ARARIO GALLERY opened its first Chinese branch in 2005 in the Jiu Chang Art District, Beijing. The Beijing space, which operated successfully for over seven years, closed its doors in 2012. In 2014, ARARIO GALLERY SHANGHAI opened in Xujiahui, Shanghai, operating until June 2017. It then relocated to West Bund, Shanghai, from July 2017 to August 2020, and once again within the West Bund from October 2022 to April 2024. The gallery has played a significant role in introducing the works of not only Korean artists but also a diverse range of Asian artists from Japan, India, China, the Philippines, and Indonesia to the Chinese art scene. Building on decades of experience and expertise, ARARIO GALLERY SHANGHAI reopens its new space in Jing’an District, Shanghai, in March 2025. As the oldest Korean gallery in China, ARARIO GALLERY SHANGHAI is firmly established and continues to provide a sustainable foundation for Asian artists through the continuous discovery of emerging talents and the creation of advanced exhibition opportunities.
