Curatorial Statement
Bluerider ART London · Mayfair is pleased to participate in the 2026 London Art Fair, featuring 7 of our represented artists with a focus on special materials. Come visit us at booth P7 and see a compelling selection of our innovative artists.
Highlights include Josep Riera i Aragó's sculptures, using found materials to employ symbols such as propellers to construct a poetic narrative of time, space, and life. Christiane Grimm explores the interplay between acrylic glass, light, and mixed media, crafting minimalistic yet dynamic works that respond to their surroundings. Dirk Salz uses resin to explore transparency, colour dynamics and the relationship between light and space to blur the boundaries between physical and psychological spaces. Angela Glajcar uses paper to examine the way in which space is experienced by using a material that is fragile and light. Wolfgang Flad uses mixed media and upcycled previously used material to create unexpected connections with nature. Bay Tang Jiaxin presents a distinct approach to paper through intricate needle-piercing techniques.
We warmly invite you to discover these extraordinary works at booth P7 at the London Art Fair.

Artist
Josep Riera i Aragó
(Spain , b. 1954)
Josep Riera i Aragó (Spain, b. 1954), a graduate of the Sant Jordi Academy of Fine Arts, is one of Spain’s most internationally renowned contemporary artists. Based in Barcelona, his work explores the themes of “navigation between the sky and the deep sea,” employing symbols such as propellers, submarines, and airplanes to construct a poetic narrative of time, space, and life. His solo exhibitions have been hosted at prestigious European institutions, including the Heilbronn Municipal Museum in Germany, the Van Gogh Foundation in Arles, and the Joan Miró Foundation in Barcelona. His works are included in esteemed permanent collections such as the Van Gogh Foundation, the Joan Miró Foundation, and Boeing in Chicago.
Christiane Grimm
(Germany, b. 1957)
Christiane Grimm (Germany, b. 1957) was born in Stuttgart, Germany, and graduated from the University of Stuttgart's architecture department, currently lives and works in Heidelberg. Christian Grimm focuses on the sensual effect conveyed by special materials like acrylic glass, emerges from the interplay between colours, composition, space, material, and lighting. Her work allows physical light to influence the specificity of the image, revealing three-dimensional gradients painted by light. Exhibited at the Museum Ritter and the Wilhelm Hack Museum in Germany and awarded the public's choice award, permanently collected by institutions such as the City Government of Heidelberg, Deutsche Bank, Das Kleine Museum and Kunsthalle Würth, as well as private institutions like PwC's Assurance Services.
Dirk Salz
(Germany, b. 1962)
Dirk Salz (Germany, b. 1962) developed a deep appreciation for painting and art history at a young age. Currently based in Mülheim an der Ruhr, Germany, Salz’s creative process abandons traditional tools like brushes and canvases. Instead, he uses paint rollers and the gravitational force of resin to break free from minimalist conventions, exploring transparency, color dynamics, and the interplay between light and space. His works are part of the Akzo Nobel Art Foundation’s collection and numerous private collections worldwide.
Angela Glajcar
(Germany, b.1970)
Born in Mainz, Germany, Angela Glajcar studied sculpture at the Akademie der Bildenden Künste in Nuremberg from 1991 to 1998. Glajcar's work embodies sculpture and installation, it examines the way in which space is experienced using a material that is fragile and light. In the act of ripping and perforating a material that is traditionally used as a two-dimensional support, Glajcar gives paper a strong sculptural presence. Terforation is the title of Angela Glajcar's famous cubic pieces. The staggered arrangement of the vertically hung series of sheets of white paper, with torn edges, produces cave-like recessions. These extend into the depth of the sculpture. The sharp ridges and deep caverns gives viewer a fascinating room of harmony and silence. Glajcar has exhibited extensively and been the recipient of numerous awards and fellowships including Studio Award of the Kunststiftung Erich Hauser, the Asterstein scholarship in 1999 and Vordemberge Gildewart Award in 2004. Glajcar's works have been showcased in various prominent public art exhibitions, including Cologne Cathedral, the Frankfurt Department of Culture, the Jacksonville Museum of Contemporary Art, and the Mainz Gutenberg Museum. Permanent collections of Glajcar's works can be found at the Jacksonville Museum of Contemporary Art in the United States, the Wiesbaden Museum in Germany, the Mainz Arts and Sciences Center in Germany, and the Hanten Schmidt collection in Austria.
Wolfgang Flad
(Germany, b. 1974)
Wolfgang Flad is a German artist living and working in Berlin. Born in 1974, he studied textile design at Fachhochschule Reutlingen and fine arts at the Akademie der Bildenden Künste, Stuttgart. He has had numerous solo exhibitions in Germany and other European countries, and has placed his artwork in museum collections in Germany, Switzerland, and the Netherlands. Primarily a sculptor, Flad is interested in “upcycling” previously used material, and in creating unexpected associations and connections between art and the natural world.
Adrian Wald
(Germany, b.1986)
Adrian Wald (Germany, b.1986) was born in Bavaria, Germany, currently lives and works in Munich. He studied graphic painting at the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich and the Ecole Mediterraneo des Arts in Marseille, France. In Wald's creative field, there is no clear boundary between "sculpture" and "painting", installation works that combine sculpture and painting are the main forms of creation. He deconstructs objects and embodies the concept of "breaking the way or order of viewing paintings" through his works. Wald has been selected to participate in the artist-in-residence program in Riedenburg, Germany many times, and has received grants from the Bavarian Ministry of Arts and Culture.
Bay Tang Jiaxin
(China, b.1995)
Bay Tang Jiaxin (China, b. 1995) holds a Master of Arts degree from the Royal College of Art in the UK and currently lives and works in Changsha. Influenced by her background in printmaking, the qualities of paper have become central to her artistic language, allowing the material to convey her exploration of the blurred existence between space and time. In her Pierced Paper series, Tang uses a needle to lift the fibers of paper, creating an undulating surface through repetitive actions. These acts embody the passage of time, with the resulting texture and visual-tactile resonance reflecting her state of mind during the creative process and her inquiry into subspaces. Her work The Stone of Another Mountain has been collected by the Jiangxi Art Museum.
