Curatorial Statement
White is the end of color and the rebirth of light. White Jade symbolizes an inner radiance refined by time—unshowy, breathing in stillness, glowing in soft quietude. Named after this metaphor, the exhibition returns to the most resilient and essential qualities of beauty: the elegance of emptiness, the rhythm of breath, the pulse of light, and the texture of time.
Eighteen artists from nine countries bring diverse materials, media, and structural vocabularies into dialogue, converging into a shared sensation of spiritual purity. Unfolding along the floors and pathways of Hotel MVSA, the works extend beyond the confines of a traditional gallery and become part of the lived environment. Travelers, light, air, and time all join as participants. Through intentional “white space,” viewers encounter translucence, softness, calm, and luminosity—qualities akin to jade—as they move through the space.
Renowned for its Michelin two-star dining, Hotel MVSA introduces a full five-sensory orchestration through White Jade. Sight, taste, scent, touch, and sound intertwine, transforming art into a festive ritual and a tribute to time itself. The Michelin dining experience becomes an extension of jade’s radiance—precise, pure, elegant, intricate, and profound.
White Jade is not merely an exhibition on walls; it is a light that emerges from within. The works breathe into the space, and the space is warmed by their presence. As viewers walk through the hotel, they are gently refined—rediscovering how mature beauty gathers quietly and shines most brightly in silence.

Artist
Willi Siber
(Germany, b. 1949）
Willi Siber (Germany, b. 1949) graduated from the University of Stuttgart, majoring in Art History. He currently lives and works in Upper Swabia, Germany, and is renowned for his abstract installations. Siber states, "My works are always free and independent objects that do not need to be narratively explained." Drawing from the Baroque art and cultural landscape of southern Germany's Upper Swabia, as well as being surrounded by the boundless natural scenery, Siber transforms and distills the Baroque's opulent colors and rhythms, along with his profound connection to nature, into his abstract works. He continuously explores the plasticity of materials, focusing on shape, color, and texture to overturn viewers' visual perceptions. In 2023, he was awarded Germany's most prestigious cultural honor, the "Oberschwäbischer Kunstpreis." In 2019, he held a retrospective exhibition celebrating 40 years of his work at the Villa Rot Museum in Germany, with his works permanently collected by institutions such as the German Bundestag, the Staatsgalerie Stuttgart, the Städtisches Kunstmuseum Singen, the German Embassy in Argentina, Deutsche Bank, private museums Kunstwerk, and Museum Ritter, among others.

Prusa inherits the silverpoint drawing technique from the Renaissance period, delving into astrophysics to interpret the chaotic interactions of cosmic evolution. Through the meticulous and refined grayscale of silverpoint, Prusa intricately incorporates sculpture forms, portraying the beauty of cosmic anomalies, and has gained recognition for her unique artistic expression. She has received the SECAC Artistic Achievement Award and has been invited to exhibit at the prestigious American Academy of Arts and Letters. Her works are featured in several silverpoint history books, permanently housed in over a dozen museums across the United States, including the Perez Museum of Art in Miami, the Museum of Arts and Design in New York, and the Telfair Museums.

(Switzerland, b. 1964）
Marck (Switzerland, b. 1964), a contemporary Swiss artist renowned for Video Sculpture, currently lives and works in Zurich. Marck's unconventional journey led him to enter a prestigious art school at a young age, only to leave due to the inability to tolerate formal education. Subsequently, he engaged in diverse occupations, including auto dismantling, mechanical electrician, rock singer, and tech installation design. Marck's unique life experiences transcend the imagination of conventional academy-trained artists, manifesting in his self-created video sculpture expressions, addressing societal issues through themes of frames, women, viewing, and interaction. in 2019 he was honored with the International Culture Award by Academia Culturale Internazionale Cartagine in Italy. His works have been showcased internationally and collected by significant museums including La Maison Rouge in Paris, St. Petersburg Contemporary Art Museum, the Boston Museum of Fine Arts, Istanbul Modern, and the Karlsruhe Center for Art and Media.
Pascal Dombis
(Frence, b. 1965)
Pascal Dombis (France, b.1965), a Paris-based visual artist who focuses as much on language as on perception. He is noted for his excessive use of simple algorithmic rules. It was in the early 90s, while finishing his studies in Boston, that he encountered digital artistic tools, prompting a transition from painting to algorithms upon returning to France. Since then, he has created environments marked by excess, repetition and the unpredictability of technological processes, in which he aims to engage the viewers by questioning perception in relation to space, time and language. He develops multi-referential works which play with spatial environments and promote multiple interpretations. Recent exhibitions include Artists & Robots at the Grand Palais in Paris (2018), Cybernetic Consciousness at Itaú cultural in São Paulo (2017) and the Venice Biennale (2013). In 2020, he achieved the creation of a permanent public artwork, Double Connection, nearly one hundred metres long in the centre of Shanghai. In 2022, he got a monographic exhibition Post-Digital at the Museum of Contemporary Art Sorocaba in Brazil.
Sven Drühl
(Germany, b. 1968）
Sven Drühl currently lives and works in Berlin. He studied both in art and mathematics. With a PhD in art theory, he is also an author and editor of publications on contemporary art. Conceptually, Sven Drühl dissects visual shapes and types taken from every era from Romanticism to the present day, re-mounting them and combining them with his own motifs. Drühl reacts to the crisis of expression in post-modern painting with these transformed citations, but has purposefully not ceased to paint. His exploration of art history and his continual questioning of painting as a medium are at the heart of his oeuvre. He became known through his compilations of famous landscape paintings and had been exhibited throughout Europe, Asia and the United States including the St. Matthäuskirche, Berlin, Museum Villa-Rot, Neue Galerie Gladbeck, National Museum of Art of Romania, Bucharest, Kallman-Museum, Ismaning, Museum Haus am Waldsee, Berlin, ZKM | Museum für Neue Kunst, Karlsruhe. His work is in collection of Berlinische Galerie -Museum für moderne Kunst, Berlin, Allianz Forum, Deutsche Bank, E.ON Art Collection, Düsseldorf, Collection Philara, Düsseldorf.

Thierry Feuz's works have been collected by significant institutions and museums, including Musée d'Art et d'Histoire in Neuchâtel, Singapore Art Foundation, UBS Bank, Saks Fifth Avenue in the United States, as well as the Breeze Crop. and E.Sun Commercial Bank, among other corporate collections.
François Bonnel
(France, b.1968)

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.
Beñat Olaberria
(Spain, b.1970)
With a master's degree from the London City Art Institute, Beñat Olaberria currently creates and resides in London. His work, created in a non-impressionistic, non-narrative, and non-reductive manner, explores the unknown realms of form, composition, rhythm, and balance. Olaberria likens his creative process to a "walk," an adventurous journey where the final destination is uncertain. His pencil lines and heavy acrylic pigments present an incomplete and uncertain aspect through abstract compositions. Olaberria opposes predefined visual interpretations of his work, leaving gaps for viewers to interpret based on their experiences, creating multiple ways of understanding. The diverse materials he employs, including pencil, acrylic paint, clay, and charcoal, contribute to the layered and open-ended nature of his works. The exhibition will showcase Olaberria's latest works from 2023, inviting viewers to perceive and fill the gaps between their past experiences and the artwork.
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.
Sebastian Masegosa
(Argentina, b.1974)
Sebastian Masegosa was graduated from Panamerican University of Art, lives and works in Argentina. Using acrylic paints, oil, automotive paint, petrol and corrosives, all these non compatible materials speak of the infinite possibilities that exist in creation and the artist explores with them and looking for reactions between them. Masegosa had been exhibited in several museums and institutions including Fondo Nacional de las Artes, Museo Nacional de Arte Decorativo, Museo de Arte Tigre, Museo de Arte Moderno in Mendoza. His work is also included in collection of MNBA Neuquén and Portugal important architect Manuel Aires Mateus's private collection.
Desire Obtain Cherish
(U.S.A, b. 1975）

Jan Kaláb
（Czech Republic，b. 1978）
Jan Kaláb graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Prague, Czech Republic, and currently lives and works in Prague. As a pioneer of Czech graffiti art, Jan Kaláb has been constantly forging a path as a non- traditional artist.

He represented the Czech Republic at the Shanghai World Expo in the Czech Pavilion, and his works are held in collections at The National Czech & Slovak Museum & Library (NCSML), National Art Museum of Brazil, Deji Art Museum in China, Daejeon Museum of Art in South Korea, and cooperate with numerous international luxury brands including Dior and Tiffany.
Janna Watson
(Canada, b. 1983)
Janna Watson（Canada, b. 1983）uses abstraction as both an escape from and return to the real. As the world we know dematerializes into paint strokes, so too does her paint take stage as its very own character in a multi-act drama of composition. Bundles of colour, made up of discrete yet inseparable instances of pigment—what Watson refers to as “moments”—are teeming and poised as though caught mid-multiplication. Sweeps of paint re-direct sharply and fold over themselves; thin, rigid ink lines cut into the pictorial field as rudimentary elements in an increasingly complex system of painterly language. All the components play out on a surface of slow, chromatic gradation. Like many of Watson’s players, these backdrops tenderly gesture toward the familiar, stopping just short of representation. The result is a conceptual project (and distinct, stylistic signature) that speaks to a contemporary milieu in which abstract painting is not the retreat of meaning into an unrecognizable realm, but rather the emergence of medium as a “figure” in its own self-inscribed world of feeling and being. Watson does more than reveal paint’s potential to emote—she gives it a space to reveal itself, in its own time.
Chingltu
（China, b.1985）
Chingltu (China, b. 1985) graduated with a Master of Fine Arts from the Art Academy of Inner Mongolia University and currently lives and works in Shanghai. His creative process is profoundly influenced by his childhood memories of the pastoral lands, with recurring themes of contrast and tension: the city and the grasslands, the natural and the artificial, passion and rationality. After the pandemic, Chingltu turned his focus to the nomadic legend of the “Three Stones,” exploring the essence and truth of contemporary life. His work draws from religious philosophy but ultimately reflects back on the earth we inhabit, contemplating urban civilization through the lens of nomadic traditions. He seeks to uncover the commonalities and conflicts between urban life and nomadic culture, as well as the balance between reality and imagination. His works have been exhibited in the National Art Museum of China, Shaanxi History Museum, Today Art Museum, and Xi’an Art Museum.
