Thaddaeus Ropac has announced that the gallery will open a new location in Seoul, South Korea, with its inaugural exhibition taking place in early autumn.
This upcoming new gallery will be located in Seoul’s Hannam-dong district, in a 750sq m space on the first floor of the outstanding architectural landmark the Fort Hill building, awarded the Korean National Architecture Award 2011 and Seoul Architecture Award 2011 and designed by SAI architects, led by the celebrated architect Juhwan Park.
The bespoke gallery interior will be designed by acclaimed interior designer Teo Yang Studio to create a unique setting for the presentation and experience of exhibitions by the gallery’s artists.
“It is with tremendous excitement that we are establishing the gallery in Seoul and a privilege to participate in and contribute to a city that has such strong and long-established foundations for artistic interchange. Our personal ties to South Korea and with the city of Seoul have grown significantly and it has been an honour to work with major Korean institutions on numerous projects over the years,” said Thaddaeus Ropac, Founder of Thaddaeus Ropac.
