Museum Hanmi Laboratory((formerly) Korea Photographic Culture Research Institute) is an academic research institute established by the Gahyeon Cultural Foundation in January 2009 for the purpose of collecting, organizing, preserving, and researching materials on Korean photography history. Currently, the Museum Hanmi Research Institute is conducting an oral recording project of senior Korean photographers and collecting data on the history of Korean photography. We are collecting and researching the production context and historical meaning of Korean photography through literature and individual and group memories, and through this, we hope to contribute to the understanding of Korean photography culture.
