Christiane Grimm
(German, b. 1957）
畢業於斯圖加特大學（Universität Stuttgart）建築所，Christiane Grimm 的創作由建築觀點出發，結合層次性的幾何與色彩，將偌大空間中光影變化，透過與觀者的互動呈現。現居住創作於德國作品獲德國海德堡市政府、德意志銀行，以及私人美術館 Das Kleine Museum…等永久收藏，並擁有眾多私人藏家。
利用圖形迭合起的不明確性，Grimm 將客觀的構圖移交主觀詮釋，並傳遞幾何擴張而成的漸變美感。過去於金屬、玻璃或紙材上的繪畫，以二維的色彩和結構組織畫面，因油彩的飽和光澤及載體的物理反射特性，曖曖映出空間的深度，鮮活的色彩組合則帶出作品的脈動。近期更將創作層次推向三維的探索，迭合單色或無色的有機玻璃（plexiglass），利落劃分空間的同時也模糊色與色的絕對區隔，作品表面的波狀處理，看似發散了感知的維度，受到環境光影連動，不插電卻為靜態作品添加了動態元素，並建起觀者與作品的鏈接。

Jan Kaláb楊‧克拉
(Czech Republic, b.1978）
持續走在一條非傳統的藝術家之路的捷克塗鴉界先驅 Jan Kalab，畢業於布拉格 藝術學院(Academy of Fine Arts in Prague)。他的幾何塗鴉壁畫可見於紐約、 布拉格、倫敦、波哥大等城市。Kalab 以點出發，發展幾何圓形形變，以及 3D 塗鴉立體雕塑，從街頭到畫布，塗鴉的概念走入極簡純白的藝廊空間，擦出迷幻 的火花，他擁有在抽象藝術與街頭創作的雙重語彙，創造出充滿能量的抽象作品。 2010 年代表捷克在上海世界博覽會捷克館展出，於歐美有豐富展出經驗，作品 收藏於法國精品 DIOR 德國旗艦店、及眾多名人及私人收藏。
Marck
(Switzerland, b. 1964）
nternationally renowned X-ray artist Nick Veasey reveals the hidden facets beneath the surface using his unique X-ray penetration technique. His work humorously and mischievously explores the essence of people and objects' inner nature. Nick Veasey uses x-ray to strip back the layers and show what it is like under the surface. The technique reveals what, and often how, things are made, which grants his art to penetrate the surface and take us on a journey into a world otherwise hidden and unseen. Veasey has an extensive exhibition experience worldwide, with his artwork featured on the cover of TIME magazine and invited to give a TED talk. In 2018, he held a large-scale exhibition at the renowned Fotografiska museum in Sweden, visited by The Prince and Princess of Wales and the Crown Princess of Sweden. He also photographed important antique costumes for the Victoria and Albert Museum and collaborated with various brands such as Louis Vuitton, United Airlines, Balenciaga and Alexander McQueen. Works collected by the Victoria and Albert Museum, National Science and Media Museum in the UK, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, The Museum at FIT in the USA, the BMW Museum in Germany and the Museum of Applied Arts and Design (MUDAC) in Switzerland.
Marck 的作品看似以女性為主體，實際上則是以其作為社會縮影的代表，與框架的沖撞更探討著有形與無形的束縛，喚起觀者心中的共鳴。作品無法被單純定義為錄像與雕塑的結合，更像虛實的壹體呈現，由出演的排序、影片拍攝的精確定位，「錄像的目的不是敘述壹個故事，而是激發觀眾的情緒」，滲入我們習以為常的生活，以動態的畫面觸撥我們觀看雕塑的思維，同時也築起多媒體素材，至動力機械和雕塑的手工制作。錄像雕塑以全新的形式，揉合影像的平面表述與雕塑的空間意義，不僅辟出錄像創作的新道路，也再擴張觀者的感官體驗。
Thierry Feuz西瑞‧菲茲
(Swiss, b. 1968）

Pascal Dombis 帕斯卡爾·多比斯
（French, b. 1965）
Graduated from Tufts University computer art and Insa University in Lyon, France. Digital artist Pascal Dombis currently lives and works in Paris. His focus involves the exploration of language, noise, control, and irrationality. Dombis has been using computers and algorithms to generate and elaborate repetitions of simple processes, which computationally reproduce geometric or typographical signs. Started as a painter, Dombis notes that his encounter with William Burroughs’s art was a key moment for his new investigations into digital art. Dombis uses optical materials such as lenticular plates to revisit the way viewers look at things, and to question the very nature of images in the broad sense of the word. By using lenticular, allows him to play with the viewer’s gaze. The incessant circulation of images has made the way of looking at things more dynamic. Moreover, the lenticular material questions this new reading paradigm and brings about a physical and time-related experience. Over the years he created monumental public works for the City of Perth, Australia, the Ministry of Culture in France, and an 8 meter long outdoor sculpture installation along the River bank in Shanghai, China. His art exhibited around the world including Musée en Herbe in France, Museum Kunstpalast in Denmark, Velchev Art Museum in Bulgaria, and the University of Georgia in the USA.
Sven Drühl 斯芬・杜爾
(German, 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.

Almudena Pintado阿慕黛娜．品塔多
(Spain , b. 1969）
Almudena Pintado, born in Spain, currently creates and resides in Switzerland. She has participated in numerous international exhibitions and art fairs, spanning countries such as Spain, Switzerland, France, Belgium, Italy, Colombia, Mexico, Argentina, the United States, Iran, Singapore, and Brazil. Her exhibition experience includes prestigious venues like the Louvre Museum's Carrousel Museum in Paris and the Museum of the Americas in Mexico. She has also been invited to participate in art projects at the Tijuana Cultural Center of the Mexican Consulate in California. Pintado's rich list of awards includes honors from the National Academy of Fine Arts in Brazil, awards from the National Arts Organization in Paris, a bronze award from the Paris Academy of Fine Arts, and the first international art award from the Cordoba Alliance in Spain.
Pintado began her artistic career thirty years ago. She studied fashion design and architecture before the 1990s, which indirectly inspired her pursuit of art. In her past training, geometric and abstract elements played an important role. She started to express her structural artistic vocabulary mainly by collage of different materials, and gradually pursued creative expressions that mainly explored abstraction, materials and textures. Her works can be seen as a kind of relief narrative, using a combination of oil painting, acrylic paint, watercolor, ink, wood board, canvas, stitching, collage, etc. to express stories about childhood, roots, emotions, and memories.
Tanja Rochelmeyer 坦佳·羅切邁爾
(German, b. 1975）
Tanja Rochelmeyer graduated from the Berlin University of Applied Sciences and currently lives in Berlin, Germany. Many of her creations draw inspiration from her engineering background, emphasizing attention to detail and mathematical precision. However, calculations are not the medium of creation but an intermediate step in the creative process. Her training as an engineer has contributed to a perfectionist approach to technology, creating a sharp contrast with the moments of image creation. Ultimately, she positions herself and the subject of her creation within this contrast. "Constructivism and futurism meet the latest architecture and merge into a new language of modern painting." Tanja Rochelmeyer creates maze-like, dispersed spatial configurations, introducing multiple perspectives into the concept of imagery.
