DS Galerie Opens Group Show '3 Was Already Waiting Inside 2'
There's a new exhibition called “3 Was Already Waiting Inside 2” at DS Galerie in Paris, featuring artists like Clarisse Aïn, Guillaume Aubry, and Hélène Bellenger, among others. The opening event will kick off on July 2, 2026, at 5 pm. Curated by Thomas Havet, the show explores the relationship between duality and multiplicity, arguing that a third element exists within binary thinking. It critiques the rigidity of two in today’s polarized environment and promotes the adaptable nature of three, which allows for ambiguity and change. The artworks are diverse and don’t fit neatly into categories, while the gallery revisits its history with the idea of two, encouraging evolving interpretations.
