Founded in 2003, Gallery Sklo is the first and only art gallery specialising in contemporary glass art in Korea, presenting emerging and established glass artists as well as international ones. By breaking down the wall of prejudice that glass is a craft material and expanding it into the contemporary art scene, it is creating a new collector.
Work by four glass artists together with metal and textile artists – including Jiyong Lee and Yongjin Chung, who were finalists of the LOEWE FOUNDATION Craft Prize in 2021 and 2022 – will be shown at Collect 2023. Gallery Sklo has participated in major domestic and foreign art fairs such as KIAF Seoul (Korea), SOFA Chicago, Art Palm Beach (USA) and others.
