From Super Bowl LX at Levi\u2019s Stadium to the return of the Bay Lights<\/a>, there\u2019s so much to look forward to this year<\/a> around the Bay Area. But K-pop fans and museumgoers currently have their eye on the newly-announced RM x SFMOMA exhibition debuting in October 2026.<\/p>\n RM, famous for being the leader of the iconic K-pop group BTS, has collaborated with SFMOMA to present an exclusive new exhibition featuring pieces from his personal collection.\u00a0<\/p>\n RM x SFMOMA<\/p>\n RM himself curated the exhibition with co-curators Am\u00e9rica Castillo and Hyoeun Kim of SFMOMA. His personal collections feature modern and contemporary pieces by Korean and international artists, which SFMOMA presents in dialogue with works from the museum\u2019s own holdings.<\/p>\n SFMOMA and RM\u2019s October exhibition announcement posts racked up millions of likes on Instagram, signalling clear enthusiasm for the exhibition even 1 year out.<\/p>\n \u201cAt the end of last year, when I first heard from SFMOMA, the excitement still comes vividly to mind, as if I were sketching out countless ideas all over again,\u201d wrote RM. \u201cSince I began visiting museums in 2018, I\u2019ve been learning and collecting step by step, and it feels both humbling and meaningful to now prepare this exhibition.<\/p>\n \u201cI would be honored if you could visit with an open heart.\u201d<\/p>\n RM x SFMOMA is scheduled to run from October 2026 through February 2027.\u00a0<\/p>\n More exhibitions coming to SFMOMA in 2026<\/p>\n In addition to the RM collaboration, SFMOMA has announced an exciting lineup of exhibitions and installations opening this year.<\/p>\n Standouts include Feel the Beat: Dance in Photographs, an exploration of photography and dance opening in May; as well as Matisse\u2019s Femme au chapeau: A Modern Scandal, which examines Henri Matisse\u2019s controversial 1905 painting in dialogue with his contemporaries.<\/p>\n Several new site-specific installations will also open at SFMOMA in 2026, including Jacob Hashimoto\u2019s\u00a0Giant Arc, which features an enormous sculpture made of hand-built kites and paper starting in August; and Rose B. Simpson\u2019s Behold, a 24-foot outdoor sculpture opening in January that honors Indigenous legacies.<\/p>\n \t\t\t\tSan Francisco Museum of Modern Art<\/p>\n \t–<\/p>\n \t4.6
