Barakat Contemporary

Based in Seoul Barakat Contemporary is Barakat Gallery's new space devoted to exceptional contemporary art drawn from around the globe.

Barakat Contemporary will actively implement research-based projects to continue to explore the points of contact and conflict among diverse cultures through Barakat Gallery’s extensive collection and archives, which encompass the humanities and anthropology. In collaboration with artists who cross-cross the humanity and civilizations, Barakat Contemporary will showcase exhibitions that open up new horizons for contemporary art and will introduce internationally noteworthy artists to Korea, thus supporting artists’ long-term growth.

Barakat Contemporary will produce knowledge and discourse and lead the art scene by not only planning professional exhibitions but also creating arenas for exchange with experts from various fields.
