The Serpentine Gallery presents Korean artist Do-Ho Suh's first solo exhibition in the UK. Born in Seoul, Korea, in 1962, Suh emigrated to New York in his late twenties, and his intricate sculptural and architectural installations draw on his experiences in both his native and adopted countries to explore issues of place and identity.

Arts Council of Great Britain. Today the Gallery attracts
over 400,000 visitors a year and is one of London's most
loved exhibition sites for modern and contemporary art.
