Galerie PJ
In Metz, on rue des Jardins, Galerie PJ was born from the meeting of Pierre and Jisun, a French-Korean couple brought together by a shared passion for art. They conceived the space as a place to discover contemporary creation, where French, Korean, American and European artists cross paths. More than a shop, the gallery sees itself as a meeting point between artists, collectors and the public. To be discovered Wednesday to Saturday afternoons.
The story of an art-loving couple
Galerie PJ owes its name to Pierre and Jisun, who met in 2009 and joined their perspectives to create this space in Metz. From this dual French and Korean culture, the gallery draws a programme open to the world, alert to bridges between artistic scenes. The project is that of enthusiasts more than dealers: to make singular artists known and to give everyone the desire to live with contemporary art day to day.
An international contemporary scene
The gallery shows French artists, but also Korean, American and others from across Europe, with a concern for finding singular voices. Exhibitions change through the year, alternating painting, drawing, photography or installation depending on the programme. As each display is temporary, it is best to check the current schedule on the gallery's website before coming, to discover the exhibition on view and perhaps meet the invited artist.
