Korean artists are taking the world by storm—but why does their work resonate so widely?

Korean artists are gaining unprecedented global recognition, with figures like Haegue Yang, Do Ho Suh, Lee Bul, and Mire Lee leading a shift from traditional Dansaekhwa abstraction to more conceptual and contemporary practices. The article highlights how K-pop and Korean soap operas have boosted cultural awareness, drawing new audiences to events like Frieze Seoul and prompting major international galleries such as White Cube, Perrotin, and Pace to open in Seoul. Curators and scholars note that Korean art now engages deeply with globalization, historical trauma, and sociopolitical change, facilitated by biennials in Gwangju, Busan, and Seoul, as well as a surge in art institutions.

Frieze Seoul’s fourth edition takes on tariffs and a tough market

The fourth edition of Frieze Seoul (3-6 September) will host around 120 galleries at the Coex convention centre in Gangnam, including mega-galleries like Gagosian, Hauser & Wirth, Pace, David Zwirner, and White Cube. The fair welcomes about 20 new exhibitors, such as 10 Chancery Lane Gallery and de Sarthe from Hong Kong, The Breeder from Athens, Carvalho from New York, Make Room from Los Angeles, and Ota Fine Arts from Tokyo. However, more than 40 galleries are not returning, including Karma, Mariane Ibrahim, Michael Werner, and Neugerriemschneider. The event unfolds amid significant political and economic turbulence in South Korea, including the impeachment of former president Yoon Suk Yeol after a martial law declaration, the election of new President Lee Jae Myung, and ongoing tariff negotiations with the United States, all contributing to a climate of uncertainty.

Seoul appeal: Korean art captivates Indonesia’s affluent connoisseurs

South Korean artist Choi Sang Chul, in his late 70s, held the opening of his exhibition 'Mumool' at Baik Art gallery in Jakarta, Indonesia, on March 20, 2025. The event drew a crowd of wealthy local art patrons, and several of his works were sold before the ceremony ended. Choi, who earned a BFA from Seoul National University and has rejected artistic trends since the 1970s, uses unconventional methods like stones instead of brushes to create his pieces. His work initially received a tepid response at Art Jakarta in 2023, but interest has since grown.
