You should try using functions from utf8-string package (find it on
Hackage) to read UTF-8 encoded data.
That's about reading data in. I'm not so sure however about the gtk2hs
part. Experts should tell you if it is possible or not. (I think it
is.)

P.S. I think beginners at haskell.org is a better place to ask such questions.
