a wobbly black line on the wall. Everyone after traced it in red, yellow or blue, and each tracing came out a little different. Thirty people did this: 23 Korean art students and 7 representatives of the LeWitt Estate.

That is how LeWitt worked. He wrote instructions and left the drawing to whoever carried them out: "the idea becomes a machine that makes the art". The show has about 45 works from nearly five decades, moving from early open cube structures to later pieces with more colour. Thirteen are wall drawings made fresh for these galleries, alongside paintings, prints, photographs and archive material.

Thirty people got one set of instructions and drew thirty different results, like a group chat agreeing to meet at Gangnam Station.

Tickets are 18,000 KRW and must be reserved online. Closed Mondays.

Look for

Wall Drawing #869A
A black line traced over in red, yellow and blue by 30 people, so the same instruction shows up as many slightly different lines.
The early open cube structures
The show begins with LeWitt's open cube structures, then moves through nearly five decades to later work with more colour and variation.
