Trick Eye Museum
4.0/1
Seoul(Mapo-gu) , Hongik-University-Area

The Trickeye Museum is an art gallery with paintings created using 'trompe l'oeil' techniques that give each 2D art piece the illusion of being in 3D. Instead of merely viewing paintings (as in a typical art gallery) visitors can interact with the paintings, posing themselves just right so that they look as if they are part of the original work. To ensure that even its busiest patrons have time to enjoy the fun, the museum stays open each day until 9PM, making it a popular date and hang-out place.* Opening date: December 15, 2010* Tour course: Trickeye Museum – Ice Museum - Carnival Street* Trickeye Museum's TV appearances1) EBS ‘Bonihani’ (Children’s educational program)Children visited the Trickeye Museum to discover the science behind trick art paintings and to demonstrate the principles.2) KBS ‘Scandal of Masterpieces’Discussion on the new approach/interpretation of the painting ‘Scream’ by Edvard Munch.
