Jun 20, 2024 Yuri Gorbachev Solo Exhibition ‘Museum Collection’(6/20-7/27) Gallery Chang is pleased to announce a solo exhibition featuring the work of the internationally renowned Russian-American artist, Yuri Gorbachev. Drawing inspiration from his childhood memory in Russia, the radiant jewel tones of Byzantine art, and the intricate craftsmanship of Peter Carl Faberge, a famous Russian goldsmith, Gorbachev creates vivid, richly textured paintings through the use of oil, gold, silver, and bronze. Gorbachev’s work, characterized by the application of specially formulated lacquer and glazing techniques, reflects his classical training and expertise in ceramics acquired in Russia. Gorbachev, born in the Soviet Union in 1948, established a successful career as a ceramicist specializing in sculpture in his home country. His native region of Novgorod(Но́вгород) produced one of the foremost schools of icon paintings, established by Andrei Rublyov, who was a disciple of the renowned Byzantine artist Feofan the greek. Gorbachev regards Rublyyov as a major influence on his art, alongside Picasso, Rousseau, Kandinsky, and Malevich. In 1991, upon arriving in the US, Gorbachev transitioned from ceramics to working with oil on canvas, making the beginning of the most prolific period of his career. Since then, Gorbachev has exhibited his work in nearly three hundred exhibitions worldwide. His works also have been widely collected by renowned international galleries and museums, including the Russian National Museum, the Louvre, the National Armenian Gallery, and the Clinton White House, among others. Gorbachev’s global appearances have enabled him to extensively travel, particularly in Asia. The inspiration he gained from his trips to Asia has profoundly shaped his art-making, leading him to leave the cultural influences froths journeys and childhood memories into his canvas. In 1995, Gorbachev went to Bali, and the profound impact of this previously unfamiliar culture led him to incorporate Indonesian motifs as a central element in his still-life series. For instance, flower hold significant importance in Balinese culture, being used in ceremonies for all life events, including brith, death, and everything in between. Gorbachev’s longing for his homeland also plays an important role in his art. In his landscapes series, Gorbachev channels this nostalgia into a vibrant kaleidoscope of Russian scenes. His works depict vivid visual imagery, including a racing troika and buildings reminiscent of Moscow’s iconic St. Basils’s Cathedral, against the backdrop of snowy, idyllic countryside. Sometimes Gorbachev blends a diverse array of visual tropes from still life and landscape series into one canvas, featuring wild animals, lush flora, and enigmatic figures carrying a symbol of the sun, moon, and star. His unique way of juxtaposing various cultural influences yields paintings that reinterpret both Asian and Russian myths, fairy tales, and landscapes, thereby opening up a realm of curiosity and imagination. Notably, Gorbachev’s art stands out for its ability to interweave diverse cultures and imagery, brought to life through vibrant colors, dynamic figures, and imagination.

JUL 25 – AUG 5, 2025 Intro Installation Views Artwork Next C1 New York & C3 Middletown CHASE Project: Phase Shift JUL 25 – AUG 5, 2025 Shin Kiwoun / Kim Hongbin / Anon / Anikoon / Im Jibin / Koo Nahyun INTRO CHASE Project: Phase Shift Once a proud symbol of financial power, first as the Bank of New York in the 1960s and then as Chase Bank in the 1990s, this building no longer serves its original purpose. In an age shaped by a global pandemic and rapid digitalization, grand bank buildings like this have become obsolete. The meaning and function of this space have reached a turning point. Now, with only its steel skeleton and memories remaining, the building stands on the brink of transformation. Reborn as “The Bank,” it will become a hybrid cultural space where food, art, and residence converge. The exhibition CHASE Project: Phase Shift marks the beginning of that transformation. It is both a statement and a scene of change. “Phase Shift” refers not to simple change, but to a fundamental transformation in function and meaning. The six participating artists respond not only to the building’s physical structure, but also to the emotional, cultural, and existential resonances carried within this shift. Shin Kiwoun approaches the essence of existence through physical abrasion and disintegration. Using sanders and grinders, he wears down various everyday objects such as coins, figurines, cassette tapes, books, and cell phones. His process erases form while embedding time and memory into the material. This gesture was inspired by a semiotic question he encountered in graduate school: is a chair better represented through an image, a word, or its real presence? Ultimately, he began to wonder about the chair in its molecular or atomic form. What began as a material experiment evolved into a meditative practice. Objects with vivid colors and clear structures are ground down into a gray powder, revealing the boundary between presence and absence, between memory and forgetting. His work questions how a stripped object might recover meaning, and suggests that transformation can be a quiet return to essence. Kim Hong Bin visualizes the inner reality of change through layered clashes of color and texture. Paint accumulates on canvas, only to be scratched, torn, and burst. Within the boldness of primary color and apparent chaos lie fragments of feeling, memories of rupture. His compositions remind us that transformation often breaks equilibrium and calls for new structures to emerge. Anon constructs sculptural surfaces that express sensory layering, using color and texture as core visual language. Through repetition—layering, tearing, rolling, attaching—she creates bas-relief works using textiles, paper, and fiber. These forms stimulate both touch and sight, forming spaces that resonate emotionally. Her compositions, both rhythmic and organic, breathe quiet vitality into the architectural shell. In this exhibition, she lends warmth and emotional texture to a transitional space, gently illuminating the inner tremors of change. Anikoon proposes a playful and sensory response to change through whimsical form and color. His robot-like sculptures, adorned with buttons, gears, and vibrant hues, are not functional machines but agents of imagination. Beyond their visual charm, they speak to the joy and surprise we hope to find in unfamiliar moments of transition. Im Jibin reactivates abandoned spaces by combining architectural scale with poetic imagination. His large, balloon-like figures press out through windows or emerge from vacant interiors. These playful interventions bring humor and energy back into deserted structures. His work visualizes a longing for spaces where people might gather again and reconnect. Koo Nahyun captures the persistence of human intimacy within environments in flux. Drawn directly onto walls, her figures and animals share quiet moments of warmth, even in the midst of collapse. The faded tones echo the building’s incompleteness, while her compositions remind us that familiar emotions can survive inside unfamiliar spaces. Change does not always mean something new. Sometimes, it is what stays that matters most. This is no longer a vault, but a vessel for possibility. marks the beginning of that transformation. INSTALLATION VIEWS ARTWORK

Apr 3 - May 6, 2025 Intro Installation Views Artwork Next C1 New York Illuminated Reflection Apr 3 - May 6, 2025 Jimi Gleason INTRO In Illuminated Reflection, Jimi Gleason invites viewers into a luminous realm where light is not merely an element, but a guiding force—shaping perception, revealing form, and transforming space. Guided by Light, as the artist describes, is both a philosophy and a process; it is the invisible collaborator behind each surface, each layer, and each shift in color or sheen. Working primarily with silver nitrate and iridescent pigments on canvas, Gleason explores the interplay between light and materiality. His recent works—featured in this New York solo exhibition—extend beyond the traditional boundaries of painting, transforming static surfaces into reflective environments that evolve with the viewer’s movement and the space’s ambient light. Rather than presenting a fixed narrative, Gleason offers a meditative experience: one that encourages stillness, observation, and the subtle revelations that occur when the ordinary is illuminated. His work challenges us to slow down and see—truly see—not just what lies on the surface, but what is shaped by the unseen presence of light. As we navigate the luminous passages of Illuminated Reflection, we are reminded that light is not just what helps us perceive the world—it is also what reveals our place within it.
