The AHL Foundation, a nonprofit organization supporting Korean artists, is presenting a solo exhibition by Hongbin Kim as part of its Art in the Workplace program. The exhibition is being held at the Bank of Hope Manhattan Branch (16 West 32nd Street, New York, NY 10001).
This exhibition showcases two series, MAYFLY and Transcendence of Value, both of which explore questions of existence and value. "MAYFLY"—drawing its name from the short-lived insect—delves into the artist's journey of identity as he transitioned from an established career in Korea to embarking on new challenges in New York. The series captures fleeting moments of beauty through vibrant colors. The luminous yellow background, which seems to glow like gold, evokes a sense of eternity amidst the ephemerality of life.
The "Transcendence of Value" series incorporates framed boxes featuring dollar bills and crumpled paper painted with acrylic, arranged in various compositions. These works question the material and societal values of art, addressing the essence of painting, the sustainability of artistic practice, and the economic viability of art as a livelihood. The series also reflects on how art resonates with society, inviting viewers to contemplate the intrinsic value of art itself.
Born in 1988, Hongbin Kim studied fine arts at Hongik University in Korea before relocating to New York, where they earned an MFA from the School of Visual Arts. In Korea, the artist worked under the pseudonym VANHADA, a term that embodies both the opposing meanings of "to be enamored with" and "to oppose." This duality reflects the artist's creative philosophy, embracing both positivity and negativity.
This exhibition is part of AHL Foundation¡¯s Art in the Workplace program, which aims to make Korean contemporary art accessible to all within the commercial spaces of daily life. Thanks to the partnership between AHL Foundation and Bank of Hope, visitors can enjoy the exhibition at Bank of Hope¡¯s Manhattan branch until June 30, 2025, during Bank of Hope¡¯s operating hours(9:00 AM – 5:00 PM).
