Gonggan is the third exhibition organized by Léa Gilloire, Yuni Kim, and John Allan MacLean.
Each of our previous shows has taken its title from a language that we speak in our lives – this time from Korean. Gonggan is a word that refers to the concept of space, in both its concrete and symbolic meanings: the space of the exhibition, the studio, but also the interval between places, the field of relationships.
For this exhibition in Pantin, we have taken over a former family workshop that manufactured plastic parts in order to recreate each artist’s workspace, both mental and physical.
We are presenting a selection of our works (paintings, drawings, sculptures, photographs, installations) and part of the space will be dedicated to “work in progress”: studio documentation, research documents, sketches, photographs, texts, and theoretical works.
