Celebrated Korean artist Do Ho Suh has followed his own path from the very beginning. After receiving a BFA and two MFAs in painting from Seoul National University and the Rhode Island School of Design, Suh jumped forms, studying at Yale’s sculpture department. Best known for his drawings, sculptures and installations dealing with identity, home, displacement and memory, Suh recently started making films, which he began showing at NC-arte in Bogota in 2015 and Lehmann Maupin Hong Kong in 2017 and is currently exhibiting in the Applied Arts Pavilion of the 16th Venice Biennale of Architecture. Internationally exhibited and collected, Suh splits his time between Seoul, New York and London.
Paul Laster has reviewed Suh’s engaging exhibitions for Artnet, Tema Celeste and ArtAsiaPacific and interviewed him about his work for Artkrush. In this talk, he’ll address the influence of Suh’s famous artist father Suh Se Ok and early life in Korea; his nomadic existence since leaving his homeland in the 1990s; his important works about identity, memory and biography; his development from sculptor and draughtsman to installation artist and filmmaker; and his bridging of ideas between the East and the West.
