초록

도시 경쟁력 제고 수단으로 문화 및 예술에 대한 관심이 고조되고, 창조경제에서 문화 및 예술 산업의 중요성이 주목 받고 있다. 서유럽과 북미를 중심으로 도시 재활성화 및 젠트리피케이션 과정에서 아티스트 및 미술관의 역할에 대한 다양한 연구가 이루어졌으나, 예술 작품과 문화 소비자를 매개하는 상업 화랑들의 입지 패턴과 요인에 대한 경험적 연구는 거의 이루어지지 않았다. 특히 아시아 대도시의 도심 재개발 및 젠트리피케이션 과정과 문화 소비 공간 확산에 대한 경험적 연구는 부족한 상황이다. 본 연구에서는 서울시 상업 화랑을 중심으로 아트 클러스터의 성장과 쇠퇴 과정을 이해하고, 그 분포 특성을 도시의 역사성과 시대적 특성, 예술가 집단의 성격과 연결시켜 설명하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 런던과 뉴욕과 같은 대도시에서 아티스트 및 화랑이 클러스터를 형성하는 배경을 아티스트의 생태, 아트 비즈니스의 특성, 세계화의 영향을 중심으로 고찰하였다. 서울의 화랑 입지는 예술가나 문화적 요인보다는 상업적 논리에 의해 결정되고 문화소비공간으로 쉽게 전환되는 경향이 있으며, 화랑의 분포는 도시 개발 정책과 맞물린 지대의 상승, 문화 소비 취향의 변화, 국내외 미술 시장의 경기 변동에 따라 역동적으로 변화하는 입지 주기 순환 양상을 보인다.

Culture and art are emerging as main components in the creative economy to enhance the competitiveness of urban centres in the global market by nurturing cultural or artistic industries. A range of research exists which investigates the role of artists and art museums in the process of urban regeneration in Northern American and Western European countries. Yet research into the geography of at galleries acting as an intermediary between art works and cultural consumers remain rare. Empirical research on gentrification and urban regeneration and their connection with spaces for cultural consumption in Asian cities is even less common. The aim of this paper is to show the rise and decline of art galleries in Seoul and the way that this reflects urban development process, historically specific conditions and the characteristics of artists' communities. The background of the locational agglomeration of an galleries is examined in connection with the human ecology of artists, art business and its implication for the global market. The location of art galleries in Seoul seems to be affected by commercial art business and public policy, rather than by artists communities embedded in local areas. The location dynamics of art gallery clusters in Seoul is examined in the context of rent increases, changes of consumers' taste and fluctuating market cycles.
