국립현대미술관 시니어교육의 활성화 방안 연구: 세대통합과 융합교육의 가능성 모색

Abstract

The elderly population is rapidly increasing worldwide, and the proportion of senior among visitors to art museums is increasing. The National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art needs to increase the emphasis on senior education and prepare a mid- to long-term development plan. The purpose of this study is to contribute to the establishment of a systematic art museum education system for seniors through a multi-level review of the direction of expansion of senior art museum education. For the purpose of the study, a Focus Group Interview (FGI) was conducted with six curators at the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art on July 28, 2021, and the interview took approximately 120 minutes. The research results were analyzed from three perspectives and can be presented as follows. First, from the perspective of senior learners, efforts are needed to analyze senior learners in depth, improve educational requirements that are considerate of seniors, and increase accessibility for seniors. Second, from a generational integration perspective, there is a need for an art museum as a place of merit for generational integration, a return and virtuous cycle in education, and specialization and segmentation by program content. Third, from a convergence education perspective, it is necessary to develop cooperation models and specialized programs for professional institutions and develop digital convergence content.
