Terence Koh (b. 1977) had his breakthrough when he was in his mid 20's. His work was included in the Whitney Biennial in 2004, and the Yokohama Triennial in 2008. His work was the subject of solo exhibitions at MUSAC, León, Spain (2008), Schirn Kunsthalle, Frankfurt, Germany (2008), the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York (2007), Kunsthalle Zürich, Switzerland (2006) and the Vienna Secession, Austria (2005). Koh's work is in the permanent collections of institutions such as the Museum of Modern Art, New York, the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York and the Tate Modern, London.

"Terence Koh creates a space in which memory and imagination mix with art history and subculture. He explores such diverse subjects as mythology, religion, identity, power, fashion and sexuality, in an often provocative manner, charged with possible symbolic readings." (quote from Galerie Thaddeus Ropac)
