The Korean Cultural Center in Hong Kong said it will present a group exhibition of Korean contemporary art, “From Korea to Hong Kong: Expanding Horizons,” from March 24 through May 30.
The show, tied to “Art Basel Hong Kong 2026,” was organized in cooperation with 11 leading South Korean galleries participating in the fair. It brings together works by 11 artists spanning generations and genres.
Participating artists are Lee Manna (Sun Gallery), Michael Joo (Kukje Gallery), Kim Jae-yong (Hakgojae Gallery), Won Seongwon (Arario Gallery), Kang Kanghoon (Johyun Gallery), Shin Kyungchul (Rian Gallery), Choi Sujin (G Gallery), Lee Jaeseok (Gallery Baton), Lee Yujin (Wooson Gallery), Kim Mooyoung (N/A) and Lee Jonghwan (Cylinder).
The center said the exhibition is notable for bringing together, in one venue, works selected directly by each gallery. It said the space was arranged to highlight each artist’s distinct approach while allowing visitors to experience the show as a cohesive whole, reworking messages and aesthetic directions presented at Art Basel within the center’s galleries.
Visitors will be able to see how different visual languages align, and how styles intersect from emerging artists to midcareer artists active internationally, the center said.
Director Choi Jaewon said this year’s edition aims to present “expanded horizons” by broadening the participating galleries, linking the timing to the fair, and widening the range of generations and genres. He said he hopes it will be remembered as a signature program that offers a chance to encounter Korean contemporary art around the same time each year.
