Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

The artwork features a vibrant and intricate robot-like figure in shades of red, gold, and green. The overall composition is dynamic, with the figure's angular, geometric shapes and extended limbs creating a sense of movement and power. The piece employs a high-contrast color scheme, with the red and gold hues standing out against the dark green background. The figure appears to be a stylized, futuristic warrior, with distinctive Japanese-inspired elements, such as the kanji characters. The artwork likely reflects the artist's interest in blending technology, mythology, and cultural symbolism to create a striking, visually captivating piece. ...

Artist
Lu Yang 陆扬
B.1984, Chinese

Lu Yang (b.1984, Shanghai) lives and works in Beijing and Shanghai. His 3D animations and installations explore fundamental questions about the relationships between the body and consciousness, spirituality and science, technology and the limits of being human. Yang introduces his own body into many of his works, subjecting this proxy to myriad experiments that seem to perpetually stage his own multiplication, disintegration, or dissection. The artist’s recent works revolve around the character DOKU, who Yang conceives as a digital shell or virtual human. DOKU is named after the phrase “Dokusho Dokushi,” meaning “We are born alone, and we die alone.” Yang has been working on the digital assets for this non-binary avatar for over two years and considers the character a reincarnation of himself into a digital parallel universe. Yang’s experiments with DOKU take on many forms, including a series of iconic light boxes recently displayed in the solo exhibition Digital Descending at ARoS in Aarhus, Denmark. ...

Société is a Berlin-based gallery with an international profile—its core operations lay in Europe, the United States, and Asia. The gallery’s exhibitions, publications, and boundary-pushing initiatives have established a vital dialogue among artists working internationally. Société focuses on establishing long-term, symbiotic relationships with its gallery artists, many of whom had their first solo exhibition with the gallery. The structure of the gallery’s program and the format of its projects is an artist-led approach that responds to the ever-evolving conditions of artistic research and production—at times even pushing beyond traditional exhibition formats. Although differing in media and approach, Société’s artists address the relationship between cultural production and consumption, the circulation of information, identity, and cultural history in an era highly mediated by technology. The gallery's publishing initiative Edition Société, has worked with accomplished graphic designers on a number of acclaimed artist's books. The gallery has additionally produced 12" records with several contemporary musicians. Société has exhibited at Art Basel / Art Basel Miami Beach / Art Basel Hong Kong / Frieze London / Frieze New York / Frieze LA / ARCO Madrid / Independent New York / Independent Brussels / Art Cologne / Art Brussels / Enter Art Fair / Gallery Weekend Berlin / and Art Berlin among other locations. ...
