Tina Kim Gallery is pleased to participate in Frieze Seoul, on view at COEX from Wednesday, September 6th to Saturday, September 9th, 2023. We hope you have a chance to visit us at Booth B19.
For Frieze Seoul 2023, Tina Kim Gallery will feature a presentation of new works by our international roster of artists, many of whom are the subject of major institutional exhibitions in 2023. Works exhibited include emerging and mid-career gallery artists, as well as works from the historical Dansaekhwa artists, such as Ha Chong-Hyun, Park Seo-Bo, and Kim Tschang-Yeul, amongst others. Our presentation of these Dansaekhwa artists coincides with the recent closing of the major exhibition “Only the Young: Experimental Art in Korea, 1960s-1970s” at the MMCA, which will subsequently be on view at New York’s Guggenheim Museum from September 1 through early 2024. To coincide with the “Kim Yong-Ik Archive” exhibition at SeMA AA, on view from August 24 through November 19th, our booth will also feature a major work by the artist. We will also showcase work by the celebrated Suki Seokyeong Kang, whose solo exhibition “Willow Drum Oriole” will be on view at Leeum Museum of Art from September 5 through December 31.
Other booth highlights include work by Pacita Abad. Recognized for her eyewitness accounts of shifting transcultural identities and the challenges of modernity, Pacita is the subject of a North American retrospective that is on view at the Walker Art Center, traveling to SFMoMA, and MoMA PS1. We include new works by Korean-born, Amsterdam-based artist Mire Lee, whose animatronic sculptures evoke bodily functions and environmental decay. Lee’s first US solo exhibition is on view at the New Museum until mid-September. In addition, we highlight new works by Busan, Korea born, Colorado-based artist Maia Ruth Lee, who has newly joined our gallery roster. Her new works represent a deepened expansion of her Bondage Baggage series (2018-ongoing), which was born out of the artist’s long standing concerns surrounding the lived physical and emotional experiences of migration, movement, diaspora, and borders. Expressed through abstract forms, Lee’s work oscillates between states of change and settlement.
