KIMU:SEUM in New York
This new exhibition at Kate Oh gallery is spearheaded by the design firm Kimu Studio and is a collaborative endeavor with AHRC NYC, the large non-profit organization serving people with intellectual and developmental disabilities in New York City. It presents various collaborative works by international artists with developmental disabilities. The works, which range in content, are characterized by whimsical subject matter and variegated motley palettes.
The works are digital prints and the individual artists include Cory Tyler and Teresa Harris (both from AHRC NYC), Peter An, Teresa Harris, the Re’Generation Movement (an Atlanta refugee youth organization), and Seojun Won (an original designer at KIMUSTUDIO).
Some works, like Captivating, are appropriative—in this case the Nike logo, above which two beady eyes are posited, figuring an adumbrated grinning face. Other works, like Our Sea and I Am Because We Are, are collaborative works with variegated, prismatic flat panels of color—landscapes and bustling diverse crowds. These, like many others, are reminiscent of a GameBoy Color loading screen, the parceling of the pictureplane executed in even, colorful pieces.
The works’ positive, if not auspicious, approach to subject matter is sanguine and rosy-colored. This exuberance is reflected in the tan-peach and cyan-blue sun-soaked backgrounds, as well as the cows, pizza bike, and King bulldogs that form the works’ subject matter. But there is a particular aesthetic approach that distinguishes three different sets within the series, each one taking up a unique stylistic approach. On the one hand, there are the metaphoric works, set in deep starry purples and yellow sinuous curves. These include stretching bustling landscapes like Starry Rain, Home, That Place, Grid Land_Urban, Grid Land-Nature, Mysterious City and Dinosaur City. Here, we are privy to colorful, flashing vertical towers, which cull the Neo-Tokyo-cyberpunk-meets-vaporwave aesthetic. These works are fit with digitality in their subject matter and use of space. Peter An’s imaginative rendering underscores luminescence, cityscape towers plotted atop one another into futuristic semblances. Home, Starry Ran makes similar use of the futuristic ambiance of de-peopled urbanity, gold strokes cast like molden light. Home, That Place, on the other hand, looks backwards, towards a nostalgic rural country landscape.
Illusion_Cozy Dream and Illusion_Summer Night, both abstract pieces by Teresa Harris, are reminiscent of Stan Brakhage’s lead-painted images. Both feature atmospheric planar studies of the environment, the landscape, flora, and fauna reduced to clay- and daffodil-colored strokes. Quite ambiguous, these studies are the sole abstractions in the exhibition. The other KIMUSTUDIO works use the naive digital stroke to appropriate in whimsical ways. None of the appropriations, be they of Chanel or the McDonalds logo, are disparaging or bedaubed with criticality. They are distinct from Pop Art’s attention towards the latent optical pleasure in commercial market platforms’ visual culture. They are, instead, concerned with the malleability of these indices. The throbbing digital stroke in these works utilizes the same whimsical, digital puncturing of pixel-sized constituent pieces that we see in the landscape studies.

Angels Grau “ Invisible Women & Brave Girls”
“Invisible Women & Brave Girls” by Angles Grau
Kate Oh Gallery is delighted to present “Invisible Women & Brave Girls”, an exhibition of acrylic paintings by Àngels Grau, a Spanish artist renowned for her powerful portrayal of both physical and metaphorical strength. Inspired by her daughters, Claudia and Mafalda, this series goes beyond traditional art, offering a bold visual statement that encourages every girl to confront challenges, harness her inner strength, and transform the world.
“Brave Girls” embodies the fearless spirit of the girl who confronted the Wall Street bull, standing as a symbol of courage and resilience. These works capture the ability to rise, lift oneself up, and start again, even when everything around seems to be crumbling.
The series portrays young women who, despite being overlooked or undervalued, face life’s obstacles with heads held high and unwavering confidence. Like the girl who defied the bull of tradition and expectation, each “Brave Girl” represents the power to break down barriers, challenge societal norms, and embrace limitless possibilities. These women are not merely surviving—they are thriving and leading change.
In each painting, Grau vividly depicts the strength, passion, and talent of these young women. Her work conveys both individual stories and the collective spirit of women pushing boundaries and striving for a better world.
At the heart of this series is the message: You Can. Each painting resonates with the belief that great achievements are possible when challenges are faced with courage. “Brave Girls” is not just an art series—it’s a movement for change, inspiring young women to stand up, break barriers, and create their own futures.
“ Wanderer” by Kim Seok-Young
Dates: Oct 1-8th, 2024
“Wanderer” by Kim Seok-Young from October 1-8th, 2024
Kate Oh Gallery is thrilled to present "Wanderer" by Kim Seok-Young, the artist's 33rd solo exhibition.
Opening October 1st in New York, this show introduces Kim Seok-Young, an artist renowned for his powerful expressionist works featuring horses, flowers, and human figures. Kim's diverse practice spans painting, video, and sculpture, blending Eastern spiritual energy with contemporary artistic expressions. For his New York debut in the heart of the contemporary art world, Kim has chosen the theme "Discovery" - a journey to find oneself and our collective identity.
As Robert Morgan writes in the exhibition foreword:
"Viewers will feel a surge of 'qi' (life force) emanating from Kim's works. The artist's boundless energy release connects to the Taoist concept of 'Dao' or 'Way' - essentially a path to enlightenment. There's no set formula for this process. It's like sweeping fallen leaves on quiet temple steps - a means for something to unfold. This exhibition invites us to embark on a journey of self-discovery, asking: 'Who are we, and what are our potentials?'"
In these turbulent times of global environmental crises and conflicts, this exhibition offers a moment to reflect on and rediscover ourselves and our shared humanity.

“Collect Brazilian Jewelry”
Exhibition Date: March 16 - April 1, 2023
The full colors of fauna, flora and nature are the sources of inspiration for this Brazilian art exhibition in NYC.
Collect Brazilian Jewelry, curated by Dorine Botana, holds yet another exhibition in New York with a focus on valuing authorial jewelry and fine arts. The event takes place from March 16 to April 1, at Kate Oh Gallery, in the Upper East Side of Manhattan.
Designer Mírian Machion is one of the artists who will bring her magnificent creations that are full of colors and Brazilian stones. As an unconditional admirer of fauna and flora, Machion transmits these designs through this new collection, Floresta Fanti, emulating the natural beauties of Rio Grande do Sul. The butterflies and dragonflies in these pieces give them movement as they “fly” over the gems.
Dorine Botana also finds her inspiration in nature, and in her current collection, Botana talks about the creation process: “My inspiration always comes from nature, this time I will launch a collection called Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis)”. Botana also highlighted the importance of the special selection of artists participating in the event, where everyone is in tune, with creative and high-quality pieces.
Cristie Boff, born in Porto Alegre and currently residing in Florence, Italy, will brighten up the event with her art and painting. The plastic artist graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Florence and is dedicated to contemporary painting through research into classical techniques. Boff uses rabbit glue as the structure and base of all her canvases, creating nuances and textures that are simultaneously complex and delicate.
Gloria Corbetta, who returns to NY for another exhibition, defines her jewelry as “personal sculptures”. They are small enough to be used as an ornament. They reflect the soul, style and technique of the artist who created them.
Paula Schnapp declares: "My jewelry business stems from my love for gems, rough or polished, small or large, from anywhere, they tell me what they want to be".
In addition to authorial jewelry, the exhibition will feature paintings by the artist Cristie Boff and photographic images by Marisa Abel that were taken on her recent trips to capture the beauties around the world with her lenses.
