“ Invisible Women & Brave Girls” by Angels Grau

October 10 - November 3rd, 2024

Angels Grau Invisible Women 48x48”

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.

“ Impermanent Bubbles” by Pema Rinzin

Dates: Sep 5th - 29th, 2024

Kate Oh Gallery is pleased to announce Impermanent Bubbles, the first solo show of Pema Rinzin at the gallery.

 Bubbles painted with natural dyes and hand-ground mineral pigments fill up Rinzin’s canvases, wood panels, and paper works. The foamy fields are at once planar and dimensional: micro and macro; claustrophobic swarms and vast expanses.

 Rinzin chose the bubble because it cannot be held. It appears shimmering before you for only a moment before it pops. Rinzin understands the main teaching of Tibetan Buddhism to be impermanence. For him, there is much to be learned from contemplating something so small and transient.

 The bubble is not a new shape for Rinzin. In fact, he has been encircling color since he trained to become a master in Tibetan thangka painting. In every Tibetan thangka, there is an offering presented which represents a gem. Either yellow, blue, green, or red, it is a physical offering to the gods. But its abstract rendering reminds us that even if you have nothing material to give, there is always something to offer: a water droplet, an idea, a prayer.

 Rinzin’s past bodies of work have been more figurative. For Impermanent Bubble, he was looking for a process of repetition that paralleled the chanting of a Mantra. “You don’t wear out a mantra,” says Rinzin. “You can do a mantra through all your life into your next life. Collecting one million; two million; three million.” He admits boredom can creep in during the time-consuming repetition of the painting process. But this, too, is an important part of the practice. Cycling through becoming numb, he will once again emerge into the awareness and the sweetness of his efforts.

 As Rinzin developed these paintings, he noticed that the bubbles took on particular characteristics. For instance, certain color combinations caused fields of bubbles to form landscapes. Others suggested the cosmos. Still others, which he calls dropping bubbles, became worlds within world, nested and playing with scale.

Artist Statement

I pursue perfection again today, striving to achieve it with all my might. Yet, I despair as I feel the emptiness of unfulfilled yearning. Is realizing that nothing is perfect the destination of life? What is the standard of perfection?
Today, I torment myself in the pursuit of perfection once more. Let it go. It must be let go. Dot by dot. These form lines. Lines, lines, they reveal surfaces.
Today, hardship and happiness coexist. Perhaps everything is completed when they coexist, where even aging and novelty add depth to the canvas of life.
Is perfection the coexistence of completeness and incompleteness? Today, I meet the me of 40 years ago and face the present me. The weight cannot be measured, but all the emotions that were by my side then led the present me into anger, despair, and regret. In the end, reconciling with all those emotions, I shape the present me, leading me to tomorrow with excitement. Joyful and happy, every moment spent with my art.

Dot, Line, and Surface.


On May 18th, Kate Oh Gallery by Asher Min’s photography exhibition will be part of the “Madison Avenue Spring Gallery Walk 2024” and there will be two Gallery Talks at 2:00pm, and 4:00pm. It is FREE and OPEN TO THE PUBLIC.

Asher Min

May 8-19th, 2024

“Min’s photographs catch us in the dark, which is how he wants them to be. As expressed in “Waterfall of My Dreams”, there are three elements that constitute the subject matter in this work. They include “painting, performance, and photography.” Together, the viewer is invited to concentrate on this work as if the evening waterfalls were actually going to descend, which finally they will, prior to being caught in abstract shapes between the various limits of light that surround their depth and darkness.”
- Robert C. Morgan, art critic
