_DANIEL PANDINI ART LOFT, LEE-BAUWENS GALLERY
_YUNKYUNG JEONG _Daniel Pandini, 1938-2013, was a French painter. Connected to Mondrian s research, Daniel Pandini s work explores the path of abstraction through a radical simplification of shapes and a frequent use of primary colors. This practice, reminiscent of Concrete Painting, focuses on the reality of shapes, colors and textures. In this case, the original rectangle is restructured from cut-out shapes, noticeable through a subtle play on color. Daniel Pandini breathes life into his work in understated ways. He assembles sometimes barely re-cut wooden boards and composes shapes and relief using color. He draws pure lines in space, creating works that stretch beyond their frames, unfolding their colors outside the edges. "Daniel Pandini s works are also mini-constructions of wooden boards, sometimes assembled barely re-cut, that he calls Reliefs because they come out of the wall, unlike paintings. The color work on these boards is truly pictorial, yet they are no longer just paintings, since the reshuffled original rectangle marks the space with its sharp edges and the colors stretching out of the frame, look like they might escape with the flap of a wing. The restricted space that the artist favors doesn t exclude density, on the contrary. As the eye approaches, the work unveils its depth, the roughness of the wood and its pigments, traces of different operations, layers of color. In short, what we could call the materials of the building moment." Manuel Jover, Journalist, Art Critic and Writer

_ABOUT Art'Loft, Lee-Bauwens Gallery, is an art gallery where artworks are showcased in a living space. When you step into this old printing house in Brussels, you are walking into a loft space where art is not only exhibited but also shared. This allows visitors to discover artworks in an outstanding interior, while artists get a chance to show their pieces in a versatile venue that works around their art. Founded in 2012 by Minyoung Lee and Gil Bauwens, the gallery's goal is to reveal and promote artists who are mostly coming from the Korean art scene, but also to show European artists works in Korea, through exhibitions or art events. As a curator, Minyoung Lee works closely with art institutions and museums and organizes exhibitions such as TEAF 2014 (Taehwa River Eco Art Festival) in Ulsan, 3rd Identiy Hybrid 2010 in Jeju Museum of Contemporary Art, Boarding Bridge 2009 in Seoul Kring Kumho Museum, Dissipation and Return 2009 in Seoul Metro Museum, or Age of Fragrance 2008 in Dae-Jeon Asia Museum. Today, the gallery represents a group of about ten international artists with a large creative scope such as sculpting, painting, new media and installations. These include Korean artists Chun Kwang Young, Yun Sungfeel, Namgoong Whan, Kim Joon, Moon Pil Shim, Kim Ku Lim, Nam Tchun-Mo, Kim Hyun-Sik et Yunkyung Jeong and European artists Maurice Frydman, Ode Bertrand and Aurélie Nemours.
