亨利・柯桥德，1992年出生于美国帕罗奥图，现生活、工作于伦敦。柯桥德2014年毕业于新南威尔士大学艺术学院。从他伊朗裔的身份背景以及在西方环境下的成长经历中汲取灵感，柯桥德的艺术实践打乱了固有的绘画形式、结构和叙事，以此解放视觉层面的多重性。他的创作从具象的形式出发，结合了油彩与碳笔的材料特性，勾勒出鲜明自如的灵动场景。画面中呈现的形式语言将观者的视觉期待反转，以形变、扭曲等方式来突显戏剧张力。柯桥德的创作将直接明了的视觉语言与饱满丰富的叙事张力并置，提示了当代格局下暗藏的矛盾性与不和谐的本质。近期个展包括：“安全地带”，Gallery Vacancy于Paris Internationale，巴黎，2023；“Hugging a tree is like kissing a dog”，Shoot the Lobster，纽约，2023；“Trouble on the Event Horizon”，MAMOTH，伦敦，2023；“Rice is god’s dandruff”，Chauffeur，悉尼，2022；“Set Your Friends Free”，MAMOTH，伦敦，2021；“Sharing the Sky”，Sumer Gallery，陶朗加，2021；“Inside Head, Outside Head”，Martin Browne Gallery，帕丁顿，2021。近期群展包括：“闲人出差 II”，Gallery Vacancy，上海，2022；“In Between”，Spurs Gallery，北京，2022；“Distance is Comfort”，Chauffeur，悉尼，2022；“Of Foxes and Ghosts”，MAMOTH，伦敦，2022。近期驻留及入围奖项包括：“R&F Residency”，纽约，2023；“PPP/Oostmeijer Residency”，阿姆斯特丹，2023；“The Ramsay Art Prize”，2023；“The Sulman Prize”，2023；及“Brett Whiteley Travelling Art Scholarship”，2021。
Henry Curchod, born in 1992 in Palo Alto, US, now lives and works in London. Curchod received his Bachelor’s degree from the University of New South Wales in 2014. Pulling from his Western upbringing and Iranian heritage, Curchod seeks to explore the elusiveness of shifting perspectives by complicating the formalism of painting and the narrative capacity of art through his practice. His compositions are primarily figurative, applied in arresting colors and spontaneous faux-naif renderings that combine the characteristics of both painting and drawing. His forms are at once contorted and performative, tangled in seemingly impossible or extravagant situations. Through the juxtaposition of simple visual language and rich narrative tension, Curchod’s art serves as emotive commentaries on the mismatched metaphors and ambiguities of contemporary life. His solo exhibitions include: Safe Spaces, Gallery Vacancy at Paris Internationale, 2023; Hugging a tree is like kissing a dog, Shoot the Lobster, New York, 2023; Trouble on the Event Horizon, MAMOTH, London, 2023; Rice is god’s dandruff, Chauffeur, Sydney, 2022; Set Your Friends Free, MAMOTH, London, 2021; Sharing the Sky, Sumer Gallery, Tauranga, 2021; Inside Head, Outside Head, Martin Browne Gallery, Paddington, 2021. Recent group exhibitions include: Vacation II, Gallery Vacancy, Shanghai, 2022; In Between, Spurs Gallery, Beijing, 2022; Distance is Comfort, Chauffeur, Sydney, 2022; Of Foxes and Ghosts, MAMOTH, London, 2022. He was the recipient of the R&F Residency, New York, 2023; the PPP/Oostmeijer Residency, Amsterdam, 2023; and finalist for the Ramsay Art Prize, 2023; the Sulman Prize, 2023; and the Brett Whiteley Travelling Art Scholarship, 2021.

亚历山大・弗戈，1992 年出生于意大利特耶内市，现生活、工作于圣贝内代托-德尔特龙托。弗戈在获得威尼斯建筑大学（IUAV）视觉艺术学院的学士学位后，于 2017 年在比利时安特卫普皇家美术学院获得绘画专业的硕士学位。弗戈的绘画实践探索了神话的这一历史功能，意在解析其对当代生活的启示性。他的绘画主要取材于古老的意大利民间神话以及历史上人们对信仰的外在表现形式。他融合神话的幻想与现代生活中的形象，通过独特的叙述方式进行改变和再创造，使画面富有灵见和逸事的特质。弗戈的个展包括：“Mythos”，Museo Palazzo Buonaccorsi，马切拉塔，2023；“圣显”，Gallery Vacancy，上海，2023；“Hang a crocodile outside for the unbelievers”，Cassina Projects，米兰，2023；“Black Morning”，双人展Alessandro Fogo & Paola Angelini，Lyles & King Gallery，纽约，2022；“Skins and leathers”，PM/AM Gallery，伦敦，2022；“Alla luce del sole，un attimo prima di spegnersi”，Galleria Annarumma，那不勒斯，2021。过往群展：“Pittura Italiana Oggi”米兰三年展，米兰，2023；“Dreamcatcher”，beacon，慕尼黑，2022；“Domani Qui Oggi”，Quadriennale di Roma，罗马，2021；“If on a winter’s night a traveller”，MAMOTH，伦敦， 2020，“Immersione Libera”，Bagni Misteriosi，Galleria Continua，米兰，2019。近期获奖及驻留包括：Premio Pannaggi/Nuova Generazione绘画奖，马切拉塔，2023；Nordisk Kunstnarsenter Dale艺术驻留，挪威，2021；意大利Combat Prize绘画一等奖，2019；及意大利拉古纳国际艺术奖绘画一等奖，2018。
Alessandro Fogo, born in 1992 in Thiene, Italy, now lives and works in San Benedetto del Tronto. In 2017, he obtained a Master in painting at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts Antwerp, Belgium after graduating with BA at IUAV Visual Arts in Venice. Fogo approaches through his painting practice, how the idea of mythical reasoning remains poignant to the revelation of our contemporary reality. Sourcing the myths around Italian mythological tales and the multifarious forms of idols throughout history, Fogo weaves personal narratives with mystical symbology to conjure visionary and allegorical qualities to his paintings. Like sensate lullabies, each scene speaks a mystical idiolect of their own, a language of lamentation for mystical lost to avant-garde practises throughout the present. Fogo’s solo exhibitions include: Mythos, Museo Palazzo Buonaccorsi, Macerata, 2023; Hierophany, Gallery Vacancy, Shanghai, 2023; Hang a crocodile outside for the unbelievers, Cassina Projects, Milan, 2023; Black Morning, Alessandro Fogo & Paola Angelini, Lyles & King Gallery, New York, 2022; Skins and leathers, PM/AM Gallery, London, 2022; Alla luce del sole, un attimo prima di spegnersi, Galleria Annarumma, Naples, 2021. Selected group exhibitions include: Pittura Italiana Oggi, Triennale Milano, Milan, 2023; Dreamcatcher, beacon, Munich, 2022; Domani Qui Oggi, Quadriennale di Roma, Rome, 2021; If on a winter’s night a traveller, MAMOTH, London, 2020; Immersione Libera, Bagni Misteriosi, Galleria Continua, Milano, 2019. Fogo was the recipient of the Premio Pannaggi/Nuova Generazione, Macerata, 2023; the Nordisk Kunstnarsenter Dale Residency, Dale, 2021; the Combat Prize, first painting prize, Livorno, 2019; and the Arte Laguna Prize, first painting prize, Venice, 2018.

薇薇安・格蕾文，1985年出生于德国波恩，现生活、工作于杜塞尔多夫。格蕾文于2015年毕业于杜塞尔多夫艺术学院。她的绘画技法借鉴贯通了古典艺术、波普艺术，以及数位媒介的形式与主题，轻盈地摆荡在真实的再现与抽离之间。娇娆的色彩，节制的构图，形象与形态的互换与共谋，格蕾文在静谧明澈的画面中，游弋探索于身体结构、生命经验、人性与神性之间，不断演绎却自若明晰的各种样貌。对世俗经验之外的向往，在不朽与转瞬的复始之间，格蕾文希冀在她的作品中捕捉一种更为恒定的和谐。近期个展包括：“Water”，Neue Galerie Gladbeck，格拉德贝克，2023；“You Skin Is My Shield”，Gallery Vacancy于首尔弗里兹，2022；“CLOSE”，Kadel Willborn，杜塞尔多夫，2021；“Nabel”，海德堡美术协会，2021；“薇薇安・格蕾文”，巴登美术馆，2021；“荧变”，Gallery Vacancy，上海，2021；“Apple”，埃朗根美术馆，2020。部分群展于杜塞尔多夫艺术宫博物馆；Green Family Art Foudation，达拉斯；Alte Nationalgalerie，柏林；汉堡美术馆；杜塞尔多夫美术馆；纽伦堡美术馆；Vestvossen Kunstlaboratorium，韦斯特沃森；G2 Kunsthalle，莱比锡；Ludwig Forum Aachen，亚琛；沃尔夫斯堡美术馆；Paula Modersohn-Becker Museum，不莱梅；Anthena Foundation，杜塞尔多夫；Deichtorhallen Hamburg，汉堡；斯图加特美术馆；及萨尔兹堡艺术协会。格蕾文的作品收藏于：汉堡美术馆；波恩美术馆；Hidebrand Collection，莱比锡；Braunsfelder Family Collection，科隆；龙美术馆，上海；李琳收藏，杭州；杜塞尔多夫艺术宫博物馆；埃朗根美术馆；斯图加特美术馆；Providence College Galleries，普洛敦维士；Sammlung Kunsthaus NRW，亚琛；Sammlung Philara，杜塞尔多夫；STRABAG Artcollection，维也纳。
Vivian Greven, born in Bonn, Germany in 1985, now lives and works in Düsseldorf. Greven received her master’s degree at the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf in 2015. She creates ethereal paintings that borrow visually and thematically from classical arts, pop arts, and the digital media world, sliding in fluidity between representation and abstraction. Working in alluring colors and restrained arrangements, her paintings display the interplay between surface and form with a glowing luminosity, dramatically flirting with body structure, dualism, and human existence depicted in serenity and clarity. Beauty is rooted within holiness, which is in connection with the universal balance between the immortal and the ephemeral. Recent solo exhibitions include: Water, Neue Galerie Gladbeck, 2023; Your Skin Is My Shield, Gallery Vacancy at Frieze Seoul, 2022; CLOSE, Kadel Willborn, Düsseldorf, 2021; Nabel, Kunstverein Heidelberg, 2021; VIVIAN GREVEN, Kunstmuseum Langmatt, Baden, 2021; The Negatives, Gallery Vacancy, Shanghai, 2021; Apple, Kunstpalais Erlangen, 2020.

何麦克，1991年出生于荷兰阿纳姆，现生活、工作于伦敦。他在2019年毕业于英国建筑联盟学院。作为来自中国的第二代移民，何麦克通过绘画来探究海外华裔群体的经历、文化差异及文化再发现等概念。他运用一种特殊的方式作画：由画布的背面向正面进行颜料的浸润，将稀释的背景色域与正面的清晰笔触并置，创造出一重东方传统与西方美学相融的潜在张力。他对于东方主义式的图像和形象的批判性解读饱含丰富的面相，从玩味性到政治性，从身体到空间。2020年至2022年，何麦克与他的搭档何智仁（1993-2022）以艺术家双人组的形式进行创作。何麦克与何智仁的个展包括：“Kūnlún”，V.O Curations，伦敦，2021。何麦克的个展包括：“As Feelings Burn Their Way”，High Art，巴黎，2023；“洞天”，Gallery Vacancy，上海，2023；“密恋”，Gallery Vacancy于伦敦弗里兹艺术博览会，伦敦，2022。他曾群展于GRIMM，纽约；白立方，香港；博伦坡画廊，东京；Nottingham Contemporary，诺丁汉；ICA，伦敦；刺点画廊，香港；Guts Gallery，伦敦；Gallery Vacancy，上海；Intersticio，马德里；Soft Opening，伦敦；和Delphian Gallery，伦敦。他的影像作品曾在伦敦皮卡迪利广场，伦敦ICA和Nottingham Contemporary放映。何麦克的作品被收藏于：Asymmetry Art Foundation，伦敦；Domus Collection，纽约；Labora Collection，达拉斯；李琳收藏，杭州；Tanoto Family Collection，新加坡；经纬艺术中心，香港；X美术馆，北京。
Michael Ho, born in Arnhem, Netherlands in 1991, now lives and works in London. Ho graduated from the Architectural Association in 2019. As a second-generation immigrant from China, Ho’s works investigate the notions of the Chinese diaspora, cultural mismatch, and subsequently cultural rediscovery through his painting practice. He employs a specific technique of painting from back to front, superimposing diluted images with resolved brush strokes, clashing Eastern traditions with Western aesthetics. Ho’s critical engagement with the orientalist images and tropes is multifold: from the playful to the political and from the erotic to the domestic. From 2020 to 2022, Ho worked with Chiyan Ho (1993-2022) as an artist duo. The duo’s solo exhibition includes: Kūnlún, V.O Curations, London, 2021. Ho’s solo exhibition includes: As Feelings Burn Their Way, High Art, Paris, 2023; Grotto Heavens, Gallery Vacancy, Shanghai, 2023; Tryst, Gallery Vacancy at Frieze London, London, 2022. His works have been featured in group exhibitions at GRIMM, New York; White Cube, Hong Kong; Blum & Poe, Tokyo; Nottingham Contemporary, Nottingham; ICA, London; Blindspot Gallery, Hong Kong; Guts Gallery, London; Gallery Vacancy, Shanghai; Intersticio, Madrid; Soft Opening, London; and Delphian Gallery, London. His film projects have been screened at Piccadilly Circus, London, ICA, London and Nottingham Contemporary. Ho’s works are in the collections of: Asymmetry Art Foundation, London; Domus Collection, New York; Labora Collection, Dallas; Li Lin’s Collection, Hangzhou; Longlati Foundation, Hong Kong; Tanoto Family Collection, Singapore; X Museum, Beijing.

黄可维，1988年出生于台北，现工作、生活于台北。他分别于2006年与2011年取得国立台北艺术大学美术学系的学士及硕士学位。在黄可维的丙烯绘画实践中，流动性常常成为作品的主题，既存在在绘画语言当中，亦反映了艺术家在台湾所接受的学院训练背景。黄可维的画布上所精湛描绘的人物、动物以及建筑空间中，模糊性与可读性二者间的张力通过艺术家刻意于具象与抽象之间的游弋呈现，以此对绘画史做出回应，同时也体现了艺术家对美学传统不断进行的逃离。在动静平衡的画面中，黄可维企图在台湾后殖民语境的艺术史断层中提供一个遥远、陌生却又普世的观看体验。他的个展包括：“出镜”，Gallery Vacancy，上海，2023；“图谜”，也趣艺廊，莱比锡，2021；“觔斗”，也趣艺廊，台北，2021；“骰子”，也趣艺廊，台北，2020；“空灰”，也趣艺廊，台北，2015；“无理数”，VT Artsalon，台北，2013；“后乐园”，Agora Art Salon，台北，2011。部分群展于：Gallery Vacancy，上海；2020台湾美术双年展，国立台湾美术馆，台中；诚品画廊，台北；大美无言艺术空间，台中；高雄美术馆，高雄。
Huang Ko Wei, born in Taipei in 1988, now lives and works in Taipei. He holds a BFA and an MFA degree from the Taipei National University of the Arts. In his acrylic paintings, the artist delves into the theme of fluidity both in painterly language and his identity as an academically trained painter. In Huang’s deftly portrayed human figures, animals, and architectural space, the tension between ambiguity and legibility not only reveals the intentionally blurred boundary between representation and abstraction, an active response to the history of painting, but also indicates the artist’s relentless attempt at breaking free from the existing aesthetic convention. Huang’s meticulously balanced treatment of dynamic and static tones on canvas seeks to provide a distant, achronological yet universal visual experience, reflecting the gaps in the art history of postcolonial Taiwan. His solo exhibitions include: False Mirror, Gallery Vacancy, Shanghai, 2023; Puzzle, AKI Gallery, Leipzig, 2021; Roll, AKI Gallery, Taipei, 2021; One Die, AKI Gallery, Taipei, 2021; Phantom Gray, AKI Gallery, Taipei, 2015; Irrational Number, VT Artsalon, Taipei, 2013; Post-Paradise, Agora Art Salon, Taipei, 2011. Selected group exhibitions at: Gallery Vacancy, Shanghai; 2020 Taiwan Biennial, National Taiwan Museum of Fine Arts, Taichung; Eslite Gallery, Taipei; dmwe Art Gallery, Taichung; Kaohsiung Museum of Fine Art, Kaohsiung.

彼得・詹奈斯，1990年出生于比利时莫尔特塞尔，现生活、工作于安特卫普。詹奈斯2013年毕业于安特卫普皇家艺术学院，2014年毕业于根特大学。詹奈斯的创作从艺术史中寻找启发，包含让・布鲁塞尔芒、奥托・迪克斯、詹姆斯・恩索和乔治・格罗兹等艺术家的作品。他通过丰富的用色、图案和肌理呈现诙谐的叙述氛围，与画面中充满戏剧张力的矛盾形成幽默的对比。詹奈斯的实践延续了比利时风俗画的传统，并为重新审视当代日常经验提供了一个异想天开的角度。他的近期个展包括：“不是冤家不聚头”，Gallery Vacancy于首尔弗里兹艺博会，首尔，2023；“A number of days lead to nothing”，Gallery Sofie Van de Velde，安特卫普，2023；“An apple can’t be tired”，Be-Part，克特雷特，2023；“When weeds bloom”，Nino Mier Gallery，洛杉矶，2022；“I can tell you stories”，Gallery Sofie Van de Velde，安特卫普，2021；和“Everybody’s heard about the bird”，Public Gallery，伦敦，2021。他的作品曾群展于：Gallery Vacancy，上海；Nino Mier Gallery，洛杉矶；Bozar，布鲁塞尔；De Warande，蒂伦豪特；及CIAP，哈瑟尔特。
Pieter Jennes, born in 1990 in Mortsel, Belgium, now lives and works in Antwerp. Jennes graduated from the Royal Academy of Fine Arts, Antwerp in 2013 and from the University of Ghent in 2014. Jennes’s works reflect a myriad of art historical sources, including works by artists Jean Brusselmans, Otto Dix, James Ensor, and Georg Grosz. Treating his paintings as a theatrical site of ambivalence, the artist employs vibrant color, patterns, and texture to create a humorous juxtaposition. Jennes’s practice extends the Belgian genre painting tradition, offering a whimsical lens to re-evaluate our daily experiences. His recent solo exhibitions include: I’m Glad There Is You, Gallery Vacancy at Frieze Seoul, Seoul, 2023; A number of days lead to nothing, Gallery Sofie Van de Velde, Antwerp, 2023; An apple can’t be tired, Be-Part, Kortrijk, 2023; When weeds bloom, Nino Mier Gallery, Los Angeles, 2022; I can tell you stories, Gallery Sofie Van de Velde, Antwerp, 2021; and Everybody’s heard about the bird, Public Gallery, London, 2021. His works have been exhibited at: Gallery Vacancy, Shanghai; Nino Mier Gallery, Los Angeles; Bozar, Brussels; De Warande, Turnhout; and CIAP, Hasselt.

普雷斯拉夫・科斯托夫，1998年出生于保加利亚，现生活、工作于伦敦。科斯托夫2017年毕业于皇家绘画学院，2020年在利兹艺术大学获得学士学位，并于2023年在皇家艺术学院获得硕士学位。从当下语境中个体身份的多重性与他自保加利亚到英国的移民经历中汲取灵感，科斯托夫的油画作品由超现实主义自动性绘画的技法逻辑，展开自我探索和自我发现的积累过程。延续了古典主义绘画传统中对于形式和色彩的讨论，他试图在阈限现实中构建天马行空般的想象场景，以此发掘和创造新的叙事和视角，其中线性的时间空间关系被分解，回荡共鸣于当代日常的人类经验。画面中所描绘的身分不明、幽灵般的人物无法被简单地置入任何单一的叙事或经历，在肉身的抽象与反复中栖居于一个剥离于世俗和文化象征的临时领域。近期群展包括：“Touch-A-Touch-A-Touch-A-Touch Me”，Berntson Bhattacharjee，伦敦，2023；“From The Cloud”，Baert Gallery，洛杉矶，2023；“Skin Deep”，Studio West Gallery，伦敦，2023；“A consciousness harnessed to flesh”，D Contemporary，伦敦，2023；“Now introducing 2022”，Studio West Gallery，伦敦，2022；“Proserpina”，Apiary Studios，伦敦，2022。科斯托夫于2021年和2023年获得The Elizabeth Greenshields Award，并为英国肖像画家协会成员。
Preslav Kostov, born in Bulgaria in 1998, now lives and works in London. Kostov graduated with an MA at the Royal College of Art in 2023, a BA at Leeds Arts University in 2020, and studied at the Royal Drawing School until 2017. Kostov delves into the complexities of identity and his immigrant experience from Bulgaria to the United Kingdom through oil paintings that arise from a cumulative process of self-exploration and the technique of automatism. Engaging in the dialogue with forms and palette inspired from Old Master painting traditions, his imposing compositions depict imagined sceneries where narratives and perspectives are discovered and invented within a liminal realm. His works resonate with the enduring reality of human experience while deliberately eschewing definitive temporal affiliations. The anonymous, ghostly figures he portrays are detached from singular narrative experiences, inhabiting in a realm free from worldly possessions and cultural signifiers. Recent group exhibitions include: Touch-A-Touch-A-Touch-A-Touch Me, Berntson Bhattacharjee, London, 2023; From The Cloud, Baert Gallery, Los Angeles, 2023; Skin Deep, Studio West Gallery, London, 2023; A consciousness harnessed to flesh, D Contemporary, London, 2023; Now introducing 2022, Studio West Gallery, London, 2022; Proserpina, Apiary Studios, London, 2022. Kostov was the recipient of The Elizabeth Greenshields Award in 2021 and 2023, and is an elected member of The Contemporary British Portrait Painters Society.
劳伦斯・莱杰，1994年出生于比利时哈瑟尔特，现生活、工作于比利时安特卫普。他2018年毕业于安特卫普皇家艺术学院。莱杰的作品以自然为主题，从比利时的绘画传统出发，将浪漫主义、表现主义和超现实主义中的丰富题材进行细致的形式分析。他具象式的创作语言将日常生活中的物体转录为风格化的几何形式，通过圆润的线条及对光和体积的细腻处理，传递一种悠远的静谧恬适。莱杰的艺术实践使张力与平衡并蓄：超现实主义的气韵透过视角、比例及色彩，与重复且对称抽象构图相融相交，形成了他对现代艺术史的当代解读。莱杰的个展包括：“岸里星畔”，Gallery Vacancy于台北当代，台北，2023；“If only”，Nicodim Gallery，纽约，2023；“Dusk till Dawn”，PLUS-ONE Gallery，安特卫普，2022；“幽思入幕”，Gallery Vacancy，上海，2021；“Soft Thoughts”，PLUS-ONE Gallery，安特卫普，2020。曾经群展于：L21 Gallery，马德里；Nicodim Gallery，纽约；Nino Mier Gallery，洛杉矶；Tuesday to Friday，瓦伦西亚；PLUS-ONE Gallery，安特卫普；The Hole，纽约；Ramp Gallery，伦敦；WOAW Gallery，香港；KOP VZW，安特卫普；Alpha Gallery，安特卫普；和Souterrain，安特卫普。
Laurens Legiers, born in Antwerp in 1994, now lives and works in Antwerp. He received his education at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts Antwerp in 2018. Undertaking the subject matter of nature, Legiers’s practice emerges from the Belgian art historical tradition through his assiduous formal analysis of the rich tropes and motifs from Expressionism, Romanticism, and Surrealism. His paintings employ a figurative approach to transform the daily objects into stylized geometric forms through the pivoted curvilinearity, the idealized roundedness, along with the intricate treatment of volume and light to provoke an enduring sense of serenity and tranquility. The artistic endeavor of Legiers becomes a site of simultaneous tension and balance: the Surrealist sensibilities epitomized via perception, scale, and color nevertheless seep through the repetitive and symmetrical composition of the canvas, resulting in an alternative interpretation of art history. Legiers’s solo exhibitions include: Drifting Onshore, Gallery Vacancy at Taipei Dangdai, 2023; If only, Nicodim Gallery, New York, 2023; Dusk till Dawn, PLUS-ONE Gallery, Antwerp, 2022; A Veil of Thoughts, Gallery Vacancy, Shanghai, 2021 and Soft Thoughts, PLUS-ONE Gallery, Antwerp, 2020. His works have been featured in group exhibitions at L21 Gallery, Madrid; Nicodim Gallery, New York; Nino Mier Gallery, Los Angeles; Tuesday to Friday, Valencia; PLUS-ONE Gallery, Antwerp; The Hole, New York; Ramp Gallery, London; WOAW Gallery, Hong Kong; KOP VZW, Antwerp; Alpha Gallery, Antwerp; and Souterrain, Antwerp.

茹特・莫尔克，1991年出生于立陶宛，现生活、工作于柏林。2013年于维尔纽斯艺术学院获得绘画学士学位，2020年毕业于慕尼黑视觉艺术学院。莫尔克以源自于学院绘画的传统技法，拟彷了物体由物质世界再现于数字景观中所生成的隔阂与误差，意在审视个体身份在网路算法经济系统中被激活的异化与整合。作品中的人物与物件通常以悬停的方式暂歇地被搁置在画布中央，摆荡在背景所描绘的无垠虚空之中。个体的差异性由此被消解，在同质化的共鸣中彼此呼应又相互孤立。平滑诱人的图像表面在艺术家的精心编造下，重建并检视图像在数字世界中广泛流通的审美形式，其中繁复劳作下的笔触痕迹被隐匿在几近无暇、去人格化的完美中。历史文化的传统影响与人为介入的技术变革在她的画布上并存，勾勒了当下日常经验中科技导向的工程化崇高，以及随之而来注定为时代所汰换的焦虑与隐忧。劳动与闲暇的界线逐渐模煳、靠拢与交错，提示了现代生活相互连结却又无法逃逸的孤独，在身体逐渐退位的非物质转向间不断地游移在虚拟与真实的光谱之中。个展包括：“Moments”，beacon，慕尼黑，2023；“XP”，Tara Downs，纽约，2023；“f(x)”，Gallery Vacancy，上海，2022；“Стрілецька”，WT基金会，基辅，2021；“SS20”，Downs & Ross，纽约，2020；“单手接龙”，Gallery Vacancy，上海，2020。莫尔克的作品曾展出于：Green Family Art Foundation，达拉斯；国家美术馆，维尔纽斯；Kunstverein München，慕尼黑；Margburger Kunstverein，马尔堡；Rupert，维尔纽斯；以及当代艺术中心（CAC），维尔纽斯。莫尔克的作品收藏于：Green Family Art Foundation，达拉斯；Institute of Contemporary Art，迈阿密；M Art Foundation，香港；木木美术馆，北京；MO Museum，维尔纽斯；Musée d’Art Moderne et Contemporain，日内瓦；四方美术馆，南京；X Museum，北京。莫尔克将于2024年在国家美术馆，维尔纽斯举办个展。
Rute Merk, born in 1991 in Lithuania, now lives and works in Berlin. She received her BA in Painting from Vilnius Academy of Arts in 2013 and acquired her painting diploma from Akademie der Bildenden Künste in Munich, 2020. Exploring the essence of human condition, Merk employs academic painting tradition to simulate the glitch generated from physical representations in the mediated world and the integration of identities under the conditions of cognitive capitalism. Figures and objects are usually depicted and suspended in the center of her composition in a homogenized manner, unified and isolated against the backdrop rendered in an alienating vastness and hollowness. The intriguing smoothness of her fabricated surface imitates and re-assesses the prevailing visual aesthetics in the digital sphere, concealing brushworks, the laborious endeavor, into dehumanized perfection. Meeting both the traditional and the artificial on her canvas, Merk contours both engineered sublime and concomitant anxieties of planned obsolescence in our technology conditioned life. The boundary between work and leisure is blurred, merged, and interlaced, illuminating the networked loneliness perpetuated and embodied in the immateriality shifting between the virtual and the realistic spectrum. Her solo exhibitions include: Moments, beacon, Munich, 2023; XP, Tara Downs, New York, 2023; f(x), Gallery Vacancy, Shanghai, 2022; Стрiлецька, WT Foundation, Kyiv, 2021; SS20, Downs & Ross, New York, 2020; and Solitaire, Gallery Vacancy, Shanghai, 2020. Her works have been featured in exhibitions at: Green Family Art Foundation, Dallas; National Gallery of Art, Vilnius; Kunstverein München, Munich; Margburger Kunstverein, Margburger; Rupert, Vilnius; Contemporary Art Centre, Vilnius. Merk’s works are in the collections of Green Family Art Foundation, Dallas; Institute of Contemporary Art, Miami; M Art Foundation, Hong Kong; M Woods Museum, Beijing; MO Museum, Vilnius; Musée d’Art Moderne et Contemporain, Geneva; Sifang Art Museum, Nanjing; and X Museum, Beijing. She will have her solo exhibition at the National Gallery of Art, Vilnius, in 2024.

夏琳・泰伯格海因，1993年出生于比利时安特卫普，现生活、工作于安特卫普。泰伯格海因2018年毕业于安特卫普皇家艺术学院。泰伯格海因的艺术实践吸收了比利时超现实主义精神，并通过错视画的技法加以呈现。她的绘画将趣味性和不可预知的视觉信息隐藏在秩序明晰的几何结构中，以此激活观者与作品之间一种富有游戏意味的视觉关系。泰伯格海因的个展包括：“家居风暴”，Gallery Vacancy，上海，2023；“Worrier Princess”，Gallery Sofie Van de Velde，安特卫普，2021；“Many drops make a puddle”，Castor Gallery，伦敦，2020；和“Soft News”，Beursschouwburg，比利时，2019。她的作品曾群展于：Gallery Vacancy，上海；De Warande，蒂伦豪特；L21 Gallery，马德里；Future Gallery，柏林；The Hole，纽约；安特卫普当代艺术博物馆，安特卫普。
Charline Tyberghein, born in 1993 in Antwerp, Belgium, now lives and works in Antwerp. Tyberghein graduated from the Royal Academy of Fine Arts, Antwerp in 2018.
