Pontone Gallery, located in central London, has long been introducing Korean artists to the city’s art community. For over ten years, Pontone has brought new and established contemporary Korean artists to the attention of the global art scene.

The gallery has served as a stage for Korean fine and performance artists to showcase their work, offering opportunities regardless of genre and without prejudice toward age or status within the art community.

In January and February 2021, as galleries around the world continued to suffer from difficulties caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, Pontone showed unwavering support for Korean artists by presenting the group exhibition South Korean Contemporary Art, featuring the works of Choi Soowhan, Hong Sungchul, Hwang Seontae, Mari Kim, Lee Jungwoong, and Lee Leenam. Pontone Gallery’s support for Korean artists is hoped to continue in the years ahead.
