In the first week of September, Seoul transforms into one vast exhibition hall. Frieze Seoul and Kiaf open side by side at COEX for the last time this year, while galleries and museums across Hannam, Samcheong, Cheongdam and Euljiro throw open their doors in unison. This marks the final year the two fairs will occupy the same venue simultaneously.
Four days barely suffice to cover the density of shows inside and outside the fair grounds. Add the neighborhood nights that migrate across districts each evening, and the schedule tightens further. A forest woven from 7,000 bamboo stalks, houses stitched from translucent fabric, a basement theater converted into a photo gallery—works worth your time await beyond the fair perimeter.
Nine exhibitions earned PAP's recommendation: Tanabe Chikuunsai IV's bamboo installation, Ed Atkins' video work, Koo Jeong A's new pieces among them. Frieze House Seoul, Gladstone Seoul, Leeum Museum and others speak in different languages from different corners of the city. Some close September 19, others hold through late October.
Which exhibition will top your itinerary? Whether you linger longer inside the fair or beyond it is yours to decide.
