Headline: Goo Hye Sun opens Gallery “Manolin” for the new artists

GHS has recently opened her Gallery Manolin in Seoul, Bang Bae Dong, Suh Rae Village (Mah Eul) and is currently exhibiting her art works and she herself is greeting/communicating with the public at this time.


GHS’s agency reported on the 13th that, “In order to truly communicate with even more people, GHS has opened Gallery Manolin and is showing her own art work at this time.”

.In addition, GHS wants to provide the opportunity for the economically disadvantaged, new and unknown artists to showcase their work through Gallery Manolin either free of charge or with a minimum fee.

From pixie_eve:
So the Cafe got its name from Hemingway’s. That’s very much like GHS I’ll just give a brief background to the short novel since i read it some years ago hehe…
I think HS chose him coz Manolin signifies the commitment and devotion to a teaching or to a work (represented by the fisherman Santiago). In the story, Santiago is an old fisherman who could not get any luck in sailing the seas. He got one luck with a big tuna but it ended up being eaten by the sharks. His defeat never deterred him and he continued doing what he does best — to fish.


Manolin is Santiago’s little boy apprentice who learned from him, believed in him and never lost faith in his abilities. In the end, even if Santiago was defeated by the sharks and never got the big fish he wanted, he was comforted with the knowledge that Manolin is there, and he will continue what Santiago started/did. Santiago knows he will live through Manolin, his teachings and his work will carry on through the little boy who never lost faith in him and who always believed in his abilities.


GHS choosing Manolin holds a deep meaning in how she values art. Maybe she is seeing herself as a Manolin who will continue the legacy of ART itself. She is a disciple of the ART and upholding it through her Cafe is her mission as Manolin. Great work HS!! I salute your dedication to your craft.
