关于葛辉
葛辉1983年出生于江苏，现生活工作于上海。葛辉的绘画聚焦于对形体、形状的研究，擅长将人体、动物、植物的形象视作独立形式元素，在拆解后重新整理、描绘，最终呈现出超现实的景观。通过视角和焦点的不断转移和运动，葛辉将独立的局部构建成富有张力的结构体系，并在在反经验的画面阅读中建立新的秩序。

Ge Hui (b.1983, Jiangsu) currently lives and works in Shanghai. Ge Hui's paintings focus on the investigation of figures and shapes. He excels at processing the figures of human body, animals, and plants as absolute form elements, and after disassemby, rearrangement and depiction, ultimately presenting a surreal landscape. Through the continual transfer and movement of perspective and focus, Ge Hui constructs the independent parts into a structural system with tension, and establishes a new order in the picture-reading process that’s contrary to conventional experience,.

关于宋琨
宋琨1977年出生于内蒙古包头，分别于2002年及2006年获得中央美术学院油画系学士与硕士学位，现生活工作于北京。当代艺术家，画家，“中国70后杰出代表艺术家之一”。中央美术学院油画系第三工作室客座教师，N12艺术团体的发起及组建人之一。作品以绘画为主 , 同时结合了音乐现场、Music Video、装置等方式。
透过捕捉描绘不同的形象、真实或超现实的瞬间，宋琨的创作展现出个体瑰丽隐秘的私人世界对变化中的中国特有的反映和关照。在现实主义绘画的基础上，宋琨的作品融入了更多冥想与心理内省的气质，并尝试将绘画语言及视觉系统结合中国传统绘画留白与空性的美学观，为中国当代绘画在全球化的语境里提供了本土力量新的可能性。
宋琨的作品一直蕴涵着一个重要的概念: “意识流式的叙事”及“潜意识的暂停与通感”，这是她创作的重要特点，也是对中国东方美学的传承。她从不试图提供任何固定符号或观念，而是为命题 “如何感受生活赋予的经验认知与丰富情感” 提出了现阶段中国独立的样本。
近年来宋琨的创作步入了一个新的阶段，实验性地将当代亚文化及宗教元素与其创作系统相融合，形成了更加贴近她个人气质的独特样本。
宋琨近期个展包括：“写真.女体”，SSSSTART，上海，中国，2019；“泛灵净界”，Cc基金会&艺术中心，上海，中国，2018；“阿修罗净界”，清艺术空间，东京，日本，2017；“阿修罗净界”，蜂巢当代艺术中心，北京，2015；“视觉意识流”，民生当代美术馆，上海，2013；千吻之深，尤伦斯当代艺术中心，北京，2012；“寻隐者不遇”，Walter Maciel Gallery，洛杉矶，加利福尼亚，美国，2009；“昔珈·忘川”，博而励画廊，北京，2008；“宋琨”，Hammer 美术馆，洛杉矶，加利福尼亚，美国，2007；“这就是我的生活”，博而励画廊，北京，2006；近期群展包括：“封面”，飞地艺术中心，深圳，中国，2021；“绘画：宏”，广东美术馆，广州，中国，2020；“时代肖像”，太庙艺术馆，北京，2018；“她们：国际女性艺术特展”，龙美术馆，上海，2016；“旋构塔”，北京时代美术馆，北京，中国， 2015；“多重宇宙”，M21，上海二十一世纪民生美术馆，上海，2014；“China8-莱茵鲁尔中国当代艺术展”，杜塞尔多夫北威斯特法伦会展中心，德国，2014；“我的世代：中国青年艺术家”，坦帕美术馆，佛罗里达，美国，2014；“视觉意识流”，上海民生现代美术馆，上海，2014；等。
Song Kun (b. 1977, Baotou, Inner Mongolia), received her BFA and MFA from the oil painting department of the Central Academy of Fine Arts in 2002 and 2006. She currently lives and works in Beijing. Song's practice focuses on painting, while incorporating music live, video, installation and other media. She is hailed as one of the most promising female artists in China.
The honesty and emotional power in her work align her with “ the few artists who have stablished their own unique vocabularies of figurative painting in the contemporary art scene ”. In her works, she observes and captures the different figures and fleeting moments in reality and hyper-reality world, She gathers up the fragments of our time, at the same time makes the elements-restructuring. As a result, her works constitute a mythical, private spatiality that reflects the potential changes in China.
Song Kun’s works have always contained important concepts: "streaming narrative of consciousness" and “unconsciousness of the subconscious”. These are important features in her creation, in addition to this she uses aspects of Chinese oriental aesthetics. She never tries to provide any fixed symbols or concepts, but proposes a sample of China's independence at this stage for the proposition “How to Feel the Experience Cognition and Rich Emotions Given by Life”. Her firmness and self-confidence have enabled her paintings to borrow language from music, sound, and images to give painting a special narrative energy.
In recent years, Song Kun’s artistic creation has entered a new stage, experimentally integrating contemporary subcultures and religious elements with her creative system, forming a unique sample that is closer to her personal temperament.
Recent solo exhibitions include: “IMBODY-Feeling Real·Nude”, SSSSART, Shanghai, China, 2019; “SUKHAVATI。o 0”, Cc Foundation & Art Center, Shanghai, China, 2018; “ASURA SUKHAVATI”, Kiyoshi Art Space, Tokyo Japan, 2017; “ASURA SUKHAVATI”, Hive Center for Contemporary Art, Beijing, China, 2017; “Visual Stream of Consciousness”, Minsheng Contemporary Art Museum, Shanghai, China, 2013; “A Thousand Kisses Deep”, UCCA Center for Contemporary Art, Beijing, China, 2012; “Seeking the Recluse but not Meeting”, Walter Maciel Gallery, Los Angeles, USA, 2009; “Xi Jia – River Lethe”, Boers-Li Gallery, Beijing, China, 2008; “Song Kun”, Hammer Museum, Los Angeles, USA, 2007; “It’s My Life”, Boers-Li Gallery, Beijing, China 2006; Recent Group Exhibitions include: “Cover”, Enclave Contemporary, Shenzhen, China, 2021; “Painting: Macro”, Guangdong Museum of Art, Guangzhou, China, 2020; “Portrait of Time”, The Imperial Ancestral Temple Art Museum, Beijing, China, 2018; “SHE: International Women Artists Exhibition”, Long Museum, Shanghai, China, 2016; “Up-Youth”, Beijing Times Art Museum, Beijing, China, 2015; “Cosmos”, M21 Minsheng Contemporary Art Museum, Shanghai, China, 2014; “My Generation: Young Chinese Artists”, Tampa Museum of Art, Tampa, USA, 2014.
