Press Release

Whitestone Gallery Seoul is pleased to announce its inaugural OpenCall exhibition titled YOUTH, running from July 27th to August 25th, 2024. This exhibition marks a significant step in the gallery’s ongoing efforts to foster deeper connections with the local artistic community.

In March of this year, Whitestone Gallery launched an OpenCall, inviting young and talented artists to submit their work. The response was overwhelming, with over 1,000 applications received. After a meticulous selection process, the gallery is proud to present 22 exceptional artists, alongside one specially invited artist, in this diverse and dynamic group exhibition.

The exhibition YOUTH showcases a vibrant array of contemporary art forms, including light installations, sculptures, and paintings. Each piece embodies the unique perspectives and innovative expressions of the featured artists, capturing the essence of youth in its many facets.

The concept of YOUTH is multifaceted. It represents a period of boundless energy, creativity, and the pursuit of new ideas. Youth is a time of exploration and self-discovery, a phase characterised by passion and a fearless drive to challenge the status quo. This exhibition aims to encapsulate these qualities, offering visitors a glimpse into the minds of the next generation of artists who are poised to shape the future of contemporary art.

Whitestone Gallery Seoul hopes this exhibition will not only inspire and resonate with audiences but also provide a platform for these young artists to gain recognition and further their artistic journeys. The gallery is excited to support and nurture emerging talent, reinforcing its commitment to the growth and evolution of the local art scene.
