MMCA Gwacheon's International Masterpieces: Water Lilies and Chandeliers runs from October 2, 2025 to January 3, 2027 in Circular Gallery 1 on the first floor. The official page lists 44 artworks by 33 international artists, including Claude Monet, Ai Weiwei, Barbara Kruger, Renoir and Picasso. Its title joins Monet's Water Lily Pond with Ai Weiwei's Black Chandelier, inviting viewers to consider nature and constructed objects across different periods.

The exhibition detail lists a Gwacheon admission ticket at KRW 3,000. Check the museum's visitor guidance for concessions, ticketing and any free-admission exceptions. Confirm guide talks or educational activities separately, and note that the gallery is on the first floor. Official artwork images have not been copied because reuse rights are unverified.
