Borders and Beyond was arranged in commemoration of the fiftieth anniversary of the Armistice Agreement to provide an opportunity for visitors to consider the issue of separation and the possibilities for reunification.

The exhibition is divided into several sections: documentary photographs of the JSA and DMZ, a photograph collection showing scenes of political and religious conflicts throughout the world, works of art created by Korean artists and a site specific installation by a Swiss artist all in hopes of allowing viewers to rethink the meaning of freedom and peace.
