Do-Ho Suh was born in Seoul,
Korea in
1962. He received a BFA in painting from
Rhode Island School of Design and an MFA in sculpture from Yale University. He has since had solo exhibitions at such
venues as the Serpentine Gallery, London, Seattle Art Museum,
the Whitney Museum of American Art at Philip Morris, and the Artsonje Center
in Korea. He has also participated in group exhibitions
at the Baltimore Museum of Art, Museum
of Modern Art, New York,
and the 49th Venice Biennale, among others. Interested in the malleability of
space in both its physical and metaphorical manifestations, Do-Ho Suh
constructs site-specific installations that question the boundaries of
identity. His work explores the relation
between individuality, collectivity, and anonymity. The artist's work is represented in a number
of major museum collections including the Museum
of Modern Art, New
York, the Whitney Museum of American Art, the Guggenheim Museum,
and the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles.
Do-Ho Suh lives and works in New
York City.
