The ‘On-Site’ Hub at the Gwangju Biennale is a hybrid typology merging parliamentary, sacral and theatrical layouts into a productive, discursive and social stage. Through the merging of different typological forms and formats a certain density of use is generated that yields a sense of programmatic friction. Encounters within this spatial framework are never pure and straightforward, but to a certain extent also convoluted and potentially conflicting. The Hub is the centre of the Communities Section within the Gwangju Biennale. (text courtesy of Nilsson Plugfelder)
