This autumn, Marina Rheingantz and Marguerite Humeau will participate in the 15th Gwangju Biennale, South Korea, marking the Biennale's 30th anniversary.

Rheingantz and Humeau join 72 artists from 30 countries in an exhibition titled ‘Pansori, a soundscape of the 21st century’.

The Biennale seeks to map the complexities of the contemporary world, addressing themes such as conflict, migration, and climate change through a blend of visual and musical forms. ‘Pansori’, rooted in the Korean musical genre, becomes an operatic exploration of the spaces we inhabit, connecting diverse struggles and life forms in a shared dialogue.
