Axel Vervoordt is pleased to participate in this year’s inaugural edition of Frieze Seoul, Frieze’s first fair in Asia, as well as Kiaf Seoul, South Korea’s long-running international art fair. Frieze Seoul and Kiaf will take place from September 2-5, 2022, and both fairs will be held at COEX. All ticket holders will be allowed entry to both fairs.

This year’s presentation for Kiaf will be a solo exhibition of multi-disciplinary conceptual artist Kimsooja. Her work combines performance, video, photo, and site-specific installation to address formalistic questions as well as sensitive issues of the human condition such as migration, poverty, violence, and the displaced self.

“We’re pleased to participate in two renowned fairs simultaneously, as both organisations have their finger on the pulse of what is happening today in the art worlds of Korea and beyond,” says gallery director Boris Vervoordt. “Our participation is a result of our appreciation for Korean culture and the strong presence of Korean artists within our roster. We’re grateful for the opportunity to create two unique presentations, that although very different, truly make each other stronger.”
