Between You and Me Exhibition Information


A year ago, Namjoon shared an Instagram post,
accompanied by sweet comments from his younger members.
And get this, SFMOMA themselves proposed a collaboration to Namjoon, and our King Namjoon replied with a heartfelt handwritten letter,,💙🐨🥹
SFMOMA :
He (RM) sent a reply with a handwritten letter,
and the exhibition's other two curators,
América Castillo and
Curator Kim Hyoeun,
said they were deeply moved after reading the letter
due to his sincerity in wanting to introduce Korean art to people. Castillo said,
"His writing contains a very beautiful
poetic sensibility."
Namjoon's words, and even his handwriting, are so moving that
I can't even begin to imagine how truly beautiful they are...
SFMOMA Assistant Curator
Curator Kim stated,
"As a Korean curator,
I desperately wanted to introduce wonderful Korean art and artists
to the United States,
which is why this project holds a very
special significance for me."
Christopher Bedford, Director of SFMOMA,
had this to say to those who wondered if it was appropriate for a renowned celebrity to curate their own collection at a major art museum:

Why am I not in San Francisco right now,
but here in South Korea...?
Our Namjoon,
congratulations on your co-curator debut,,💜
I never thought in my whole life
I'd stan such an artist!

BTS's RM,
as an ambassador for the National Museum of Korea,
even donated a whopping ~$74,019
to be used for acquiring new pieces for their collection!

Thank you on behalf of SFMOMA
for joining us.




He was so adorable...
I also brought the full video of his exhibition speech.
Get ready to be happy for about 10 minutes! ❤️

Between You and Me Exhibition Highlights

Namjoon's writing that is part of the exhibition.
You absolutely HAVE to get the exhibition catalog...
"I am RM of the boyband BTS,
and I am Kim Namjoon, thirty-two years old."

For those who can't make it to San Francisco,
at least through the audio guide,
you can indirectly experience the exhibition.
Thank you! 🙇🏻♀️🙇🏻♀️

It delves deeply into the themes of each gallery, the beauty of everyday life,
and questions about human existence.
To vividly convey the authenticity of RM's voice and life experiences
in both his native and foreign languages,
it was produced not through simple content translation,
but based on two interviews.
*Vroom vroom...*

With all of Kim Namjoon's collected works here,
is his home empty now?
And another point that made SFMOMA feel so warm! ‼️
It's the exhibition gift shop area.

They even tracked down an account that archived books Namjoon read,
and displayed some of the books Namjoon recommended
alongside the exhibition items.
This isn't just a simple collaboration;
it shows thoughtful consideration for Kim Namjoon, the person, and RM,
revealing traces of careful thought...
I just *have* to open my wallet!
RM × SFMOMA Exhibition Merchandise


Online purchases initially didn't offer international shipping...
They made 3 types of hats, t-shirts, sweatshirts, hoodies,
and even eco-bags...
"Why can't I get them?!" cried half a billion people.

They said they'd prepare it ASAP, and then...

It opened yesterday? Or was it the day before?
