The artwork of Lee Bae shown at Perrotin's is referred to as his 'charcoal period'. It coincided with his arrival to Paris and discovery of the new material. His works explored charcoal itself for its sculptural qualities and as a means of achieving tonality. Lee Bae's work is heavily involved in the search for 'black', the black in which he strives to find nuances, vibrations, densities and depths.
His Landscape compositions demonstrate a powerful use of the charcoal to shape the white space of the canvas, which in some ways is similar to the shaping of white space in graphic design.

Ronay's sculptural forms show a clear reference to organic forms. He takes influences from his personal sketches of "intertwined bodies, of limbs and protuberances, cuticles, peduncles, carbuncles, calcifications, intersections of hard and soft matter, barnacles, burls, tumours, phantom limbs and vestigial appendages."
In this fast paced world today, its refreshing that Ronay slows things down and works on one sculpture at a time, carrying each piece from conception to completion before starting the next.
Paul Pfeiffer - DESIDERATA
Paul Pfeiffer is known for his innovative manipulation of digital media. Pfeiffer reimagines the visual language of popular spectacles such as the Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather fight, to examine how images shape our perception of ourselves and the world.
What was most interesting was his Desiderata series, in which Pfeiffer manipulates televised footage from American show The Price is Right, digitally erasing the show's host, prizes and other narrative cues. This focuses the art piece onto the game show's contestants facial expressions and body language. Making these videos surreal to watch as the contestants are reacting to essentially nothing.
