Gathering over one hundred artworks and archival materials from across her short but prolific career, as well as select loans of works by Cha and other artists, the exhibition highlights the inventive, playful, and meditative methods of Cha’s practice while also situating her work within a constellation of artistic forebearers, peers, and contemporary artists for whom she has long been a lodestar.

Theresa Hak Kyung Cha: Multiple Offerings is the first retrospective in over two decades dedicated to the groundbreaking work of the artist Theresa Hak Kyung Cha. Beginning her artistic career in the Bay Area during the early 1970s, Cha produced an expansive range of works across text-based media, video, and performance. Best known for her posthumously published book, Dictee (1982), which weaves the personal and familial into historical narratives of displacement through word and image, Cha’s interdisciplinary practice gave shape to the experimental art scenes in San Francisco, New York City, and beyond.
