For our inaugural presentation at PHOTOFAIRS | Shanghai, Sean Kelly is pleased to present a carefully curated booth drawn from our internationally acclaimed roster of artists, each of the artists featured works with photography in non-traditional ways. Our presentation includes works by Marina Abramović, who is represented by a stunning self-portrait depicting the artist's face covered in gold leaf; Julian Charrière, whose images of nuclear test sites have been exposed to radioactive soil gathered from the locations where his images were taken; Jose Dávila, who appropriates images of artworks, which he then physically alters by cutting out and removing the focal point of the image; Mariko Mori, who creates computer generated photo paintings based on drawings she made of the ocean on Okinawa Island; Alec Soth, whose captivating multi-layered photograph of Monika is in fact a double exposed image; and Wu Chi-Tsung, whose manipulates light sensitive cyanotype paper to create images that incorporate traditional Chinese art but are in fact contemporary abstract works.
2019 Spotlight Section: Marina Abramović
Featured this year is Marina Abramović's legendary Chinese series 'The Lovers', 1988. A defining moment in the history of performance art, this will be the first opportunity for audiences in Mainland China to view the final collaborative work that Abramović made with her former partner Ulay.

Sean Kelly 畫廊為上海影像藝術博覽會的首次亮相帶來精心策劃的展位,精選畫廊旗下國際知名藝術家們先鋒性的攝影創作。其中包括瑪莉那・阿布拉莫維奇(Marina Abramović)一件令人驚嘆的藝術家肖像代表作,細膩展現其由金箔覆蓋的臉龐;朱利安・夏利耶(Julian Charrière)關於核子試驗場的作品,使用採集自其拍攝地點的放射性土壤進行曝光;何塞・達維拉(Jose Dávila)挪用著名藝術品的影像,透過物理性的剪切手法移除影像中的視覺重點;森萬里子(Mariko Mori)以電腦運算製作的攝影繪畫作品,源自於她在沖繩時看著大海所繪製的無數畫作;艾力克・索斯(Alec Soth)充滿魅力的多層次照片《莫妮卡》實際上是雙重曝光的影像;吳季璁使用曝光後揉皺的感光氰版宣紙創造出融合傳統山水美學的當代抽象作品。
