Levi van Veluw, nato nel 1985 a Hoevelaken (Paesi Bassi), vive e lavora ad Amsterdam. Dopo gli studi all’ArtEZ University of the Arts ad Arnhem (2007) concepisce lavori multidisciplinari, che includono installazioni scenografiche, fotografie, video, sculture e disegni. Van Veluw basa la sua pratica sull’idea di una realtà alternativa, creando un laboratorio visivo in cui sono presenti sia l’ordine che il caos. L’artista indaga la relatività della materia e attinge a teorie scientifiche e fisiche per affrontare dilemmi esistenziali. Le sue installazioni misteriose e sensoriali incoraggiano l’osservatore a riflettere sullo sviluppo di una nuova conoscenza, derivante dal desiderio di un universo regolato, pur riconoscendo l’impossibilità razionale del controllo totale.
Tra le sue mostre personali più recenti ricordiamo: Videocittà, Roma (2021); Eduardo Secci, Firenze (2020); Rijksmuseum Twenthe, Enschede, Paesi Bassi (2020); Praz-Delavallade, Parigi (2020); Het HEM, Zaandam, Paesi Bassi (2020); Tenuta Dello Scompiglio, Lucca (2019); Domaine de Kerguéhennec, Bignan, Francia (2018); La Galerie Particulière, Parigi (2017); Galerie Ron Mandos, Amsterdam (2019); Rosenfeld Porcini Gallery, Londra (2016). Tra le numerose mostre collettive: Museum Kranenburgh, Bergen, Paesi Bassi (2017); labellisée Normandie Impressonniste 2016, Jumièges, Francia; Museum de Fundatie, Zwolle, Paesi Bassi (2016); Maddox Arts, Londra (2015).
Van Veluw ha inoltre preso parte a importanti fiere internazionali come Zona Maco (2018); The Armory Show, New York (2017); Art Brussels (2016); Chicago Art Fair (2016); Volta Basel (2012) e the Barcelona Loop Fair Barcelona (2014).

Abul Hisham (Born 1987 in Thrissur, Kerala), translates impulses culled from the Safavid, Mughal, Rajput and Deccani repertoires into an expressionist vocabulary, developing a sequence of portraits and tableaux that are uncanny, riddling, and phantasmagorical.
His scenes speak frequently of his native India, but often the inhabitants are from elsewhere. The exploration of shared histories, and of hierarchy and power, have been tarting points for his work. Concerns that show up in Abul’s work are religious conflicts and caste systems, which he considers the two most compelling issues today.
Abul’s interest in the existential finds expression in the medium of dry pastel, which he has been using over the last decade. The experience of working with the powdered pigment is like sculpting from dust, and recalls the Christian and Islamic belief that humans were created from dust to which they return after death. Some of the pastel pigments that Hisham uses are made from mined minerals, themselves part of the cycle of creation and transformation over millennia.
“My body of work explores the notions of desire, death and memory. These three points each have their own multi-layered profundity, and I’m interested in how they are intertwined with the social and cultural spaces in which I live – although I’m also concerned about the role of an artist as an observer in these spaces. The motivation for me is always evolving, from curiosities about socio-political cultural spaces to personal narratives, with cinema, pop culture, art history, mythology, and religion as reference points. And I enjoy the process of letting viewers decipher the many metaphors and symbols for themselves.
My interest in the existential finds expression in the medium of soft pastel, which I have been using over the last decade. The experience of working with powdered pigments is like sculpting from dust, keeping with the Christian and Islamic belief that humans were created from dust, and to which they return after death. Some of the pigments I use are made from mined minerals, themselves part of the terrestrial cycle of creation and transformation over millennia. Along with my investigations in two-dimensional space, I’m also currently exploring sculptural installations that address memories of inner space, and their potential connections to the idea of the Self.” – Abul Hisham

Alin Bozbiciu is a young, talented artist representing the figurative painting of the School of Cluj in Rumania. He excels in the medium of painting in all its facets. A soft wide brush stroke and abundant use of paint are characteristic for his style. The palette roams on the spectrum of earth colors and grisaille hues with very rare color outbursts.
The artist is passionate about subjects of his own private surrounding and the representation of familiar or even related individuals. Animals, especially dogs, star in many of his paintings. The subjects are set in private, intimate poses usually alone and seemingly unobserved. Often their gaze is turned to the floor, their bodies crouched or bent which conveys a feeling of the portrayed people being abandoned or immersed in private thoughts. The dogs reinforce the intimacy of the moment and create an emotional link between the person in the picture and the viewer. After further contemplation, one sometimes spots details in the pictures that do imply the presence of others.
Bozbiciu is dedicated to his subjects in constant repetition, serial work is a main method of his oeuvre. It allows him to study his subjects in different formats and variations, eliminating the clichés of content and representation. This method forces the viewer to look closer in order to distinguish the motives. This way Bozbiciu questions and challenges our perception of images. Despite his painting being figurative it is also extremely aloof only hinting at things instead of being explicit. Much is left ambiguous and open for interpretation or associations of the viewer. His big brush strokes are a tool to convey emotions and sensuality not enunciate content. Hence his work demands to be looked at again and again in order to be seen. They reveal their chore qualities when met with devotion.

Kevin Francis Gray, nato nel 1972 in Irlanda del Nord, vive e lavora tra Londra e l’Italia.
Kevin Francis Gray ha generato un corpo di lavoro che affronta la complessa relazione tra astrazione e figurazione. La sua ricerca artistica si basa sull’intersezione tra tecniche di scultura tradizionale e vita contemporanea. Anziché lavorare verso ideali di bellezza o di memoria, Gray si focalizza sugli effetti psicologici dei suoi soggetti, spesso sfruttando superfici materiche per esprimere stati mentali, posture facciali o corporee. Dopo dieci anni dedicati alla lavorazione del marmo, i nuovi lavori di Gray cercano di spingere la pratica scultorea dell’artista verso nuovi territori di espressione fisica e psicologica.
Si è laureato presso il National College of Art & Design di Dublino (1995) e presso la School of Art Institute di Chicago (1996), per poi proseguire con un Master in Belle Arti presso il Goldsmiths College di Londra. Lavora a stretto contatto con lo studio di marmo Giannoni, a Pietrasanta, noto per l’impiego di tecniche scultorie risalenti a Canova e Michelangelo. Le sue opere hanno fatto parte di mostre presso la Royal Academy, Londra, UK; il Sudeley Castle, Winchcombe, Gloucestershire, UK; il Museum of Contemporary Art della Val de- Marne, Parigi, Francia; il Nieuw Dakota, Amsterdam; il Palazzo Arti Napoli, Napoli, Italia; il Musee d’Art Moderne, Saint-Etienne, Francia; l’ARTIUM, Centro-Museo Vasco de Arte Contemporáneo, Vitoria-Gasteiz, Spagna; il Tel-Aviv Museum of Art, Tel Aviv, Israele; e l’Art Space, New York, USA.
