Bio/Statement:
Taeho Choi is an independent curator based in Seoul, South Korea. His work engages with artistic mobility across East Asia and Europe, focusing on the conditions that enable or restrict movement rather than treating mobility as a given freedom. He is interested in how institutional, economic, and political contexts shape the ways images, narratives, and exhibitions are produced and circulated. His curatorial practice extends beyond exhibition-making to include research, writing, and public programs. Through long-term collaborations with artists working in different regional and institutional contexts, Choi examines how memory and identity are continuously formed and reconfigured through relationships. His recent projects pay particular attention to the uneven realities of mobility and the sensory and emotional traces they leave behind, exploring how contemporary art can respond to these conditions through visual and spatial languages.
Taeho Choi has worked on exhibitions such as Plate Boundary, Boundary Port (International Commissioner), Space ONE Z, Busan, South Korea (2025); Adonis Syndrome (Curator), Galerija ASNI, Riga, Latvia (2025); 13th Ulsan International Woodcut Print Festival (International Commissioner), Ulsan Culture & Arts Center, Ulsan, South Korea (2025); Reflections of Taiwan: Crossroads of Memory and Place (Curator), Soulangh Cultural Park, Tainan, Taiwan (2024); CONNECTING POINT – Slovak & Czech Contemporary Art in Korea (Art Director), Sun Blanket Foundation, Seoul, South Korea (2024); AHRONG GEUMDONG – Cité Open Studio Presentation (Art Director / Curator), Cité Internationale des Arts, Paris, France (2024); South of the Border, West of the Sun – On Multiple Belongings (Curator), Lazy Mike Gallery, Seoul, South Korea (2024); PHENOMENON (Curator), Sun Blanket Foundation, Seoul, South Korea (2024).
