Wellside Gallery: Leading the Way in Modern and Contemporary Art in Korea

Published May 10, 2023 04:28 PM

Wellside Gallery, formerly known as Gallery Samtuh, has been at the forefront of presenting modern and contemporary art to Korean audiences since its founding in 1978 by Eum JoongKu. Over the years, the gallery has organized numerous solo exhibitions of notable Korean artists, including Park SeoBo, Yun HyongKeun, Chung ChangSup, Lee KangSo, Lee SeungJio, Son SangKi, and Oh SeYeol. Their works reflect their lives and philosophies with authenticity and sincerity.

In addition, Wellside Gallery has also made efforts to introduce distinguished international artists whose works have rarely or never been exhibited in Korea, such as Charles Arnoldi from the US and aboriginal artists from Australia. The gallery has participated in major international art fairs for decades, including Art Miami, FIAC, Art Toronto, Art Brussels, Art Cologne, Melbourne Art Fair, CIGE (Beijing), and HK Art fair (Hong Kong), to showcase important Korean artists on the global art scene.

With its international outlook, the gallery has earned a fine reputation as one of the premier galleries in Korea. Wellside Gallery remains committed to discovering and promoting talented artists at the forefront of the international art market. It is located at 4, Gomurae-Ro 8 Gil, Seocho - Gu, Seoul Korea, and can be reached at 82 2 514 5122.
