艺术家简历 ARTIST BIOGRAPHIES

Kang’s work builds on the Jimo (accumulatingink) technique of traditional Chinese landscape
painting,creating an atmosphere of tranquility, unfamiliarity andmystery. Alongside his
‘night scenes’ series, Kangcontinues to explore more formal abstraction. His abstractworks
start from a blank space – the void. His process isalmost meditative, a sort of antithetical
response to theintensity of his ‘night scenes’ work, yet he does notconsider these works to
come from any psychological(conscious or unconscious) experience. Kang’s abstractworks
are created through a continuous affirmative andnegative process, intuition and spirituality,
absence andpresence.Kang Haitao's work has been exhibited in Hong Kong, theUnited States,
Korea, the Czech Republic, Latvia, Italyand the United Kingdom. His work has been collected
byimportant institutions in China, including the CAFAMuseum (Beijing), Long Museum,

American artist Raffi Kalenderian was born 1981 in Los Angeles, where he lives and works.
L.A.'s magically tinted skies have alwaysbeen a relevant source of inspiration to the artist.
Every so often the peculiarity of this city reflects momentously in Kalenderian's works. Another
considerable stylistic influence has been the British artist David Hockney, whose landscapes
and portraits depicta singular snapshot caught in time, as if the moment was meant to stretch
forever. Kalenderian received his Bachelor of Fine Arts from the University of California, Los
Angeles in 2004. In the same year, he completed a residency at the Idyllwild Arts Academy in
Idyllwild, California, followed by another residency in 2007 at St. Barthélemy in the French West
Indies.Selected Solo Exhibitions：2021, Nassima Landau Foundation, Tel Aviv; 2020, Miles
