Destination briefing
Why travelers stop here
Urban Art is a gallery that has been introducing influential contemporary artists and their works from both Korea and abroad since 1995. Early on, it sought specialization in the art market, launching as a contemporary art consulting and planning company, building a solid foundation through diverse experience. Leveraging this expertise, in 1999 it operated as an official art dealer for the global auction house Sotheby's. Additionally, it actively engages internationally by holding exhibitions of competitive contemporary artists from Korea and abroad in the global art market and participating in major overseas art fairs such as Basel and Miami to introduce talented Korean artists.
Urban Art has now expanded beyond the role of a simple gallery, elevating the scope of art business to a new level. Since 2003, it has been operating a public studio for research and design in environmental sculpture art, alongside a business supplying high-quality landscaping structures from abroad.
