Jin Meyerson, is recognized for his contributions to the revival of figurative painting in the early 2000's in NYC where he began his career. A pioneer of imaging technology usage in concert with painting, his work bridges figuration and abstraction by engaging with issues of displacement, loss of heritage, post-colonialism, and the expansive Korean diaspora. His recent work employs LIDR scans, AR overlays and the concepts of retro causality, as source and origin in his longstanding investigation of meaning and contemporaneity in painting. His paintings have been featured in extensive solo and group exhibitions globally, including the 2022 Venice Biennale, Italy, Gallery2, Seoul, Johyun Gallery, Busan, South Korea; M Woods Museum, Beijing, China; Zach Feuer Gallery, NYC, United States; Galerie Emmanuel Perrotin, Paris, France, and Hong Kong, China; The Saatchi Gallery, London, United Kingdom; Galerie Nordine Zidoun, Luxembourg; Arario Gallery, Seoul and Cheonan, South Korea; Hakgojae Gallery, Seoul, South Korea, and Shanghai, China; and Pearl Lam Gallery, Hong Kong, China. His work can be found in numerous public and private collections, including: the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, NYC, United States; The Saatchi Collection, London, United Kingdom; Vanhaerents Art Collection, Brussels, Belgium; Dean Valentine Collection, LA, United States; the de la Cruz Collection, Miami, United States; the Speyer Family Collection, NYC, United States; the Yuz Foundation, Jakarta, Indonesia, and Shanghai, China; the Taguchi Art Collection, Tokyo, Japan; MACAN Museum, Jakarta, Indonesia; and the DIB Museum, Bangkok, Thailand.
