SEOJUNG ART is an art gallery that strives to engage with the public as an institution dedicated to exploring new cultural and artistic possibilities, with a focus on contemporary art. Established in 2015, SEOJUNG ART has played a pivotal role in recognizing and fostering emerging talent both locally and on the international stage. Following its success, the gallery has further expanded, opening branches in Busan and in Seoul.
SEOJUNG ART astutely identifies trends in both domestic and international art culture and markets, aiming to propel artists onto the global stage. As part of its mission to foster dialogue with art professionals, the gallery has showcased emerging talents at numerous international art fairs in cities such as Paris, Miami, and Tokyo. Additionally, the gallery is forging connections on the international scene by presenting solo exhibitions featuring artists, like Rusudan Khizanishvili and Guy Yanai, who have not previously been showcased in Asia, especially Korea.
SEOJUNG ART aspires toward sustainability in our timely quest to find aesthetic methods and actionable plans for art, with an emphasis on its public nature. Our ongoing interest spans not just the realm of art but also broader societal issues that are emerging as long-term challenges, which allows us to deliberate on the sustained influence of artistic practices. By offering a new perspective, we are in pursuit of ways for art to gain a footing as a universal value, moving beyond domestic activities and towards global interaction that benefits society as a whole.
In addition to hosting exhibitions, SEOJUNG ART offers educational programs, including art theory lectures and seminars to provide more comprehensive and profound understanding of art. Through persistent and thoughtful efforts to lower the barriers to art and widen its accessibility for the broader public, the gallery seeks to foster a fresh realm of communication, encouraging ongoing dialogue within the community.
In our endeavors, we emphasize enriching the aesthetic value in everyday life and strive to cultivate a progressive international art and culture network. By promoting the artistic integrity and value of creators, we are committed to playing a central role in the advancement of the Korean art scene. With a foundation in artist sponsorship, nurturing, and discovery, we breathe vitality into the art world. As an institution always in pursuit of innovation, we continue to exert a lasting influence.
