The Hammer Building houses the Chinese and Korean collections.[1] The Korean art collection began with the donation of a group of Korean ceramics in 1966 by Bak Jeonghui, then president of the Republic of Korea, after a visit to the museum. LACMA today claims to have the most comprehensive holding outside of Korea and Japan.[63] The Pavilion for Japanese Art displays the Shin'enkan collection donated by Joe D. Price.
