'Bae' in the name is a Korean word with manifold meanings; a pear, a boat or double. The name itself signifies location of the space in the pear orchard, locality of Busan as a harbor city and promotion (multiple times) of art. The name of the space represents our will to the promotion of contemporary art in the new space. ▶ Our Mission The goal of Openspace Bae is to be a path to contemporary art world, which reflects actively and promptly the rapid change of art. By developing a new system of exhibition and embracing new issues of contemporary art, we aim to provide the artists with space and chance to present their art. Especially, our Artist-in-Residence program will help them to draw a new vision of contemporary art by supporting their artistic imagination and experiments. Also, our various support programs will create an opportunity to find promising young artists and to invite experimental exhibitions in alternative forms. Basically, we would like to support non-profit projects with an emphasis on artistic experiments or experimental ideas. Located in the outskirt of the city and surrounded with nature-friendly environment, Openspace Bae is a space for those who wish to break away from white cubes and the institutional framework for the sake of true freedom of art. It will be a platform of communication for artists, curators and critics from across the country, where they can exchange substantial information and construct a steady network. ▶ About “Open to You” international artist-in-residence program Openspace Bae has run Artist-in-Residence program since 2006. Many artists stayed in this space during the period of Artist-in-Residence program since the establishment of Openspace Bae. Bae is a non-profit alternative space which is financially supported by Korean Culture Art Council and Busan Culture Foundation, as well as gaining support from some of our local artists’ donation who surely have a good understanding of what we do. Openspace Bae has run various programs, not just an international artist-in-residence program but also run several kinds of programs for the benefit of local art, such as Artist Incubating Program, Public Art Project, supporting exhibition program for young artists, organizing education programs, etc. The location of Bae is outskirt of Busan city, placed in the middle of mountain and is surrounded by Ilkwang Beach.
