Biography

Terence Koh is a Chinese-Canadian artist who has exhibited throughout the United States and abroad. His work has been the subject of several major solo exhibitions at Museo de Arte Contemporáneo de Castilla, Leon; Schirn Kunsthalle, Frankfurt;  Phillips de Pury & Luxembourg, Zürich;  Peres Projects, Berlin; and The Whitney Museum of American Art, New York.

Koh is celebrated for his dramatic, monochromatic sculptural installations and performance art, and founded his career with handmade books, ‘zines and prints. Art writer Mark Speigler explains in New York magazine that “what intrigues curators and collectors is that with each installation, [Koh] is constructing an idiosyncratic and visually stunning universe.”

In 2008, Vito Schnabel presented Flowers for Baudelaire at Richard Avedon’s former studio in New York. The exhibition featured  approximately thirty paintings that marked the artist’s debut in this medium.
