2019 索卡藝術持續關注亞洲最新藝術動脈
2019年索卡藝術第七年參展香港巴賽爾藝術博覽盛會（2019 ART BASEL HK），今年索卡再度以藝術史觀點出發而著重於當今時代下深具影響力藝術家，推出橫跨地域性的洪凌、毛旭輝、趙夢、張英楠、池田光弘共五位藝術家，以不同文化背景共同聚焦經典藝術盛會，重啟亞洲藝術與西方交流的呈現。
"築廬於自然的藝術隱者"
洪凌 Hong Ling
春風似霞 Spring Breeze
油彩 /畫布 Oil on Canvas
170 x 150 cm
2017
洪凌 早已為中國藝術史上留下—首創西方觀念，再現中國傳統文化哲學性定位。洪凌在九十年代初期將工作室設於黃山腳下的屯溪，經年以山水為鄰，以自然為師，潛心將天地山川的大美心領神會後，轉化於筆下的山水風景創作，並致力將中國傳統水墨自宋代所著重的氣韻，寫意精神延續到西畫的表現。
洪凌 Hong Ling
殘雪 Lingering Snow
油彩 / 畫布 Oil on Canvas
140 x 200 cm
2017
洪凌創作的山水意象風格獨具，將繪畫視角重新透視與解構自然樣貌，使用油彩潑點再搭配水墨皴法，大小，緩急或是塗抹，將自然中的山林風情保有著東方獨有留白與氣韻表現，奠定他在其當代藝術史中無可撼動的地位。
洪凌 Hong Ling
丹秋 The Wild Autumn
油彩 / 畫布 Oil on Canvas
60 x 70 cm
2018
創作已超過三十年，洪凌每一天始終在挑戰自我，從早期代表中國藝術家受邀參展威尼斯雙年展（1997威尼斯雙年展及2011威尼斯雙年展）殊榮，2015年更與索卡共同創下華人藝術的第一，舉辦兩年的個人世界巡迴展，分別將巡迴至英國與爾蘭等重要研究東方藝術學術機構。2017年年作品「四季交響」（四季）榮獲中國國家大劇院的永久收藏。洪凌新作也將會再三月份的香港巴賽爾登場亮相，敬請期待！
"中國藝術先鋒致力記錄時代藝術家"
毛旭輝 Mao Xuhui
光芒之下 Under the Glory
壓克力彩 / 畫布 Acrylic on Canvas
140 x 300 cm
2018-2019.02
毛旭輝除了在85新潮藝術運動為當代藝術跨出一大步外，一路走來都再次反思時代變遷所引起的各種社會問題，並同時在其中重新轉換的象徵的符號語意。觀看他的作品沒有當代藝術下所流行性符號，所有的藝術語彙與顏色都是飽經個人生命體驗後生成且忠於自己內心的生活實記，藉以象徵時代作為權勢與人生的參照。
毛旭輝 Mao Xuhui
天空留下了翅膀的痕跡.致泰戈爾
I Leave the Trace of Wings in the Air — To Tagore
油彩 / 畫布 Oil on Canvas
140 x 220 cm
2014 – 2017.08
毛旭輝 Mao Xuhui
老祖宗 Forefathers
水墨/紙本 Ink on Paper
43 x 73.5 cm
2019.01.20
從過去聞名「椅子」，「剪刀」系列讓人感受強烈撼動，也將符號轉化成對中國社會權威不滿，對死亡的思索和家庭的關係。當今的毛旭輝作品表現氣氛不再只是圍繞在悲壯雄混的意境，反而給了眼睛更多故事感與優雅浪漫，作品「圭山寫生春風中的核桃。」 可觀察出毛旭輝內心所憧憬的桃花源; 新作品「光芒之下」將80年代人體的幾種狀態系列再次呈現，畫面中，彎腰脆地的男女面對強光（當今社會）似乎無所適從但又再找尋一個前進方向。
"復興東方傳統價值同時開拓西方現代藝術的創新"
趙夢 Zhao Meng
祥雲圖 2 Propitious Clouds No.2

80 x 150 cm
2018
趙夢 為現今哈佛費正清東亞研究中心的研究員，積極研究中國傳統文化藝術在新時代傳承與發展。畢業於中國美術院陶瓷專業，首位被美國波士頓美術博物館永久典藏的華人藝術家，也被瑞士蘇黎世萊特伯格博物館、美國辛辛納提美術館和韓國首爾當代陶藝博物館等典藏。趙夢作為一位當代藝術家，在創作觀念上他復興東方傳統價值同時在延續傳統基礎上加以開拓西方現代藝術的創新。這讓他榮獲第53屆義大利芬澤國際學術性陶藝競賽金獎，再次為東西方、傳統和現代間建立起一條藝術系統。
趙夢 Zhao Meng

2018
趙夢經典代表之作「文人供石」重新詮釋中國千年古典之美。在哈佛大學陶藝中心研究東西方當代文化多年，其造型美學仍保留了純正的東方寫意和氣韻態度，將中國園林山石肌理並予以西方抽象性線條表現，突破我們過去對東方山石排列、疊置與層次的觀念。最新作品「祥雲圖」系列，藝術家建構作品思維提出更多觀看可能性，重新將陶瓷、水墨以及燈光裝置多媒材結合，試圖在二維空間製造出立體顯影效果，讓每個畫面的流動都代表一種冥想過程以達到藝術家內心精神的無窮探索。

"透過空間的移轉描繪個人生命經驗及社會觀察"
張英楠 Zhang Ying Nan
春去春回 Come Full Circle
油彩 / 畫布 Oil on Canvas
150 x 200 cm
2019
張英楠 生於80年代，來自北京，用色和構圖與其他藝術家相比少了直接與激情性，但多了許多耐人尋味的哲學性思考，總有難以言喻孤獨與寧靜詩意。也因作品的神秘氣質，2018年香港巴賽爾藝術博會上創下完售佳績！作品《鏡心》和《他》也被知名收藏家姚謙收藏，《鏡心》更成為電影《一個人的收藏》的宣傳海報。
張英楠 Zhang Ying Nan

張英楠的空間正表達著他與社會的心理狀態：人與人間疏離、對未來既憧憬又不安及對家鄉愁思等這些不僅是他獨有而是這世代年輕人的內心無奈。每當回憶過去發生的事情，它就會被藝術家隱藏好在所建構的空間裡，他的繪畫世界表現出很強的失落感，無論是空曠的廠房、高低錯落的建築體或是四周布滿落地窗的空間，都留露出一股孤獨與傷感。正因為藝術家就像導演，伴隨之伴來的每個情景就如電影運鏡般一幕緊接著一幕不斷湧現，試圖讓人的內心靜下，慢慢地引導觀者進入他的作品。

他熱愛研究傳統建築中的複雜結構，作品多為表現不同世代景觀的社會角落，曾在2014年花費八個月的行旅體驗東歐和東南亞等當地文化和人文風情，旅途中遇到來自世界各地落難無家可歸的民眾，使他意識到這個世界卻還有自己無法想像的貧窮與弱勢。

池田光弘的創作是經由外在世界的體驗，將旅行中移動過程透過日常熟悉不過的物件，如：遺棄的老舊建築、廢棄舊品、散落木材以及殘損空間，在過去與現在重建一個新場域，反映出對當今消費性社會的省思與批判。
梳理藝術史觀點—以「景觀社會」再次聚焦第七屆香港巴賽爾藝術盛會
索卡藝術不斷地在每一年的香港巴賽爾藝術盛會中提出系統性的展覽內容，無論是以個展或主題式群展，都希望從藝術史觀脈絡的橫縱觀察聚焦於國際舞臺，冀望為亞太藝術尋找自我闡述能力。此次索卡藝術提出「景觀社會」概念且規劃成三個子系列，分別是景觀社會中的「再現景觀形象」、「再現景觀視角」和「再現景觀場域」皆可從藝術家毛旭輝選擇日常最熟悉不過的物件符號，如剪刀、椅子、衣架等圖式擷取再重新詮釋語意；洪凌、趙夢這兩位藝術家，選擇於東方傳統價值上再加以開拓西方現代藝術，取得一個創新的平衡內容；面對當今資訊快速發展過程中，張英楠與池田光弘透過空間上移動轉換成對這個世界的了解和自我存在關係。
2019: Soka Art continues its focus on the latest art in Asia
In 2019, Soka Art will hold its seventh exhibition at 2019 ART BASEL HK. This year, Soka once again sets off from its historic perspective, presenting a group of contemporary artists of profound influence: Hong Ling, Mao Xuhui, Zhao Meng, Zhang Ying Nan and Mitsuhiro Ikeda. Spanning a variety of geographical and cultural backgrounds, the five distinct artists represent different possibilities in interpreting the chemistry between Asian and Western art and will both gather at the upcoming international art fair.
Hong Ling
—Making the 「first」s of Chinese art
Hong Ling
Spring Breeze
Oil on Canvas
170 x 150 cm
2017
Hong Ling has already marked his unique place in the history of Chinese art, that is, reviving the Chinese traditional culture and philosophy by borrowing Western concepts. In the early 1990s, Hong Ling set up the studio at the foot of Huang Mountain and began his years of life accompanied by mountains and rivers. With nature as his mentor, he discovered his unique way of appreciating the beauty of nature and thus transformed them into the landscape in his paintings. He managed to harmonize the rhyme and free spirit of Chinese traditional ink paintings since the Song Dynasty with the western styles. Hong Ling’s Shanshui is unique for he re-deconstructs the landscape imagery with perspective and employs both spray and texturing technique to demonstrate a variation of strengths, speeds and strokes on his canvas, reviving the ancient charm of Chinese Shanshui.

Hong ling’s artistic achievements, in result, have laid a foundation for his invincibility in the history of contemporary art. Over his more 30 years of career, Hong Ling challenged himself everyday, he was invited to participate in the 1997 and 2011 Venice Biennale on behalf of Chinese artists; in 2015, he was the first to create Chinese art together with Soka. Two years of personal world tour, bringing works to a number of important academic academic institutions in the UK and Ireland. In 2017, Hong Ling's huge work "Four Seasons" was honored to be permanently collected by the National Grand Theatre of China. Hong Ling's new work will also debut in Hong Kong Basel in March, so stay tuned!
Mao Xuhui
—The pioneer and recorder of contemporary Chinese art
Mao Xuhui
Under the Glory
Acrylic on Canvas

2018-2019.02
In addition to taking a big step in the contemporary art of the 85th New Wave Art Movement, Mao Xuhui also actively reflects upon on the various social problems caused by the changes of the times, and at the same time re-converted the symbolic meaning of the imageries. However, rather than employing the popular symbols in contemporary art, the artist develops an artistic vocabulary which encapsulates his personal experiences and life philosophy with the greatest loyalty to his own heart, symbolizing the era as a reference for power and life.

The artist’s most renown series from the past— the "chairs" and 「scissors" are a strong representation of Mao’s smart insights of daily life: the social complex is reintroduced through the iconic image symbols, transforming into artist’s dissatisfaction with Chinese society and understandings on death and kinship. Mao Xuhui's chair is no longer just a tragic temperament to express his uneasiness about the underlying power relations in the contemporary society, but instead adds stronger sense of narrativity, romance and elegance to the eyes，in the work 「Guishan Sketch— Walnut Tree in Spring Wind」 , the symbols of the chair have revealed Mao’s fascination with his private utopia；The new work 「Under the Glory」 re-presents several state series of the human body in the 1980s: in the picture, the men and women who bend over and face the glare (present society) seem to be at a loss but also in search for new directions.
Zhao Meng
—Reviving the Eastern philosophy & Exploring the Western Art
Zhao Meng
Propitious Clouds No.2
Ceramics, Xuan Paper, Ink, Acrylic
80 x 150 cm
2018

In addition, his works have also been featured in the Rietberg Museum of Zürich in Switzerland, Cincinnati Art Museum in USA and the Contemporary Ceramic Museum of Seoul in Korea. As a contemporary artist, Zhao Meng's artistic concept respects the traditional values of the East while also incorporates the nutritions from the West. By bridging the East and West, the tradition and the modernity, Zhao Meng’s work has gained recognition from the 53th International Ceramic Competition Faenza Italy.
Zhao Meng
Propitious Clouds No.3

2018
The notable work of Zhao Meng, "Scholar Stones" reinterprets the Chinese traditional idea of beauty. Studying the contemporary culture of East and West at Harvard University Ceramics Center for years, Zhao Meng's aesthetics of styling still retains the lyrical character of the ancient orient. He depicts the rocky texture of Chinese gardens with the western abstract lines, breaking the common perceptions on the arrangement, superposition and hierarchy of oriental rocks. In his latest work " Propitious Clouds" series, the artist explores the new possibilities of visual experiences, challenging the boundary between three-dimensional and two-dimensional spaces. Within the assemblage of various mediums including ceramics, ink and lighting devices, each piece represents a meditation process in which the artist infinitely explores his inner spiritual world.
Zhang Yingnan
—Portraying the dynamics between personal experiences and social observations through the transferring space
Zhang Ying Nan
Come Full Circle
Oil on Canvas
150 x 200 cm
2019
Zhang Yingnan was born in the 1980s in Beijing. His color and composition are less direct and passionate than other young artists. Zhang's work is filled with his philosophical reflections, and always possesses a indescribable sense of loneliness and serenity. Possessing un unique sense of mystery, Zhang Yingnan's paintings achieved great success at 2018 Art Basel Hong Kong. The work "Mirror Heart"and "Him" have been collected by the famous collector Yao Qian, and notably the"Mirror Heart"become the poster of the film "One Man's Collection」.

Zhang Yingnan constructed various "spaces" in his paintings with the ambition to capture the psychological state of society: the alienation between people, the uneasiness of the future and the sympathy for the family, which drive our generations into the depth of helplessness. The world in his painting shows a strong sense of loss, whether it is an empty factory building, the high and low-rise skyscrapers, or a floor-to-ceiling window--it is always full of loneliness and sadness. The artist is like a director, and every scene accompanying him is a scene set which constantly emerges and vanishes, trying to calm the viewers and slowly guide them into his work.

He received a bachelor's degree in philosophy from Hokkaido University and a master's degree from the Institute of Plastic Arts, Musashino Art University, Tokyo. He is currently a professor at Kyoto University of the Arts.
Originated from a traditional temple abbot family in Hokkaido, Ikeda manages to become one of the few artists who have been favored by both official and private organizations. His works have been collected by UBS Art Bank, Toyota Motor, Japan Life Insurance, Tokyo Station and other domestic and foreign organizations. Ikeda is enthusiastic in studying the complex structure of traditional architecture. His works are mostly the forgotten corners that represent the societal and natural landscapes of different times.

In 2014, he took a eight months-journey in Eastern Europe and Southeast Asia to experience the local culture and customs. During the journey, he encountered the homeless people from all over the world and thus realized that the world has poverty and weakness that he can't imagine, accompanied by a his exhibition at Thalie Art Foundation exhibition in Belgium. Ikeda's artistic creation derives form his experience of the external world, particularly the familiar objects seen on his ongoing journey, such as the abandoned old buildings, discarded products, scattered wood and damaged spaces. The artist manages to rebuild a new field between the past and the present, on which his criticism and reflection on the contemporary consumerism society unfold.
From the view of art history: Presenting the Social Landscape at the 7th ART BASEL Hong Kong
Each year at Art Basel Hong Kong, Soka Art continues to present exhibitions with a systematic thinking. Whether it is a solo exhibition or a theme group exhibition, Soka believes in presenting ourselves on the international stage from the horizontal view of art history, and looks forward to finding the original voice the for Asia-Pacific art. This time, Soka Art introduces the concept of "social landscape」 with its 3 sub-divisions: "reproducing landscape image" , "reproducing landscape perspective" and "reproducing landscape field」, which can all be identified in the works of artist Mao Xuhui: familiar object symbols, such as scissors, chairs, hangers, etc., to re-interpret the meaning of the language. As for Hong Ling and Zhao Meng, the 2 artists choose instead to explore the Western modern art basing on the traditional values of the East, creating an innovative balance in between. Facing the rapid information exchange of the today, Zhang Yingnan and Mitsuhiro Ikeda define their self-existence and knowledge of the world through the transformation of space.
