What Remains to Be Seen

29 September - 15 November

Villepin, Hong Kong

What Remains to Be Seen, a solo exhibition by Myonghi Kang, opens this September in Hong Kong. Marking the artist’s first solo exhibition at a gallery in over two years, following The Rebirth of Nature: Chapters 1 & 2 (2024), the exhibition brings together a significant group of recent paintings and works on paper.

Presented following major institutional exhibitions at the Seoul Museum of Art in 2025 and Château La Coste in 2024, What Remains to Be Seen reflects more than six decades of sustained observation and experimentation. Rather than looking back on a completed career, the exhibition presents an artist who continues to return to what she has not yet fully understood.

Marie de Villepin

Chimera

19 September - 25 October

Château La Coste, France

Château La Coste presents CHIMERA, a solo exhibition by Marie de Villepin bringing together paintings created between 2023 and 2026. Her paintings begin where forms elude all classification. The animal and the object, dream and matter, landscape and memory, meet on a single surface. These paintings do not describe the world. They take it apart to reconstruct it differently.

Marie de Villepin paints with a palette knife, brush and rag, with her hands and sometimes her whole body. She builds up the surface, covers it over, scrapes it back and begins again. Colours collide or are laid down in translucent layers, while drips extend the gesture. Forms may be concealed without disappearing; buried colours continue to show through later layers. Each painting retains the physical memory of its transformations. From the smallest formats to monumental canvases, a blot becomes an eye, a shadow an animal, a mass of colour a landscape or a creature. Nothing is fixed. Each surface remains open, traversed by presences, memories and metamorphoses.
