altblog – Na kim
With a background in graphic design, Na Kim creates expansive work that freely traverses the boundary between fine art and design. By doing away with pre-existing rules and symbolic meanings, Kim studies the essential elements in form, rearranging it based on its geometric standards.

In « SET, » Kim’s work from the past 10 years will be exhibited in one space, and a namesake catalogue will be shown as part of the exhibition. Regardless of production year, medium, commission, etc, the catalogue comprises of design and other works that are reordered according to the visual elements found in each work.

The production and editing of this catalogue is a collaborative effort with graphic designer Joris Kristis. As it is the first time Kim has handed over the designer role to another person, she intends to redefine the notion of the artist and the designer’s role.

Along those lines, the wall and floor space of the exhibition will be divided in a similar proportion as the catalogue’s design, then the works in the catalogue will be made into wall drawing, serving as the set for a performance that will coincide with the visual aspects of Kim’s work.

In this way, Kim’s work brings out the intrinsic distinctions between fine art and design, tearing down the boundaries of process and form. And by expanding into the realm of installation and performance, the artist shows the possibilities of a cohesive and unified body of work. It is these reconstituted and restructured heterogeneous elements that point towards and reveal new meaning and potential.

altblog – Delphine Burtin
«By hijacking objects from their everyday use and reassigning their significance, the arbitrary combinatory game generated by Delphine Burtin results in a surprising photographic language, in which objects we thought we knew become unfamiliar and the incongruous associations they set in train undermine our conventional representations.»

altblog – Franck Landron
Quasiment inédite, l’oeuvre photographique de Franck Landron est pourtant colossale. Commencée en 1971 sur les bancs du Collège Saint-Martin de France à Pontoise, elle est depuis constituée d’un flux ininterrompu. Le fonds est actuellement évalué à plus de 300 000 images. Deux expositions dévoilent la première période, des années soixante-dix au début des années quatre-vingt dix, selon des approches différentes.

Réplique instinct
inserts an often neglected dimension, that of improvisation and intuition, the instinct for life where gains are inseparable from losses, progress from disappearance.
