Do Ho Suh Brings It All Back Home to New York

Do Ho Suh’s first major museum exhibition in New York will feature one of his signature works: a fabric recreation of his former home and studio in the city.

The survey titled I Dream in Another Language is due to open in February 2027 at the Guggenheim Museum and will feature more than 50 works.

The centerpiece will be a life-size, walk-through fabric installation recreating the ground-floor apartment in Chelsea where the South Korean artist lived and worked for almost 20 years. It is constructed from his signature translucent textiles. Suh painstakingly made rubbings of the apartment’s surfaces before leaving in 2016; these will also be included in the show.

The artist says: “To debut the rubbings I made of that building’s interiors at the Guggenheim, in the city I called home for so long, is poignant, as well as conceptually interesting for me.”

Suh has been the subject of solo institutional exhibitions worldwide, including a retrospective currently on view at the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art in Seoul and a major survey at Tate Modern in London 2025.
