In 2000, Cao Mengqin flunked out of the microelectronics department and completed the video works Bathroom and Earthquake from 2006 to 2008. Since 2010, he has been studying (ancient Chinese) iconography with Dr. Ni Yibin and working at the Institute of Corpus Studies and Applications of Shanghai International Studies University (SISU) as a researcher and an academic editor for the Centre for Study of Stories of China (CSSC), constructing Multimodal Corpus of Pun Rebus (MCPR) to study the traditional Chinese auspicious meanings.
Between 2016 and 2022, he adopted still photography as a medium, using photomontage, artificial colouring and other methods to recreate the spiritual world with classical tendencies, exploring the issues of time and space and fiction vs. reality in photography. The main subjects of his works include Buddhist statues, Chinese landscape (shan shui), Chinese gardens and cultural heritage. The media used in his works are mostly East Asian handmade paper and silk, and it is from these materials that he has developed his craftsmanship applied to photography. During this period, he founded the duo Fang Mengqin with photographer Fang Xiaohe.
From 2023, he shifts focus towards creating mixed visual works involving film and still . The themes range from semi-fictional realism to visual representation based on Chinese historical stories.

Joel-Peter Witkin was born in Brooklyn, New York in 1939 at the beginning of WWII to Mary and Max Witkin. As he grew, his father would show him photograph of the war in the newspapers. Joel decided then to be a photographer. He has made photographs since he was a child. After high school, Joel worked in photographic studios and laboratories.
Joel enlisted in the army as a photographer when he was 21. His "war" was the Cuban Missile Crisis of 1963 when "a World War III" was in the balance.
After three years of service, Joel received a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the Cooper Union in Sculpture and a Fellowship in Poetry from Columbia University in 1974.
He received a Masters in Arts and a Master of Fine Arts in Photography from the University of New Mexico in 1976 and 1986 respectively.
He has received four National Endowment for the Arts in photography from the United States. He has had over 150 one person exhibitions in galleries and museums. Twenty-five monographs have been published on his work. He is listed in "Who's Who in American Art", "Who's Who in America" and "Who's Who in the World".
Among his honors: He was given the title of Commander of Arts and Letters of France in the year 2000.
Joel lives with his wife Barbara on their small ranch in New Mexico with five horses, four llamas, 150 chickens , three dogs and two cats.
Next is the introduction Joel himself will present to the audience:
I am happy and humbled to be in China and to exhibit and explain my work.
My work is about the condition of man in the world, through the history ,culture and beliefs of Western Man.
I don't make photographs of man in the world the way many photographers do. Instead, I bring the world to a photographic studio and there, through my imagination, create the "worlds" I wish to photograph. I build the sets, find the subjects-then direct the events until I choose the perfect, most meaningful moment: I then take that moment OUT OF TIME and make it permanent as the photographic print which I alone can create.
What that print must reveal are the physical, spiritual and emotional realities of "what it is to be human". That is out truths, fantasies, follies, our morality, our loves, hopes and fears.
But, what that print must contain within it is the metaphysical evidence of its maker's consciousness. All that the artist is, loves, believes in, lives for and needs to share with others. How that happens is the great mystery, the hunger of why art is created.
It can never be explained because artists are born-not made.
They are given a gift-the need to create original visions which inform and illuminate all of us.

Ralph Steinegger, born in 1976 in Zurich, is a Swiss photographer who has lived in Rio de Janeiro, Beijing, New York, Istanbul, Singapore and Shanghai. His early interest in maps and stories of explorers has instilled in him a curiosity for the world around him, which defines him as a person but also shapes his approach to photography. He has a profound interest in the urban landscapes of the rapidly growing megacities of this world, particularly their continuous transformation, inherent contradictions, and things slightly out of place. While his images often lack a visible human presence, they document the spaces we inhabit and the environment we shape. Ralph is fascinated by the adaptability of the human species, our ability to find comfort in the most inhospitable conditions, and to make any place feel like home. He was among the winners of the Urbanautica Institute Award 2020 in the category environment, nature, perspectives. His work has been published in various international print and online magazines, such as Royal Photography Society, Paper Journal, Urbanautica, Desired Landscapes, Anima Loci, Panorama, Noice Magazine, etc.
