Not Too Late: A Benefit Exhibition Organized in Collaboration with Art into Acres 3 May - 7 June 2024This May, Charles Moffett is pleased to present a special group exhibition, Not Too Late, featuring new and recent work by 21 artists and organized in collaboration with Art into Acres. A long-term philanthropic partner of the gallery, Art into Acres was founded by artist and conservationist Haley Mellin in 2017 as a nonprofit initiative that transforms the proceeds from the sale of donated artworks into acres of conserved land. Through this special exhibition, the gallery strives to raise collective awareness and catalyze the fundraising for Indigenous-led land conservation. In a testament to the gallery’s steadfast commitment to this cause, Charles Moffett is honored that all ten of the gallery’s represented artists have donated their work to the exhibition; and is deeply appreciative of the generous contributions of eleven artists with whom the gallery has had close and meaningful ties throughout its first six years.Read more

Biography
Julia Jo (b. 1991, Seoul, South Korea; lives and works in Brooklyn, New York. MFA Parsons School of Design 2019, BFA Smith College, 2016). Jo’s practice encompasses a distinctive style of oil painting that incorporates a vibrant color palette to render compositions that oscillate between the figurative and the abstract. While born in Seoul, Jo spent her childhood and adolescence moving between South Korea and states across the U.S.; and she draws upon a deep, personal well of moments lost in translation, social miscues and interpersonal distance to inspire her practice. Her paintings are grounded in the self-doubt, conflict, and misunderstanding that can subsume any relationship, with human forms and familiar objects dynamically rendered through careful line, color, and shadow to simultaneously reveal and conceal. In the last year, Jo has been the subject of solo exhibitions at Charles Moffett, New York, NY and James Fuentes, Los Angeles, CA. In the fall of 2023, she will participate in the esteemed Beecher Residency in Litchfield, CT. Her work is in the permanent collection of ICA Miami.
