Exhibition | Bùi Thanh Tâm, 'Here on and after' at Eli Klein Gallery, New York, United States

Eli Klein Gallery in New York is presenting "Bùi Thanh Tâm: Here on and after," the Hanoi-based artist's first solo exhibition in the United States. The show features 13 new and recent paintings that explore Vietnam's colonial history, the aftermath of war, and the persistence of memory. Tâm, a leading Vietnamese painter of the postwar generation, incorporates traditional folk woodblock prints—Đông Hồ, Hàng Trống, and Kim Hoàng—into layered, collaged works. The sunflower emerges as a central symbol of resilience and rebirth, influenced by Anselm Kiefer and Francis Bacon, while addressing trauma from French colonialism to Agent Orange. The exhibition includes series such as "Searching for the Sunflower," "Hello. God is here," "Utopia," and "Mutant," each examining themes of healing, endurance, and cultural transformation.

SeMA opens new retrospective on Yoo Young-kuk, modern master of the 'mountain within'

The Seoul Museum of Art (SeMA) has opened a major retrospective on Korean abstract artist Yoo Young-kuk titled "A Mountain Within Me" at its Seosomun main branch. The exhibition, marking the 110th anniversary of the artist's birth, is the largest ever mounted on Yoo, featuring 178 works including 115 oil paintings and 15 canvases from the artist's family's private holdings shown publicly for the first time. Curated by Yeo Kyung-hwan, the show defies chronology, beginning in 1964 and moving backward through Yoo's Tokyo years and the lost decade after Korea's liberation, then forward through his geometric abstractions of the 1960s and 1970s, culminating in his late "mind-image abstraction" phase after 1980.

Yoo Young-kuk’s inner landscapes spotlighted in Seoul retrospective

The Seoul Museum of Art (SeMA) has opened its largest-ever retrospective of pioneering Korean abstract painter Yoo Young-kuk, titled "Yoo Youngkuk: A Mountain Within Me," marking the 110th anniversary of his birth. Running through Oct. 25 at SeMA's Seosomun branch, the exhibition brings together 178 works, including 115 oil paintings, drawings, photographs, archival materials, and previously unseen pieces, as well as BTS RM's collection "Mountain." Rather than a chronological format, the show begins in 1964—the year of Yoo's first solo exhibition—and moves backward and forward through time, highlighting his geometric compositions and bold primary colors inspired by the mountains and sea of his hometown Uljin.
