Presentation
On the occasion of Paris Design Week and the European Heritage Days, the Hôtel de la Marine hosts Hanjimania, an exhibition dedicated to the dialogue between French and Korean designers around traditional hanji paper. Hanjimania is, above all, a long story of friendship between two curators, both aesthetes, who share a common passion for art and design. Catherine Lurault and An KangEun chose for this exhibition at the Hôtel de la Marine to create a dialogue between two cultures and to bring together the excellence of French and Korean savoir-faire around an exceptional material, traditional hanji paper, soon to be inscribed on UNESCO’s Intangible Cultural Heritage list. The Hôtel de la Marine, the Crown’s Furniture Repository at the end of the 18th century, which embodies decorative arts in all their forms, is a living space for transmission where ancient savoir-faire meets contemporary forms of expression. This emblematic monument on Place de la Concorde is therefore the ideal setting to stage, within the exceptional setting of the state rooms, a Franco-Korean cabinet of curiosities. Six renowned French creators such as Studio KO, Pierre Yovanovitch, Constance Guisset, Aline Asmar d’Amman, Harry Nuriev and Jérémy Pradier-Jeauneau will interpret this millennial craft, Hanji paper, thanks to the talent of Korean artists such as Sim Jiseon, Lee Sun, Kim Woncheon, Studio Foh, Ko Somi, Yang Ji-Yoon, Yoo Ehwa, Jin Hyoseung, Kim Yongho, Kim Heewon and master artisans (Living Treasures) Kim Samshik (Mungyeong hanji paper) and Lee Byung-Seop (Andong hanji paper). A unique stroll will also be offered through the apartments of the intendants where the creations of renowned Korean artists will punctuate an exhibition-tour. This programme is co-organised with Gyeongbuk Province. It is part of the celebration of the 140th anniversary of diplomatic ties.
