PROLOGATION JUSQU’AU 14 FEVRIER
La Galerie s’est inscrite, pendant cette année 2022, dans un « cycle coréen » avec deux expositions personnelles, de KIM YUN Eun Kyoung et KIM Myoung Nan, puis en proposant une exposition collective dans le cadre de l’ensemble de manifestations liées à la gravure sur bois, en Corée (Gimpo) et à Paris (Centre culturel Coréen, École des Beaux-arts de Versailles), sous le vocable «Affinités, rencontre de Gyeol».Dans cette « suite et fin provisoire » d’affinités coréennes, la Galerie souhaite encore célébrer l’estampe et cet art si spécifique de la gravure sur bois, également par le livre d’artiste. Et célébrer aussi les suites contemporaines, issues de l’art ancestral de la calligraphie, avec des encres peintes sur ces merveilleux papiers de mûrier coréens.

Proposed and organized by Anne Paulus and Sophie Domont, this exhibition brings together, in the same scenographic space, prints (etchings, lithographs, monotypes…) in dialogue with ceramic sculptures. This exhibition will bring together nearly 80 works by 17 French and international artists.

The idea of such a proposal was born from a double interest of the curator artists for these two means of plastic expressions. It appeared to them that a number of visual artists and collectors have developed complementary sensibilities through contact with these two arts, two mediums which, in each discipline, cover a very broad spectrum of techniques and sensibilities.

Printmaking and ceramics are both arts of transposition and unveiling. Indeed, the artist does not directly see the final work appear before his eyes during the creative process. While the engraver only discovers the print once it has passed through the press, the ceramist must wait until the end of the firing process to open his kiln and see the final result of his work.

Structured as a journey through 7 spaces, the exhibition offers to see works in dialogue with each other, revealing sensitive correspondences.
A 68-page catalog has been published for the occasion. It will be on sale on site and by mail order at terredestampes@gmail.com

Two free tours/lectures by the curators will be offered to the public on Wednesday, May 26 (official day of the Fête de l’estampe, French Print Festival) and Sunday, June 6, 2021 at 4pm.
