　　潘登（pandeng,china.nan jing)－1964年出生於南京。 “玩世现实”当代艺术家 作品范围油画，装置艺术。杨建侯艺术基金会会长，纽约哈德逊艺术协会会员 。现定居美国加州。
　　中国的文化大革命打破和批判了一切传统道德观念和文化思想，但却没有建立新的道德和文化信仰，旧的已遭捶弃，新的没有建立，以至于在经济高速发展的今天，人们内心又一次迷失…
　　马上(Shang Ma)
　　马上， 1987年出生于中国杭州，毕业于旧金山艺术大学油画系，获硕士学位，目前旅居于美国旧金山，当代具象表现主义的作品风格的油画创作是他目前主要的创作方向。
　　现实的生存环境，不同的文化体验，给他带来了理念上的强烈冲击，让马上从自身寻找自我存在与社会存在的联系，让他的作品画面有一种抒情的伤感，诠释着这代人的迷茫与抉择…
　　丹尼尔 Daniel Hoh
　　跨界艺术家丹尼尔（Daniel Hoh ）是美籍北京人，1995年加州大学洛杉矶分校（UCLA)电子工程系毕业，之后一直在硅谷的高科技公司工作，是资深工程师，主要负责研发和监测各类芯 片。在20多年和硅芯片打交道的过程中看见身边无数被淘汰的芯片从此沦为废品，热爱艺术的他逐渐受他的艺术评论家夫人和许多艺术家朋友的“熏陶”而 “玩上了创作”。在接触，参观了众多新的艺术展览后，他开始琢磨怎么把高科技与艺术结合起来，创作出与众不同的艺术品，而创作材料就是手边这些虽然高精密却已成为废品的“实验未通过”硅芯片. 让它们变废为宝重新转换身份成为艺术品。
　　曾妮
　　曾妮出身艺术世家，曾妮幼时就显示出了绘画方面的天赋。曾妮毕业于广州美术学院油画系，目前在四川大学艺术学院任职副教授。2003年迄今，曾妮先后在中国北京、上海、广州、成都、重庆、台北，法国巴黎，挪威奥斯陆，美国旧金山，加拿大温哥华，韩国首尔，日本东京等城市参加艺术展览及活动。
　　在曾妮的新作品里，我们看见了她对故土的山水、城市、古迹和文化的巨大变迁的深度思考。对一个出生，成长在长江边上的艺术家来说，长江流域越来越严重的工业污染、泥沙淤积、移民安置等问题，如同血管被严重阻塞的巨人，疲惫而病态，让她心痛，也给了她创作上的新突破。这种突破并不是声嘶力竭的呐喊，而是一种情感沉淀后的提炼与表达，变得舒缓而克制，保持着优雅的姿态。
　　王子豪
　　王子豪， 90后，旧金山艺术大学。当代艺术范围内的艺术形式都在尝试，以油画，水彩和装置艺术为主。王子豪的作品里有一种显而易见的“迷惑”。 或许 “寻找自己”和“沉浸”在自我的世界会让这代人与之前任何一代人有不一样的语境。

　　美国艺术家部分：
　　Andy Cunningham
　　My work is about painting. My work is about color. My work is about space,the grid, line, mass, and shape. My work is also about speed in working or theresidue of the act of working in a speedy fashion. My work is aboutcomposition. My work is about these things as content in the context of makingart. Born in New York, Andy Cunningham currently lives in Sacramento, wherehe teaches drawing at Sacramento Country Day School. Cunningham studiedstudio art at California College of Arts and Crafts and UC Davis and holds aMaster of Arts degree in Combined Media from Hunter College in New YorkCity.

He secretly wishes he were a better fly fisherman.
　　Jeff Musser
　　Statement:
　　Three years ago I was stagnant. I was comfortable, but my life and my art werecomplacent. I knew I was in need of a dramatic, seismic change in the way Ithought about and made paintings. I had to become REALLYUNCOMFORTABLE in order to push my life and my work in a new direction.So I moved to a country where I didn’t know anyone, had no connections,started a job I had no experience doing, with no knowledge of the language. Mymove to China was one of the most terrifying things I had ever done, but theuncomfortableness I felt reinvigorated my creative practice. This new body ofwork is based on the last two years I spent in various Chinese cities.
　　Before a painting becomes a painting, I now form a rough draft by making acollage. I use my own photographs, my own drawings, and other sourcematerial to form a blueprint for a particular emotion or recollection. Thisprocess is akin to how people construct memory, drawing together fragments ofimages to provoke wider unfolding associations, inviting us to consider howactions, events and representing images are interpreted. Recently this processhas become especially relevant. For me, the value of making collages comesfrom stitching together photos as a fabric, extracting information and thenproviding that cumulative information as a totally different package in the formof a painting. Now my painting process is more spontaneous and loose. Thebrush strokes are larger, more expressive, and I allow for happy mistakes tohappen in the studio. Even my pallet has expanded to include brighter colors.My new progression parallels the many dramatic hybrids of styles that haveoccurred within Chinese contemporary art and culture.
　　Gabriel M. Sanford

　　Kainan Becker
　　Kainan Becker is a artist from northern CA experimenting with mixed mediumsstriving to capture human emotion. By tearing at his blank canvas with a brushand what ever instrument fits his need. He finds a place between chaos andcontrol, allowing his voice to be heard.
　　Each original piece, be it on canvas, found wood, metal, or a old window ordoor, reflects the triumph of a soul finding release through startling deep,vibrant color. Each image is filled with passion, raw and visceral, brought to lifeby the workings of a creative mind, heart, and hands.
　　Sometimes sad and brutal, with dark yearnings. Sometimes vibrant and light,filled with hope and longing. Often crushing with despair or filled with mysteryand secret glimmers of magic, in every piece, even the most personal andpainful, there is a golden thread of triumph. The triumph of a soul being set free.Through art, he offers you a glimpse into his depths, his dreams and emotions.Each piece is a offering to share with you a piece of his self and an invitation toexperience the hidden poetry that resides within your soul.
　　Lily Mott
　　Lily Mott, a multi faceted concept artist working out of Sacramento Ca. She hasa background in set design, illustrating, graphic design, photography, all ofwhich contributes to her passion for creating complicated visual dialogues.Inspired by vogue fashion photography, window displays, thrift stores andanywhere that hosts human connection or performance.
