Lingrou Xie
Group Exhibition：Basel Social Club
Artist：Lingrou Xie
Duration：2026.6.14-2026.6.20
Venue：Erdbeergraben 1.4051 Basel
Basel Social Club 2026: Office took place in Basel from June 14–20. This year's edition occupied a vacant office building near Basel SBB railway station, activating its various floors through exhibitions, performances, music, food, and informal encounters. Conceived around the theme and setting of the office, the project responds to the ongoing transformation of work, time, and systems of production in the age of digitalization, remote infrastructure, and artificial intelligence.
As one of the most distinctive independent initiatives during Basel Art Week, Basel Social Club has consistently sought to operate beyond the conventional art fair model. By exploring alternative ways for art to be encountered, experienced, and woven into everyday life, it creates a more open, socially driven, and experimental platform for exchange.
Residency：The Prism
Artist： Lingrou Xie
Venue：ris Art Museum
The fourth residency program of Iris Art Museum’s “PROJECT UNTITLED: Unbounded Artist Initiative” will officially launch in April 2026. This edition, titled “Lingrou Xie: The Prism”, invites artist Lingrou Xie to participate in the residency-based creative project.
Lingrou's work is like light passing through a prism of memory. Drawing from her personal perspective, she reshapes forms of life-her fantastical imaginings, restrained emotions, and enduring gentle vitality mirror the rich spectrum contained within white light. In her creative process, she takes this beam of light-her unique life experience-and breaks, refracts, and rearranges it through the prism of her own vision. Using layered imagery of concealment, she mimics how memory is rewritten and overwritten: each overlay is a refraction, each obscuration a dispersion. What emerges on canvas is a visual spectrum reassembled after countless refractions-cool yet abundant, soft yet profound.
Di Yang
Group Exhibition：City of Fiction-Aranya Theatre Festival Featured Performances
Artist：Di Yang
Duration：2026.6.17-2026.6.20
Venue： Aranya Lonely Outer Theater
At the invitation of director Minghao Chen, artists Xu Zhen, Lu Pingyuan, and Liu Ning joined the theatrical production of Wencheng as members of its artistic advisory team, bringing together works by artists including Ma Qiusha, Di Yang, Wang Sishun, and Yu Zhou as integral elements within the performance.
Di Yang's work appears to trace the self-awakening and rebirth of a female protagonist, drawing inspiration from the popular “rebirth” genre of female-oriented fiction. Although composed of only a single scene, a single shot, and the unfolding of an unseen inner event, the work possesses a quiet yet compelling force, sustaining the viewer's attention through its emotional intensity and narrative openness.
Group Exhibition：Miss Holly On The Trip
Artist：Di Yang
Duration：2026.6.5-2026.8.26
Venue：Shanghai Huangpu District, No. 190 Beijing East Road, Shamei Building
The exhibition brings together thirteen artists and designers—Dylan Do, Feng Yan, Marcin Rusak, Marta Sturdy, Jeremy Tilqueur, Wen Qi, Di Yang, Bangliang Yao, Huilan Yuan, Ning Zhang, Yixiong Zhang, Comité de Proyectos, and Raka Studio—alongside a selection of vintage and collectible design furniture integrated throughout the space. Together, these works form the exhibition as a whole. Bringing together diverse media and artistic approaches, the exhibition unfolds not through a single narrative, but as a layered field of experience.
Beginning with the in-transit condition of Miss Heli, the exhibition further transforms this continuous state of movement and impossibility of settling into a spatial structure that can be physically experienced: the train. Rather than functioning as a metaphor for travel, the train operates as a concrete mechanism of movement. It carries fragments, continually shifts perspectives, and keeps us suspended in the act of passing through rather than arriving. Within this framework, the exhibition gradually unfolds into two interwoven trajectories: the “Train of Reality” and the “Train of the Mind.”
Group Exhibition：Digital Art: Between Sharing and Ownership
Artist：Di Yang
Duration：2026.4.23-2026.6.21
Venue： Haeundae Platform，Busan, South Korea
Agent artist Di Yang participates in the group exhibition Digital Art: Between Sharing and Ownership in South Korea. The exhibition is held at Haeundae Platform in Busan, as part of the Loop Lab Busan 2026 program. Initiated by the Busan Museum of Art, Loop Lab Busan is an international digital media art platform that unfolds across multiple venues throughout the city. Through exhibitions, forums, and public programs, it continues to explore how digital technologies reshape contemporary artistic production, circulation, and modes of viewing.
Digital Art: Between Sharing and Ownership focuses on the shifting relationship between sharing and ownership in the digital age. With the rise of networked communication, artificial intelligence, NFTs, and digital media, artworks have long moved beyond the boundaries of traditional physical media. In processes of infinite reproducibility, rapid circulation, and continuous re-production, they have redefined the relationships between authors, audiences, and works themselves. The exhibition brings together artists from Korea, China, and other regions, presenting works across moving image, digital installation, and new media practices. It responds to the complex conditions of digital images as they circulate, transform, and accumulate value within contemporary networks.
Mustafa Boga
Group Exhibition：Flora Fantastica
Artist：Mustafa Boga
Duration：2026.5.6-2026.7.26
Venue：Giardini Reali
Mustafa Boga is participating in the group exhibition Flora Fantastica, presented by Swatch Art Peace Hotel. Held in the enchanting greenhouse of Venice's Giardini Reali, the exhibition brings together five former artists-in-residence of Swatch Art Peace Hotel whose practices are deeply rooted in nature. Interweaving stories, materials, and colors within the greenhouse setting, the exhibition creates an immersive environment where the artworks enter into dialogue with the surrounding landscape, unfolding a space that exists between nature, growth, and imagination.
Mustafa Boga's practice has long explored the relationship between natural ecology, the cycles of life, and human experience. Through a delicate and poetic visual language, he investigates the emotional and spiritual dimensions embedded in plants, animals, and the environment. In Flora Fantastica, his work joins those of four fellow artists in a shared reflection on the imaginative possibilities of nature, while also continuing Swatch Art Peace Hotel's commitment to fostering cross-cultural artistic exchange through its international residency program.
Group Exhibition：Edirne Biennial
Artist：Mustafa Boga
Duration：2026.5.21-2026.6.28
Venue：Devecihan Culture Centre
Represented artist Mustafa Boga participated in the 9th Edirne Biennial. This year's biennial, themed "Bridges," explores connections and exchanges across cultures, histories, and geographies. As part of the biennial, the Contemporary Fiber Art section, curated by Atilla Güllü, is presented at the Devecihan Culture Centre, bringing together artists from different countries to examine the continuity, transformation, and renewal of traditional textile practices within a contemporary art context.
Weaving is among humanity's oldest forms of making, carrying with it a rich legacy of cultural memory and aesthetic tradition. In particular, the textile practices of Anatolia and Thrace have long been embedded in everyday life, evolving into a cultural heritage recognized around the world. Drawing upon this historical context, the exhibition places traditional weaving in dialogue with contemporary artistic practices, highlighting the expressive potential of fiber art through color, form, materiality, and spatial intervention, while reaffirming the enduring vitality of this ancient medium in contemporary art.
Wenjie Yu
Group Exhibition：Faith And Fingerprints
Artist：Wenjie Yu
Opening：2026.6.21
Venue：No. 558 Xiangyang South Road, Shanghai City, China - Zha Ji Mansion
Palm lines are the hidden traces of life, while faith is the fixed coordinate of the soul. This exhibition brings together the artistic practices of seven artists—Weng Jijun, Huang Wanbing, Xiao Tingting, Yu Wenjie, Li Xiaodan, Ding Dong, and He Tianqi—centering on the motif of the “hand.” Through diverse artistic languages, it condenses the warmth of individual life and the weight of spiritual belief into material form. Guided by the narrative framework of “Eastern cultural aesthetics,” each palm line and each imprint of the hand becomes a vessel through which the artists enter into dialogue with the self and with the world.
00 Zhang
Solo Exhibition：Catalyst
Artist：00 Zhang
Duration：2026.5.23-2026.7.25
Venue： MUD Gallery
In Catalyst, the solo exhibition of 00 Zhang at MUD Gallery, “life” is likewise not understood as a stable, natural, or fully formed entity. Instead, it exists in a metaphorical register between biological systems and computational systems, gradually transforming into a state of operation—one that is activated by systems, sustained by time, and capable of continuous replication.
Catalyst thus, in a sense, seeks a contemporary condition of “falling-out”: has life shifted from “being” to a mode of “continuous operation” (or conversely, has the logic of continuous operation begun to exceed that of “being” itself)? Behind this radical logic of self-replication, what is presented is not the dispersion or dissolution of the body through infinite copying and deviation. Rather, it is the moment in which the body, once absorbed into systems, re-enters a suspended state—situated between time, input, and maintenance—hovering within a fleeting interval that appears only through the gaps of the system itself.
