Marck
(Switzerland, b. 1964）
Marck 馬克（Switzerland, b. 1964），瑞士當代藝術家以錄像雕塑（Video Sculpture）聞名，現生活和工作於蘇黎士。馬克Marck是一名非典型的藝術家，年輕時自我叛逆，縱使才華洋溢進入知名藝術學府，卻因無法忍受制式教育而半途輟學，從事汽車拆解、機械電工、搖滾歌手、設計傢俱及科技影音裝置等。馬克Marck異類豐富的人生體驗，顛覆一般人對學院藝術家的想像，自行創造的錄像雕塑獨特的語言表現型式，木箱框架、女性、膚色等議題深入人心，終究讓他走回專職藝術家的道路。馬克Marck受邀於歐美各大畫廊及藝博會展出，並由Bluerider ART介紹至亞洲。2019年獲義大利Academia Culturale Internazionale Cartagine頒發International Culture Award獎項，作品於國際重要展覽展出，包含拉珀斯維爾藝術中心（Kunstzeug-haus IG Halle Rapperswil）、瓦爾登堡雙年展（Ville des Arts Biennale）、聖彼德堡當代美術館（Museum Erarta）等，並由波士頓藝術博物館（Museum of Fine Arts, Boston）、伊斯坦布爾藝術中心（The Art Center Istanbul）、韓國斗山藝術中心（Doosan Art Center, Korea）、卡爾斯魯厄多藝術與媒體中心（Zentrum für Kunst und Medien, Karlsruhe）等重要國際機構收藏。
Pascal Dombis
(Frence, 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.
Peter Krauskopf
(Germany, b. 1966)
Peter Krauskopf studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in his birth town Leipzig and later continued as a post-graduate under Arno Rink. Known for his break with the figurative tradition of Leipzig painting, Peter Krauskopf especially interested in the process of overpainting, which he understands as an overwriting of time. All of his pieces – the intensive colored smaller plates, as well as the big monochrome color gradients, seem to be abstract at first sight, but they are all ‘concretions of a period of time’. On homogeneous, smooth grounds which either consist of an old, former abandoned painting or a monochrome under painting, Krauskopf performs one single intervention to form a new picture. In 2015 he received the Falkenrot Prize. His paintings were widely exhibited including the Mies van der Rohe-Haus, Berlin, the Forum Kunst Rottweil, the Kunsthalle Lingen and Kunsthaus Kaufbeuren, works presented in the collection of the Albertinum in Dresden, the Ludwig Forum in Aachen, the City Museum of Wrocław, the Kunstverein Ludwigshafen, the Museum Schloss Morsbroich in Leverkusen, Kupferstichkabinett and the Galerie Neue Meister in Dresden, Germanisches Nationalmuseum in Nuremberg.
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.
Christiane Grimm
(Germany, b. 1957)
Christiane Grimm has created colour and light spaces ever since the mid-1980s. A major focus of her researches is on colour itself, which she investigates in terms of its luminosity, its wide range of nuances, the ways they can be combined, and also their effect on the viewer.
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.
Bryan Ida
(USA, b.1963)

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 transitioned from street graffiti into pure white spaces, starting with points and developing them into circular transformations and 3D sculptures, condensing the exuberance of the outdoors onto geometrically distorted canvases. 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.
Michael Craik 邁可．克雷克
(Scotland, b.1972)

Hogan Brown
(UK, b. 1966）
Hogan Brown (UK, b.1966) was born in London. He studied Fine Art at Middlesex University. Since then he has exhibited extensively in solo and group shows throughout Europe and North and South America. Hogan's work contains mysterious and anonymous figures in what can seem stark environments yet a covert narrative emerges from the canvas. The empty spaces in the paintings are as telling and important to the work as much as the focal figures. Brown uses traditional techniques, drawing and painting oil on canvas, to capture aspects of popular culture. Late series is drawn from cinematic influences, specifically films of the1960’s, which adds a retro character to his paintings, giving a narrative and intriguing quality to the subject he portrays.
Sandra Ackermann

Sandra Ackermann lives and works in rural Germany and London UK. She studied fine art at Staatliche Hochschule for Bildende Künste – Städelschule Frankfurt am Main. In her work she combines the interest in the human appearance with the observation of the newly appearing digital image culture and the way it changes the perception we have about ourselves. Ackermann understands her work as an ongoing project of cultural observational studies from a female perspective, interlacing political and emotional movements of society into poetic paintings. Her work has been shown internationally in Europe and Asia in Galleries and Museums, including Royal Opera Arcade, Städel Museumm, Städtisches Museum Engen, etc. Her work is present in private and public collections, including art collection of Rhineland Palatinate, Germany.
