Illustrator Thibaud Herem's solo exhibition 'Le Jardin Fantome: The Dream Garden' at Albus Gallery๐Ÿ’ Thibaud Herem, a French artist and illustrator, and explorer, possesses a unique world of work defined by hand-drawn precise details. This exhibition, his second solo after the one held at Albus in 2018 and returning after four years, reveals the story of an unknown garden as a new series and an extension of the artist's work world. In the grand worldview of the 'Dream Garden,' all the flowers, bonsais, and buildings drawn are a mix of fiction and reality. The visible forms represent the present, but the non-existent fiction beyond the static images amplifies the imagination of the viewers sharing the work. The exhibition features about 30 pieces from the bonsai series and the new work <Hotel Fantome>, alongside large floral works and tree series that have returned on a larger scale. In the basement, it introduces new sketches, including some original drawings featured in the recently aired SBS drama 'That Year, We' and books published so far.

There is no rule that says you have to see an exhibition I made in the fall. You can see autumn as you walk between the buildings. It would be even better if the cultural life was together. You will be able to enjoy the fall by making your own path with your own choices. - An art museum resembling a modern city - Various people flocked to the city. Cities have a great purpose: jobs, but there are many potential opportunities behind them. We are familiar with the concept of 'hourly wage' as a measure of 'how much value can be created in the same time' as anthropologists call it. If you apply this to a city, it becomes 'how many different experiences can you have in the same amount of time?' Modern people with their own tastes and really diverse values are now excessively concentrated in the city of Seoul. Because, as mentioned earlier, in cities, you can fully utilize the potential opportunities. They selectively use the experiences they want to have in their work as well as in their leisure, depending on their individuality. That's why cities don't work as someone planned. Because, more explicitly, no one can predict a human being perfectly. In this context, a variety of cultural spaces are emerging in cities to reflect their unpredictable personalities. Among them, we have the easiest access to and use of the cultural space of art museums. - Whether in the West or the East, historically, this museum has been a representative cultural space. In art museums before the 19th century, similar to the urban plans of the time, the exhibition rooms were arranged according to the exhibition circulation [the movement of people according to the order of the exhibition the moment they entered the museum], but after that, the exhibition movement was decontextualized. With the advent of contemporary art, which creates works of art right in the exhibition hall, there is a big change in the space of an art museum. If it is a representative Korean cultural space, it is the space introduced today. - Unlike the art museums of the past, where you have to move according to the order of the exhibition the moment you enter the art museum, today's art museum does not have a set flow path. It does not require any order from the visitors, only providing a 'transitional space' that connects the exhibition rooms so that the exhibition can be viewed selectively according to individual preferences. This type of art is what we call 'the archipelago type museum'. If there is a characteristic of such an archipelago-type museum, there is the concept of a 'white cube' room that can be easily seen in the exhibition space, but the most important thing is that it resembles the users of potential opportunities flocked to the modern city, that is, city residents with various personalities and tastes. is. As such, today's space is a favorite place for many people. Those who come to enjoy the cultural life at leisure, or for a short outing with children in the courtyard in front of the museum, or as one of the paths to enjoy while going back and forth between Bukchon, use the area of this museum. It shows scenes that are quite different from those of an art museum, which is composed of the strict order of the past and has a solemn and dignified appearance to clarify the spatial territoriality. As if this art museum is part of the city, it serves as a road, a park, and a cultural space at the same time. Also, we can fully read the gesture in the morphological composition of this museum. You can see the shape of the red brick building, which was the former National Army Security Command, and the Gyeonggeundang of Jongchinbu, who was in charge of the affairs of Joseon in the back, as it is, and carefully inserted without harming the scene. In order to realize such gestures and contents, the people who planned and executed the space had to put a lot of effort into it, but the effort is not wasted at all. Because many people enjoy this space with pleasure. - This space is 'to become a cradle of interesting and meaningful exhibitions and creative education for city citizens based on art history'. If you've seen people enjoying the place, you can understand why. - The value of this art museum, which deepens individual tastes through the enjoyment of new art, has great significance as a cultural space in the city, and there is no doubt that it is a space that inspires many artists. - This is an art museum resembling a modern city #National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Seoul. - Location _ 30 Samcheong-ro, Jongno-gu, Seoul [10-minute walk from Anguk Station Exit 1] - Opening hours _ Closed on Tues, Wed, Thu, Sun [10-18], Fri, Sat [10-21], Mon - Parking available - Corona For this reason, we are currently implementing 'watching with distance'. If you would like to use the museum, please make a reservation in advance through the official website. Also, free admission until further notice.
