作為一位跨界藝術家，烏克蘭裔，自美國紐約移居西班牙巴塞隆納及馬德里，Iury Lech 在過 去 的30年間積極投身於音樂、影像藝術和文學創作領域，同時還是西班牙電子影像藝術領域中少數在音樂表演中啟用視覺效果的先鋒人物。他那開放而不拘一格的風格中透出先鋒派的影子，隨著緊密的影音衝擊而來的是流動的催眠氛圍和對實驗主義的另類思索。那些由他自 製 音軌的影像作品，和他的現場演出一樣，囊括了有針對性的多媒體舞台設置，從而最大程度的借助於互動式感知科技。他曾於諸多場合和活動中展示他的影像作品和現場演出，包括 奧 地利電子藝術節、西班牙未來藝術節、ISEA 國際電子藝術研討會、SONAR、Videoformes 影像 藝術節、馬德里和塞維利亞新音樂節、巴塞羅那實驗藝術節、紐約“紡織工廠”、馬德里 POPKOMM實驗藝術節等等。在2013 的土耳其伊茲梅爾雙年展上，他受邀作為官方藝術家出席，並榮獲“最佳影像藝術裝置”大獎。除了一貫的創作天賦外，近期他在製作人和導演領域的 雄心也正逐漸展露。 2008年他參與製作了一檔命為Transfera《轉移》的又參與了MADATAC 馬德里國際當代影音及新媒體藝術節的策展與執行工作，並於2009 年開電子藝術推廣計畫; 此後開啟了其他一些獨立計劃。2013年他受邀作為法國Videoformes 影像藝術節、羅馬 Mash電 影節和韓國 EXIS Exprimental 藝術節國際評審。

Iury Lech is a transdisciplinary artist that has developed his creativity working the last 30 years within the realm of video-art, music and literature, being part of the few pioneers in the Spanish electronic and digital audio-visual scene that in the 80‘s began to develop visual-aural performances and video art works. His open and unclassifiable style permeates the avant-garde concept by means of hypnotic visual and sonic atmospheres and an alternative way to conceive New Media Art experimentalism. His video-art works, for which he also composed the soundtracks, as well as his live perfomances, involves a multimedia stage set. He showed his video-art pieces and played at many venues and events such as Ars Electrónica, Art Futura, ISEA, SONAR, Video Festival Videoformes, Festival of New Musics of Madrid and Sevilla; LEM in Barcelona; Pop Komm Festival, Festival Experimenta in Madrid, ART BEIJING, DAFT Festival in Taipei_Taiwan, JMAF in Tokyo or Hong-Gah Museum Taipei. On May 2013 the 2nd Izmir Art Biennial in Turkey invited Iury Lech as an official artist, where the jury awarded him with the 1st prize for the Best Video Art installation. During 2013 he has been invited as a jury member of Videoformes Fest (Clermont-Ferrand, France), MAshRome Film Fest (Rome, Italy) and EXIS Experimental Festival (Seoul, South Korea). In January 2015 participates with his audio-visual work on the festival 700IS Reindeerland in Reykjavik, Iceland.

演出作品 Wuxian

 

本次Iury Lech的演出將是亞洲首次呈現，將帶來全新製作的表演。此作品”無限”是涉及到一 種 沈浸與感官知覺式的驅動，進入到 Iury Lech 廣泛探索的數位聲音和視覺藝術領域的一場現場音像表演。他開放不羈與難以被歸類的風格，突破一般前衛藝術的沉悶框架概念，透過預 言 式的氛圍、無節奏的聲波結構和一種緊密的音像佈景，為催眠式環境、工業極簡主義注入生命，並以抽象方式重啟實驗主義。

Wuxian (Unlimited/Infinitely) is an AV live performance that involves an immersive sensorial drive into Iury Lech’s extensive explorations on the fields of digital sound and visual art.His open and unclassifiable style permeates the tired avant-garde concept by means of apocalyptical atmospheres, arrhythmic sonic structures, and a dense audiovisual texture treatments that brings alive hypnotic ambients, industrial minimalism and a abstract way to conceive experimentalism.
