Erica Hestu Wahyuni
born in Yogyakarta, Java in 1971
Graduating from Indonesian Fine Art Institute in Yogyakarta and Surikov Institute of Art, Russia, Erica Hestu Wahyuni hailed as one of the most promising artists from Indonesia. Selected group exhibitions: 2005 "Contemporary Art, Group Exhibition", Jakarta, "Balinese Feast: Group Exhibition" and "Celebration of South East Asian Paintings: Group Exhibition", Singapore; 2000 Group Exhibition at Linda Gallery and Sembilan Gallery, Indonesia; 1999 "Women Imaging: Women Group Exhibition", Philipines; 1997 "At Tresors: The International Fine Art Fair", Singapore; 1996 "A New Wave Group Exhibition", Jakarta, Indonesia; 1995 "Exhibition of Sixth Dimension ", Jakarta; 1994 "Exhibition of Indonesia Woman Painters at the Taman Mini", Jakarta, Indonesia; 1993 International Triennial Competition of Painting, Osaka 1993, Japan; 1991 "Painting Exhibition of the Cultural Festival of Yogyakarta (FKY) ", Yogyakarta, Indonesia.
Her Art is became favorite for art collector and always sold well in the auction house.
Born in Yogyakarta, Java in 1971. Erica started painting in primary school, joining a children’s drawing club (Sanggar Katamsi), which was taught by Suharto PR and Herry Wibowo – both established painters. Erica is hailed as one of the most promising artists from Indonesia. She studied painting at the prestigious Indonesian Fine Art Institute in Yogyakarta, Indonesia and Surikov Institute of Art, Russia.
Erica’s paintings are usually unpretentious expressions of herself and they reflect her experiences and interests. Her art may be childlike, but they are certainly not simplistic. Each work contains interesting narrative qualities, which reveal the worldview of the artist. Erica’s naive, playful renditions have ascertained her reputation as one of the most sought-after contemporary artists in South East Asia.
Since she was a young girl, Erica had always loved to draw and paint; becoming depressed whenever she was not declared champion in a painting exhibition. "However, that ignited another energy inside of me. It made me stronger and mentally ready to acknowledge the superiority of my colleagues," claimed Erica.
Later on in her life, with the support of her art teacher, she managed to enter the Indonesian Fine Art Academy. At the academy, among her instructors were Nyoman Gunarsa, Agus Burhan, and Wardoyo, and it seemed that Erica finally found her world. Despite being ridiculed by some of her instructors, bluntly telling Erica that her works were far below average, she persevered. In 1993, her work was selected for the International Triennale Competition of Painting in Osaka, Japan. Erica held her first solo exhibition at the Purna Budaya in 1995, officiated by the sultana of the Yogyakarta court, which turned out to be a successful event.
Erica was invited to participate in an exhibition at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Moscow, Russia, in 2000. Her experience in Russia would perhaps become her most significant one and one that would take her beyond her current limitations.
In Erica's works, many subjects are presented on the canvas presenting a compact and crowded arrangement. Seldom does Erica feature a subject that has its own story; within the forms that she paints, there are other forms, within scenes there are other scenes. Although already filled with various scenes, her paintings still give the impression that only a fragmented of the complete story can be seen on the canvas.
Art critic, M. Dwi Marianto, observes that Erica tends to deform her subjects by exaggerating their physical characters or traits, to a point that they become like caricatures. She positions them radically or imaginatively on the canvas, defying perspective.
Typically, Erica depicts her own experiences in scenes that feature main characters within extremely busy environments. She takes interest in the scenes' surroundings, painting them with great detail. Erica animates the objects in the surroundings to make them become part and parcel of the subject matter of the work. She uses simple deformed shapes and brilliant primary colors to further enhance the sense of animation, and as a result her paintings appear to be fun and enjoyable.

Born in Nanhai Guangdong, China in 1944

In 1969, he started work as an graphic designer with Shaw Brothers (HK) Ltd. In the 1980s Poon travelled extensively between mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan. He saw the Silk Road and the Yellow River. Later he held several photography exhibitions about these trips. During this decade, Poon became the first artist ever to exhibit photographs of Taiwan in Beijing and also the first ever to exhibit photographs of Beijing in Taiwan. He has worked as a photo-journalist for various newspapers and magazines, including Express Post, Singtao Daily, Hong Kong Economic Journal in Hong Kong, Singtao Daily (Canada), Global Views Monthly (Taiwan) and Metro Daily (Hong Kong). He has published many photograph albums, art books and travel notes and has exhibited his works internationally. He currently lives in Hong Kong, Guangzhou and Vancouver and still works on art and design projects especially those supporting the creative sectors and children’s charities.
潘烱榮 (水禾田) 是攝影家、畫家和導演。水禾田出生於廣東南海,畢業於香港,長期從事攝影和藝術創作,作品曾於新加坡、東京、加拿大、美國、澳洲、菲律賓展出,並有部分作品被美國波士頓MIT美術館及澳門賈悔士美術館收藏。 1985年,水禾田獲香港十大傑出青年獎、1988年獲香港藝術聯盟第一屆攝影家獎、2005年獲中國上海馬爹利頒藝術家年獎、2006年獲聯合國教育科學文化組織世界文化遺產中心邀請參加拍攝計劃,為我國攝影藝術做出很大貢獻。
繪畫一直陪伴着水禾田先生, 在電腦普及前,他的設計及創作以手繪為主, 他亦為亦舒小說繪畫了超過一百本小說封面。現在他的作品有「和諧善緣」水墨系列、鍾馗水墨系列、魅力女性水彩系列、都市情緣混合媒體系列、「藍與白」塑膠彩系列、「高山流水」塑膠彩系列,這些作品現收藏於香港齊亮畫廊BLINK GALLERY裡。
為什麼從攝影走進繪畫?
其實我是從事設計的,因為我學設計,學完設計之後,我覺得設計需要攝影,於是又學了攝影,學完攝影之後,因為我打小就喜歡畫畫,在學校都一直有畫畫,於是就一直畫畫,所以就有了畫畫、攝影、搞設計這樣。我又很喜歡創作每一件東西,譬如我可以用畫紙畫畫,其實也可以板畫畫,又可以用布畫畫,最近我又用報紙紙畫畫。其實一個藝術家,一個藝術工作者,或者所喜歡藝術的,其實就是要不斷創作,賦予大家一種很快樂,很有視覺,很開心,其實是一個藝術家應該做的事。
