Changyeol Gu translates the sensorial language of plants—acquired through growing up near lush fields and overgrown meadows—into a painterly language of his own. Observing how natural forms continually shift their appearance through colour and shape, the artist identifies mechanisms of seduction devised for reproduction and systems of protection evolved for survival. These elements are perceived not merely as formal characteristics of nature, but as autonomous languages in themselves.

By radically enlarging or intensifying the structures through which plants communicate and endure—such as the arrangement of pistils and stamens, the colours and scents that attract pollinators, and the thorns and hairs evolved for defence—the artist summons onto the canvas the distinctive wonder of what he terms “speaking plants.”

Since its establishment, Gallery Kabinett has aimed to play a pivotal role in managing and establishing promising artists, both domestically and internationally. Through strategic institutional introductions and comprehensive artist development programs, we seek to explore the various possibilities of visual arts by close collaboration with other industries.

We strive to enhance the competitiveness of Korean art and align it with global standards, all while showcasing Korean artistic elements to ultimately exert significant global influence.

Gathering toward dispersal

Some landscapes touch the body before they are understood. Standing before Seonghwa Hong’s paintings is like stepping into the stillness of a hushed dawn.
As Merleau-Ponty suggested, seeing is not a mere act of analysis but a way of being intertwined with the world. Figures adopt the pulse of plants as their breath and the patterns of leaves as their skin. By emptying the self rather than imposing artificial definitions onto the raw linen, Hong allows her subjects to enter the space on their own terms. Through the patient accumulation of layered color, the canvas gradually reaches a density that lifts itself toward a moment of quiet liberation.
Here, time suspends its horizontal flow and sinks into depth. Moving beyond artificial definitions, this exhibition becomes a serene first breath—inviting us to sense the true texture of existence, momentarily freed from the frantic pace of the world.

Testosterone 02

Kim Joo-hyun's current works represent a series of creative endeavors striving to exclude conventional drawing devices, such as vanishing points, which were habitually employed in the past. While the artist intervenes to generate images on the canvas, the work is completed by focusing solely on creating color, ensuring meaning and intention do not surface. Water-based acrylic paint is applied horizontally, allowed to settle and dry, or tilted to induce flow. Through this process, the canvas reveals a natural visual topography. The “stability derived from uncertainty” mentioned by artist Kim Joo-hyun does not resolve into form, stemming from an effort to constantly evade things defined and fixed by meaning. Since neither subject matter nor theme drives the image, the completed work evokes the artist's experienced synesthesia and fleeting moments.

Pageroom8 aims for an organic and infinite relationship between exhibitions and books. With the opening of a space in March 2021, special exhibitions are being held in earnest. The exhibition is largely composed of several series projects and special exhibitions, efficiently and intensively introducing the works of emerging and established artists.

Still Life on the Table-Cherry Cake

This work was composed while imagining a group of forms—possibly plants or animals—ascending a steep terrain. It emerged from a chain of reflections on the meanings embedded in the act of “climbing.”

While considering how one might endure the longest on sharply inclined ground, the artist arrived at the idea of ascent, ultimately realizing that all such methods are ways of efficiently resisting gravity. This line of thought naturally extends to a meditation on “standing,” connecting the work conceptually with the accompanying piece, ‘둥글납작하게 서 있는’.

CDA is a gallery stands for ‘Creative’, ‘Discovery’, and ‘Appreciation’. The gallery mainly presents creative activities in various fields of contemporary visual arts in the form of exhibitions. CDA exhibition mainly focuses on paintings but subjects to all kinds of genres and mediums such as sculpture, prints, photography, animation, and video. The form of the exhibitions is also balanced, with a mix of solo and group exhibitions, as well as art fairs and collaborative projects. We sincerely hope that our activities will serve as a spark for the realization of meaningful projects for creators(artists) and an opportunity for audiences to expand their inspiration and collecting.

오르는 모습들 Ascending Forms

The forms depicted by artist Bac Jung-won seem to transcend mere observation, as if they were penetrating and dissolving into their very existence. It is as if one tunes into their self-awareness, accepting the sensation of time. Though oil paintings, the toned-down colors and watercolor-like silhouettes, rendered with relatively high saturation and transparency, are positioned precisely where needed. They make us see the actual, moistly water-laden forest, the grapevine, and the waves crashing in the deep night. The artist's subjects are somewhat distant from those we associate with linear life cycles. Perhaps the simultaneous coexistence of transience and eternity felt within them represents a twisted sense of time—one that embraces even the clumsy death that no one can truly know unless experienced.

“Translation does not repeat the original; it expands its possibilities.” by Walter Benjamin
This statement by Walter Benjamin describes precisely how Hwang Hyeyoung’s Nana’s Wonderland operates. Borrowing the structural framework of Alice in Wonderland, the artist brings it into her own pictorial universe, opening new imaginative possibilities.
At the center of the exhibition, the fairytale book and the paintings mirror one another, forming a “living story” that the viewer enters rather than reads page by page. Nana’s Wonderland is not a simple variation on a narrative; it is a process in which text and image build a world together. Nana’s journey becomes the first scene through which the artist reveals how her artistic world expands and reconstructs itself.

Through Lines of Sight, SPACE776 Seoul poses a question central to contemporary art: not simply what is depicted, but under what conditions one looks. Situated at the intersection of the visual history shaped by the modern invention of the automobile and contemporary painterly sensibilities, the exhibition quietly reveals the flows and rhythms that emerge as disparate lines of sight overlap within a shared space.

Space776 exhibits early to mid-career artists who work in a variety of mediums ranging from live multimedia performance art to traditional oil painting. The gallery accommodates artists from around the globe, taking their works to local and international art fairs such as Volta New York, Volta Basel, Art Miami, Palm Beach Modern + Contemporary, and Art Busan. 
Space776 was founded in Bushwick, Brooklyn in 2013. In 2020, the gallery relocated to its current residence at 37-39 Clinton Street on the Lower East Side of Manhattan. Space776 also opened a location in Seoul, South Korea in 2020 in accordance with the gallery’s mission to promote the international exchange between local New York artists and the Korean artistic sphere.

“Crying Bird” is a figurative painting. The emotions of the surviving bird, which laments the loss of the departed mate, and the viewpoint of the world watching it coexist in work. The artist creates a narrative of conflicting feelings within the canvas using a contemporary interpretation of Oriental painting, including flowers blooming and falling, a cat playing, a dead bird, and a bird weeping. The artist's belief that everyday life is nonsense is revealed by the contrast between the unassumingly beautiful landscape and painful emotions.

This limited edition by Philippe Parreno is a unique object consisting of a custom-made plexiglass box, a special, clothbound edition of the Revue and its accompanying booklet and a double-sided print of Parreno’s Iceman (2020), 2023, in two stages.

Founded in 1926 by Christian Zervos at 14, rue du Dragon in the heart of Saint-Germain-des-Prés, Cahiers d’Art encompasses a publishing house, a gallery, and a revue. The Cahiers d’Art Revue was entirely unique when it was introduced, and it still is: a revue of contemporary art defined by its combination of striking typography and layout, abundant photography, and juxtaposition of ancient and modern art.
Between the 1920s and the mid-1970s, Cahiers d’Art published ninety-seven issues of the Revue and more than fifty books on fine art and architecture, as well as the thirty-three volume catalogue raisonné of Pablo Picasso. After its acquisition and relaunch in 2012 by Staffan Ahrenberg, an editorial board comprised of Sam Keller, Hans Ulrich Obrist, Isabela Mora, and Staffan Ahrenberg was created. Cahiers d’Art has since published several new Revues and art books devoted to Ellsworth Kelly, Rosemarie Trockel, Hiroshi Sugimoto, Alexander Calder, Pablo Picasso, Thomas Schütte, Gabriel Orozco, Joan Miró, Lucas Arruda, Ai Weiwei, Arthur Jafa, Frank Gehry, Christo, and others. From the 1920s till today, Cahiers d’Art has maintained a gallery, exhibiting the artists it publishes.
Cahiers d’Art continues to fulfill its mission to be the cultural bridge between the avant-garde of Picasso, Duchamp, and Le Corbusier, and the leading artists and architects of our time.

Philippe Parreno, Limited edition including original artwork

Passionate about prints, Lee Ufan had, for many years, the desire to succeed in creating an extremely long etching. He wanted to push horizontality to its limits. It was at Michael Woolworth’s studio that he was able to realize this dream. Confronting himself, with all his physical strength, to the hardness of the steel plates and the vastness of their length, he created two different works as two ways to explore an infinite trajectory. Together an artistic, physical and technical feat, these impressive etchings are the result of a very intense cooperation between the artist and the entire workshop team.

SoYeong Kim has been constructing illusionary images through an expressive painterly style that maximizes the effects of light. In her work, darkness deepens in response to illumination, while the gaze emerges with heightened clarity. The areas of light, rendered as empty spaces within the composition, possess a translucent, screen-like texture—prompting viewers to reconsider the very nature of the image.
By sensitively capturing the boundary between the image projected onto fragmented elements and the image generated by light itself, Kim seeks to illuminate the essence of visual experience and the moment an image comes into being.

<Watchtower#2> is a piece from the project "Habitat," which signifies a study of the way flat paintings are displayed and their expansion into space. It represents an attempt to expand the domain of painting by applying the connection and method between the artist's current work and living in the same space and reconfiguring and relocating it to new spaces around them. The project centers on flat paintings and includes the surrounding living area and elements that influence them in the exhibition layout. By connecting with environmental elements, it amplifies emotions and often provides clues for conceptualizing future works through installation activities.

Rooted in the principles of Eastern painting, Hong Seonghwa expresses the rhythm of emotion through line and void. Her controlled strokes carry inner vibration, and the spread of ink leaves traces of time and sentiment. By blending traditional technique with modern composition, she visualizes the breathing and movement of feeling. Her work resonates like a silent rhythm, inviting viewers to look inward and sense their own emotional echoes.


Born in 1990, Buwon had a profound interest in toys, play, and street culture from an early age. While studying industrial design at university, he became deeply immersed in 3D tools and created a rabbit character as a motif of himself. Buwon began to build his career as an artist, creating paintings and art toys.
 
Buwon wishes to convey messages about the journey of life and personal growth through his artistic expressions. His lovely rabbit character is the portrait of the artist himself, inspired by his childhood nickname. Behind the image of an adorable rabbit lies a cynical concern, intertwined with the artist's life. The artist draws inspiration from various experiences, conveying messages that encompass both positive and negative emotions, which include happiness, joy, anxiety, and fear.
 
Buwon comprises two distinct forms of art: paintings and art toys. The artist creates digital sketches before transferring them onto the canvas using acrylic paints. He often incorporates unique materials like fur or modifies canvases and panels to enhance his artistic expression and creativity. When it comes to his art toy production, he primarily focuses on creating the rabbit character. He first creates digital sketches and then builds their form through 3D modeling.
Once the design has been completed, he prints out the outcome using a 3D printer and carefully paints and finishes the toy.
 
Buwon has previously collaborated with renowned brands such as Hyundai Motor, Simmons, MCM, SJYP, Giordano, Line Friends, Nike, Asics, and artist Code Kunst. The artist is constantly expanding his artistic boundaries by holding exhibitions in different regions such as Las Vegas and Jakarta.

Kim Joo-hyun's current works represent a series of creative endeavors striving to exclude conventional drawing devices, such as vanishing points, which were habitually employed in the past. While the artist intervenes to generate images on the canvas, the work is completed by focusing solely on creating color, ensuring meaning and intention do not surface. Water-based acrylic paint is applied horizontally, allowed to settle and dry, or tilted to induce flow. Through this process, the canvas reveals a natural visual topography. As artist Kim Joo-hyun stated, the “stability derived from uncertainty” does not resolve into form, stemming from an effort to constantly evade things defined and fixed by meaning. Since neither subject matter nor theme drives the image, the completed work evokes the artist's experienced synesthesia and fleeting moments. As seen in 〈Destiny of Warmth〉 (2025), diluted pigments accumulate, erode, and leave powdery residues. The duration of the production process remains unknowable until one observes the layers of color built up on the canvas's edges. However, it is intriguing that the physical time required for the layers of water and pigment to settle and stabilize on the canvas is comparable to that needed for the sedimentary layers or soil in an actual riverbed.


Hyewon Na is a painter born in Gwangju, South Korea. Her work explores conflicting yet coexisting emotional states, such as anxiety, violence, imperfection, sacrifice, love, and beauty. Through her art, she reflects on human vulnerability and the tension between finitude and eternity. Her work is a study of how to aesthetically represent these human contradictions. Much of her inspiration comes from history, society, religion, and more.
She earned her Diplom from the Hochschule für Bildende Künste Dresden (under Professor Martin Honert) in Germany, and has participated in numerous solo and group exhibitions in South Korea, Berlin, Dresden, Paris, and other cities. She currently resides and works in Berlin, Germany.

Ahn Soo-in’s work reflects sensations long experienced as a fragile human presence standing before nature—an existence governed by an exquisitely intricate cycle. Confronted with nature as a source of wonder and longing, the raw sense of inadequacy and quiet shame, along with the persistent desire to draw closer despite them, are carefully gathered and held within the pictorial space.

Leaving behind only the visible traces of nature, the artist reconstructs colour and texture into forms reminiscent of paper folding or modelling clay, revealing a tentative yearning to collect and preserve nature itself. This act of composition is not an attempt to faithfully replicate a complete form, but rather a metaphorical reflection on the posture of beings who live perpetually in states of incompletion—an exploration of longing directed toward wholeness.

Bac Jungwon has drawn compositional paintings that express the invisible emotions and minds of humans through various scenes encountered in daily life. After receiving a bachelor's and master's degree in Fine Arts from Kookmin University, she painted unusual, dreamlike, and dramatic situations, but in her mid-30s, she began to paint natural objects and everyday landscapes. Her paintings reveal the fragile psychology and feelings of contemporary people, which are concealed beneath the solid shell of civilization. The artist portrays difficult-to-express psychological levels through a variety of painting mediums, including sketching, watercolor, and oil painting. It defines creation as the discovery of remarkable moments in the repetition of her previous everyday existence and the transformation of the meaning into a material known as painting and reconstructs a daily life from her own unique perspective.

Hwang Hyeyoung develops her practice around the central figure of the “girl.” In her work, the girl is a symbolic being who transcends specific gender and age.
Through this figure, Hwang reflects her own fragility, immaturity, and honesty, unfolding stories that resonate with her personal journey of growth. She expresses deep empathy for those experiencing the turbulent waves of adolescence, portraying the moments of growth encountered over time by both the girl in her paintings and the artist herself in reality. The forest in which the girl resides symbolizes the trials of adolescence; the expression of diverse emotions, the courage to confront threats and anxieties, and the adventurous spirit to explore new challenges and unknown worlds are all depicted as integral parts of the process of growing up.

ROKKANKIM is a South Korea–based artist who presents works across a range of genres, primarily producing media works through collage and video compositing techniques.

Drawing inspiration from the social and cultural phenomena of the 1960s and 1970s, the artist combines these references with personal experiences to create surreal visual narratives. ROKKANKIM is particularly interested in duality—the coexistence of opposing qualities such as good and evil, positivity and negativity. His work invites viewers to experience each piece in their own way, much like how a single event or phenomenon can be interpreted differently depending on individual perspective.

His representative series include Space Oddity, which explores the dual nature of astronauts’ lives alongside the beauty and fear of outer space, and Sea the Wall, which examines the layered and often conflicting relationships between the sea, architecture, and humanity.

The artist records vanished neighborhoods and landscapes, translating memory and loss into painting. The city is reimagined not as a real place, but as a layered, emotional space shaped by time and perception. What remains is a self-portrait, constructed through the memory of a city that no longer exists.

Yerang Hwang depicts the contradiction and compassion of the familiar world. After receiving a master's degree in Korean painting from Sejong University, she broke down the boundary between western and oriental paintings, and reinterpreted oriental artworks from her own perspective. Concerned with the categories and medium of Korean painting, the artist experiments with several display approaches. Through the appearance of contradictory materials, visitors are prompted to consider the two opposing feelings, and the artist's vision of the world is depicted through the capture of everyday life. 

Philippe Parreno is a French Artist who rose to prominence in the 1990s, earning critical acclaim for his work that spans a diversity of media, including film, sculpture, drawing, and text. Parreno’s work redefined the exhibition experience by taking it as a medium, placing its construction at the heart of his process.
Parreno has exhibited extensively and has work in major institutions worldwide. His presentation at Cahiers d’Art inaugurates a year of major exhibitions and projects, including solo presentations at the Leeum Museum in Seoul, the Haus der Kunst in Munich, and an important project at the Fondation Beyeler in Basel.

Lee Ufan is a South Korean artist and art critic born in 1936 in Haman-gun on the southern Korean peninsula, then part of the Japanese empire. He moved to Japan when he was 20 years old, and developed a practice anchored in an Eastern understanding of the nature of materials together with an appreciation of modern European phenomenology. In 2009, the Japanese government honored Lee by conferring the Order of the Rising Sun for “contributing to the development of contemporary art in Japan.” In 2010 the Lee Ufan Museum, designed by Tadao Ando, opened at Benesse Art Site, Naoshima, Japan. Lee has had major exhibitions worldwide, including a retrospective at the Solomon R Guggenheim Museum in New York City in 2011. In 2014, he was selected for the contemporary art program of the Palais de Versailles, and in 2019 the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden in Washington DC commissioned a site-specific installation for the museum’s plaza. Lee divides his time between Kamakura, Japan and Paris.

It expresses the emotions of love and longing—too profound to be fully captured by language—through a fusion of visual and auditory art.

Art Jeeno or Piyaphach Jeeno (Born in 1987) stands as a revered artist whose influence resonates deeply within the manga community. Following the completion of his undergraduate studies at the Faculty of Fine Arts, Chiang Mai University, he immersed himself entirely in the art of manga. His mastery of intricate line work and distinctive coloring techniques has set him apart, earning him prestigious accolades at the 7th, 8th, and 14th Japan International Manga Awards. These achievements have not only propelled him to prominence but have also unveiled his remarkable talents to a captivated Japanese audience. Furthermore, his manga series, Juice #1, Juice #2, and Juice 3, have been published and distributed in France, affirming his global impact and artistic legacy. 

Art Jeeno’s journey in the art scene began in 2013 with “Now” (2013), a solo exhibition held in Chiang Mai, followed by “Now2” (2017) at Gallery 36 in Bangkok. He has also had the opportunity to exhibit in group exhibitions such as “When Snowflakes Fall” (2022) and “To the moon and (never) back” (2023) at River City Bangkok, which showcased Art Jeeno’s ability to convey the delicate and ephemeral thoughts an emotions of humans through facial expressions and actions, which have become his distinctive artistic signature. His exhibition “A Cold Day in July” (2024) at River City Bangkok marked his first solo show in seven years, representing a pivotal moment in his artistic journey. This exhibition stands as a significant milestone for Art Jeeno, highlighting his growth and unique contribution to the art world and also received a warm welcome from the media and collectors, and all paintings were sold out.


SoYeong Kim reflects on urban life through photos taken in daily life, capturing fleeting moments that evoke a sense of both illusion and emptiness. Her work is characterized by creating illusionary scenes by adding painterly ambiguity to real landscapes. She paints by repeatedly layering vertical strokes of acrylic paint on traditional Korean paper (Jangji). The unique textures created from the combination of Jangji and acrylic form the depth and richness of her works. The warm texture of Jangji contrasts with the cold, artificial texture of acrylic, and through the brushstrokes, these elements merge to create a dualistic atmosphere in her compositions.

Wonmi Seo expresses anxiety and trauma based on autobiographical experiences, societal experiences, and psychological landscapes through the language of painting. She graduated from Sungkyunkwan University and currently resides in Seoul, where she engages with audiences through various exhibitions of her work. The artist combines and deconstructs common materials and symbols, concealing and reinterpreting the ordinary. With this process, her works represent the unrestrained desires of humans today, a collection of characters with shattered and chaotic lifestyles, and the trauma linked with death in Korean history. She believes that viewers of her works will experience the separation of subject and object of the self and will be able to focus on the works and project themselves into them.

Based on an interest in 'how a wishing heart manifests in daily life,' Seokwoo Chung visualizes the energy emitted when a being strives toward something. He is fascinated by the flow of consciousness formed from cause and effect, and by the culture of wishes permeating the mundane. Drawing inspiration from the fundamental cultures of various religions, his current work extends the realm of the canvas by basing it on painting and incorporating installations in space. He implements a device that amplifies the characteristics of each, by going through various processes with painting works that correspond to the nature of specific spaces or places.
