Opera Gallery Dubai kicks off 2019 with a country-driven exhibition titled “Korean Art – A Contemporary Take on Texture.”

The exhibition will feature a curated selection of recent works by nineteen artists and will cover trends ranging from traditional Korean art up to the Dansaekhwa Movement of the 1970s, or the Minjung Misol from the 1980s onwards. The exhibits will present a panoramic representation of regional craft, with a highlight on texture and each artist’s relationship with uncanny mediums, whether using classical materials like oil paint, ink, ‘Hanji’ paper made from the Korean mulberry tree, or less expected industrial materials like cycle chains, steel nails, polycarbonate or copper piping. Despite their diversity, these creations are generally marked by a calm sense of minimalist clarity.
