Art Madrid 2026

YIRI ARTS is pleased to participate in Art Madrid 2026 (Booth B6), presenting works by Huang Hsiao-Yen, Crystal Lupa (Lü Shao-Yu), Chiu Huai-Hsuan, Wu Chia-Yun, Li Fang, Chang Chun-Yi, and Chen Yun. The fair will take place from 4-8 March 2026 at Galería de Cristal, CentroCentro Cibeles, Madrid.

This year marks a pivotal shift: a curated project uniting seven female artists across generations, whose practices trace the evolving topography of contemporary femininities within Taiwan's sociocultural landscape.Spanning painting, video, photography, and installation, the exhibition traverses entangled terrains of gender, relationship, memory, and resilience. Rather than offering a singular narrative, it assembles a polyphonic map of contemporary femininity-fluid, fragmented, and in perpetual re-formation.

Li Fang responds to the austere legacies of war and patriarchy with quiet insistence: scarcity becomes spiritualsustenance in her translucent, meditative ink works. Wu Chia-Yun's mixed-media photography articulates the affective aftermath of loss and displacement, where the unspeakable finds resonance in shared memory. Through a dismantling of the artist-curator dichotomy, Chang Chun-Yi activates a dialogic model of authorship, tracing identity as something co-constructed through the gaze of the other.

For Chiu Huai-Hsuan, resilience is grounded in the physical: through labor-intensive processes and raw timber drawn from the earth, she summons a strength that is both bodily and spiritual. Multiplicity takes poetic form in Chen Yun's montage-like paintings, where fragments of memory and perception are reassembled into layered visual fields-suggesting meaning not as fixed, but constantly shifting. Lastly, Crystal Lupa (Lü Shao-Yu) reclaims the gaze through maternal subjectivity, presenting the mother not as object but as axis-soft, luminous, and central in the constellation of female agency.Huang Hsiao-Yen works from the dual perspective of artist and curator, translating her experience of living abroad into a poetic attentiveness to everyday moments. Through the interweaving of lines and symbols, her oil paintings generate nuanced layers of color and a subtle sense of light and space.

Together, these six practices form a constellation of divergent expressions that embrace complexity and contradiction. The exhibition unfolds as a curatorial assemblage-gesturing toward modes of becoming rather than being, and inviting viewers to encounter the multiple, the liminal, and the yet-to-be-articulated forms of the feminine in contemporary Taiwan.
