Tina Kim Gallery, established in 2001, has become a vital voice in the contemporary art world by fostering a dynamic program that bridges cultures, generations, and geographies. Situated in the heart of Chelsea since 2014, the gallery presents an engaging mix of solo shows, historical surveys, and collaborative curatorial projects that explore the shifting boundaries of contemporary practice.
The gallery works with a carefully selected roster of international artists and estates, offering a platform that supports both established figures and emerging voices. Among the artists represented are Pacita Abad, Ghada Amer, Tania Pérez Córdova, and Mire Lee—each bringing a distinct approach to material, identity, and narrative. A key focus of the gallery is its growing support for Asian-American and Asian diasporic artists, reflecting a commitment to amplifying voices that have traditionally existed outside dominant Western narratives. Artists such as Maia Ruth Lee, Minoru Niizuma, and Wook-Kyung Choi exemplify this mission, blending personal histories with broader questions of cultural memory and belonging.
Tina Kim Gallery has also played a pivotal role in advancing awareness of Korean Dansaekhwa, a movement defined by monochromatic abstraction and meditative process. By introducing seminal figures like Park Seo-Bo, Ha Chong-Hyun, and Kim Tschang-Yeul to global audiences, the gallery has significantly contributed to a reevaluation of post-war art history through a non-Western lens.
Through its collaborations with curators, scholars, and writers, Tina Kim Gallery continues to shape thoughtful and critically engaged exhibitions. It offers a space where artistic innovation is matched by intellectual depth, positioning the gallery not only as a site of display, but also of dialogue. With each project, the gallery reaffirms its dedication to expanding the conversation around contemporary art and its diverse global contexts.
