大河美術將舉辦《 THE FEAST 》聯展，集結 8 位海外亞裔藝術家，包含 Lili Lee、Mai Ta、Ness Lee、Peter Chan、Stanley Chen、Tessar Lo、Timothy Bair 與 Yi-Shuan Lee，開啟一場細膩的藝術盛會。《 THE FEAST 》核心概念為匯聚共鳴與身分的自我覺察。從鑰匙孔望入，暗示展覽強烈的帶入目的，蠟燭開啟了一場儀式，形塑了與觀者的對話場域。長餐桌作為一種凝聚集體記憶同時蘊含傳統階級意識的象徵，這些擁有特殊流動身分的海外藝術家們，在此端上各種佳餚，試圖透過創作來掙脫框架，而「亞裔」的特質卻又讓觀者能夠從中發現與自身共鳴的痕跡，進而回應其個別身分歸屬與存在的價值。藉由一張餐桌、一場盛宴，《 THE FEAST 》開啟對於觀看世界的另一個討論。本次參展藝術家雖來自各種不同的文化背景，卻能透過與人們重疊的身分而對作品產生更多思考的視角，我們期望觀者完整的沈浸在空間裡，享受這場充滿記憶律動的深度饗宴。RIVER ART GALLERY will hold the group show “THE FEAST”, bringing together eight overseas Asian artists, including Lili Lee, Mai Ta, Ness Lee, Peter Chan, Stanley Chen, Tessar Lo, Timothy Bair, and Yi-Shuan Lee, to initiate a refined art gathering.

The core concept of “THE FEAST” is to gather resonance and self-awareness of identity. Looking through the keyhole implies the exhibition’s strong intention of immersing, while candles ignite a ritual that shapes the diaLogue space with the viewers. The Long dining table, as a symbol of condensing collective memory and carrying traditional class consciousness, becomes a platform where these overseas artists with distinctive fluid identities serve various delicacies, attempting to break free from constraints through their creations. Yet, the “Asian” quality enables viewers to discover traces of resonance within themselves, responding to the individual values of their own identity and existence. Through a table and a feast, “THE FEAST” opens up another discussion on how we perceive the world. Despite coming from diverse cultural backgrounds, the participating artists, through their identities overlapping with the viewers, can offer different perspectives that encourages deeper reflection on the artworks. We hope that viewers can fully immerse themselves in the space and enjoy this profound feast filled with the rhythm of memories.

《再述的隱喻》集結8位藝術家，看似不同的表現方式，暗藏著許多不謀而合的隱喻，從童年記憶的講述，到自我價值與世代文化的反映，甚至對於生命及大環境的體悟，藉由作品的再詮釋，披著截然不同的敘事掛毯，說著你我皆可能面對的當代議題。“The Metaphors of Restorying” brings together eight artists whose seemingly different expressions conceal many coincidental metaphors, from the narrative of childhood memories, to the reflection of self-value and generational culture, and even the understanding of life and the environment. With the reinterpretation of the artwork, it is like to drape a tapestry of a very different narrative, speaking about contemporary issues that you and I may face.

大河美術將舉辦《SHA-VANA：Closures and New Beginnings》，一場極富深度卻不失趣味的雙人展，揭開了韓國藝術家 Lili Lee 和加拿大籍華裔藝術家李奕諠的核心價值與創作心路歷程，並以兩人個別的獨特創作風格，引領出後疫情時代，除了療癒身心外，反思與提升才是修行的初衷。RIVER ART GALLERY is going to present “SHA-VANA: Closures and New Beginnings”, a duo show that embodies depth as well as humor, introducing the core values and the mental processes of creation of Korean artist Lili Lee and Taiwanese-Canadian artist Yi-Shuan Lee. Their two unique creative styles are not only healing for the mind and body but also put emphasis on the core intention of self-introspection and improvement during post-pandemic times.
