新西兰物产丰饶，文化艺术多姿多彩，是一个充满和平与美好的国度。Kiwi鸟，又称奇异鸟，是新西兰的象征，代表着神圣而稀有的物种。尽管它不会飞翔，却能以惊人的速度奔跑，象征着新西兰的坚韧与非凡魅力。

New Zealand, a land of abundant resources and rich cultural and artistic diversity, is a nation imbued with peace and beauty. The Kiwi bird, also known as the Kiwi, symbolizes New Zealand, representing a sacred and rare species. Despite its inability to fly, the Kiwi can run at remarkable speeds, embodying the resilience and extraordinary charm of New Zealand.

7月18日，沁·艺术馆将展出来自新西兰及中方艺术家的展览“飞翔的奇异鸟·中新艺术对话联展”及联展沙龙活动，展览将传递出新西兰丰富的文化内涵，展示出超越种种困难的精神，让艺术的翅膀，跨越浩瀚的大海，向世界传递信心与决心，以及中新艺术与产业贸易间的互动新方向！

On July 18th, the Qin Art Gallery will host the exhibition "Flying Kiwi: A Sino-New Zealand Art Dialogue" along with a salon event. This exhibition will convey the rich cultural connotations of New Zealand, showcasing a spirit that transcends various challenges. Through the wings of art, it will cross vast oceans, transmitting confidence and determination to the world, and highlighting new directions in the interaction between Chinese and New Zealand art and trade industries.

此次将特别展出新西兰著名艺术家SWEAT & FLOX的作品，他们是新西兰及大洋洲地区著名的艺术家夫妻，他们在各自的艺术创作领域，取得卓越的成绩，频繁出现在新西兰和国际艺术展览中，同时，他们也是活跃的公共艺术创作者，在世界各地，创作了脍炙人口，享有盛誉的大型公共艺术作品，在艺术创作领域，享有良好的盛誉。

The exhibition will feature works by the renowned New Zealand artists SWEAT & FLOX, the celebrated artist in New Zealand and the Oceania region. They have achieved remarkable success in their respective fields of artistic creation and frequently appear in New Zealand and international art exhibitions. Additionally, they are active public art creators, having produced acclaimed large-scale public art works around the world, earning a stellar reputation in the field of art creation.

在2024年5月，他们首次将他们的作品带到了中国，并在那里创作了首幅作品《城市之翼》。这件作品也会与其他27件作品一起亮相沁·艺术馆，与来自广州美术学院教授/研究生导师/广东省美协会员/广东女画家协会设计艺委会副主任 么冰儒老师的水墨万象作品一同展示与对话。《城市之翼》象征着人们心中向往的人与自然和谐共处的美丽花园，同时也代表着大千世界、生命万象，体现了中西方对生命、对世界的深刻热爱与探索。这次展览将佛山描绘成一个热爱、包容、深邃、从容、宁静、和谐、充满诗意的城市，将环境与人文完美融合在心中。希望通过这次现场艺术展览活动，促进中国佛山与新西兰在艺术领域的创新合作与发展。

In May 2024, they brought their artworks to China for the first time and created their debut piece "Urban Wings" there. This piece, along with 27 other works, will be showcased at the Qin Art Gallery, engaging in dialogue with the ink painting works of Professor Mo Bingru from the Guangzhou Academy of Fine Arts, who is also a member of the Guangdong Provincial Artists Association and Deputy Director of the Design Art Committee of the Guangdong Female Painters Association. "Urban Wings" symbolizes the beautiful garden of harmony between humans and nature, and represents the vast world and the myriad facets of life, reflecting a deep love and exploration of life and the world by both Eastern and Western cultures. This exhibition will depict Foshan as a city of love, inclusiveness, depth, serenity, harmony, and poetic beauty, perfectly blending the environment and humanities in the heart. It is hoped that this live art exhibition will promote innovative cooperation and development in the field of art between Foshan, China, and New Zealand.
