The two galleries will stage a joint booth at the "Hana (花)" section, booth H17, which features emerging and mid-career artists. The VIP preview will be held on the 10th.
Artcube 2.2 will highlight leading Korean contemporary artists Youngwook Choi and Taeim Ha. Youngwook Choi is known for his "Karma" series, which features moon jars inspired by Joseon dynasty white porcelain. His works are included in the collections of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, the Philadelphia Museum of Art, and the Spanish royal family. He continues to expand his international activities, recently holding a solo exhibition at Helen J Gallery in Los Angeles, United States.
Taeim Ha will showcase her ongoing "Color Band" series, which consists of repetitively layered color bands across the canvas. She graduated from the École nationale supérieure des Beaux-Arts de Paris, and in 1999 won the Principality of Monaco Prize at the Monaco International Contemporary Painting Exhibition. Her works are held in institutions such as the Seoul Museum of Art, the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, and the Nouveau Musée National de Monaco.
TAOS GALLERY TOKYO, which will share the joint booth, is a contemporary art gallery that opened in Roppongi, Tokyo in July last year. At this fair, it will feature typographer MIKITYPE, who expands the formative nature of calligraphy into painting, and Kyojiro Kitoh, who has worked on abstract paintings for over 40 years. The booth will present the works of four artists from Korea and Japan in one space.
Jisook Hong, CEO of ArtToken and Artcube 2.2, stated, "Through the works of Youngwook Choi and Taeim Ha, we hope to present the unique aesthetics and contemporary sensibility of Korean contemporary art to local Japanese audiences and collectors," and added, "We look forward to using this as an opportunity to expand exchanges between Korean and Japanese artists and the art scenes of both countries."
