這是一次回歸與出發(fā)的雙向奔赴，出生于廣州的李子薇女士，由珠江畔走向塞納河的藝術(shù)使者，如今載譽(yù)歸來，將以其獨(dú)到的國(guó)際視野與策展經(jīng)驗(yàn)，為廣州畫廊注入全新活力。未來，她將統(tǒng)籌畫廊運(yùn)營(yíng)與戰(zhàn)略發(fā)展，鏈接本土與全球當(dāng)代藝術(shù)資源。

This collaboration represents both a homecoming and a new departure. Born in Guangzhou, Ms. Li has served as an artistic ambassador from the Pearl River to the Seine, and now returns with remarkable achievements. She will bring fresh energy to Canton Gallery with her unique international perspective and curatorial experience. Moving forward, she will oversee the gallery’s operations and strategic development, building bridges between local and global contemporary art resources.

關(guān)于A2Z畫廊

About A2Z Art Gallery

成立于2009年的A2Z畫廊位于巴黎著名的老城區(qū)圣日耳曼區(qū)，以作為一批優(yōu)秀的國(guó)際藝術(shù)家的代言者得到了廣泛的支持和認(rèn)可。畫廊創(chuàng)始人方孝信和李子薇旨在把這里打造成一個(gè)可讓藝術(shù)家自由發(fā)揮，表達(dá)其藝術(shù)理念的空間。“我希望支持的這群藝術(shù)家，他們?cè)谑澜绺鱾€(gè)角落經(jīng)歷著技術(shù)革新和社會(huì)變遷?！?，方孝信如是說。他的行業(yè)經(jīng)驗(yàn)最初源于家族經(jīng)營(yíng)的畫框工廠，也因此與眾多法國(guó)知名藝術(shù)家結(jié)緣，也得以在開設(shè)畫廊之前對(duì)藝術(shù)市場(chǎng)進(jìn)行了長(zhǎng)期觀察。李子薇在完成藝術(shù)方面的專業(yè)深造以及在巴黎著名畫廊的多年工作后，培養(yǎng)起了對(duì)當(dāng)代藝術(shù)領(lǐng)域的獨(dú)到觸覺。

A2Z畫廊的藝術(shù)家都發(fā)展出各自獨(dú)特的藝術(shù)表達(dá)形式，體現(xiàn)了全球化背景下的藝術(shù)多樣性和特殊性。從畫家、攝影師、雕塑家到影像藝術(shù)家或是行為藝術(shù)家，他們通過當(dāng)代藝術(shù)的各種語(yǔ)言表達(dá)對(duì)生活和世界的感知。

在這個(gè)上下五層，共計(jì)300平方米的空間內(nèi)，A2Z畫廊支持這些國(guó)際藝術(shù)家，尤其是亞洲藝術(shù)家的創(chuàng)作。通過與一眾國(guó)際畫廊及藝術(shù)機(jī)構(gòu)的合作，促進(jìn)中法藝術(shù)領(lǐng)域的交流，A2Z畫廊已成為開拓國(guó)際藝術(shù)前景與推介亞洲藝術(shù)家的最敏銳的參與者之一，并將在此道路上繼續(xù)下去。

Established in 2009 and located in the Saint-Germain-des-Prés area of Paris, A2Z Art Gallery specialises in contemporary art, with a strong global emphasis on Chinese-French cultural exchange. Founders Ziwei and Anthony Phuong bring together diverse experiences of the Parisienne contemporary art scene. Working in the family framing business, Phuong Workshop, and studying the art market for several years, Anthony brings familiarity with key figures in the French art world, which is coupled with Ziwei’s art studies and years of experience working in French galleries. Their aim is to support an international selection of artists, with minimal interference, to express social and technological changes happening the world over.
