BACA Art Centre and BACA Academy of Creative Arts is proud to present “BACA Young Contemporaries”, a program that is committed to offering talented artists and designers who are in their early career the opportunity to present their artworks, as well as to support young people developing their art. Our goal is to build a unique way to connect the public internationally and the local community with young art professionals and expanding the public’s cultural awareness through creative activities, social and online art events.
This year we are working alongside talented young people from BACA Academy of Creative Arts. Kevin Zhang’s new design <Be Cool> is showing his feelings towards the summer, while <A Deep> is a witty and expressive journey of Si’s subjective mind exploring fear and emotions.
The “BACA Young Contemporaries” future projects, artists will develop their creative practices into products, exploring and experiencing the creative cultural industry. However the products is not the only way that the artist will be promoted. The project will encourage further development, aesthetic and artistic knowledge, creative experience and to engage with the public, collectors and critics.
BACA艺术中心和BACA国际艺术教育很荣幸地推出“BACA Young Contemporaries”，一个致力于为处于早期职业规划的年轻艺术家和设计师提供展示他们作品机会的艺术项目，除此之外，这个项目还会帮助年轻创意者们拓展他们的艺术创作脉络。“BACA Young Contemporaries”旨在建立一个独特的交流平台，来将国际年轻的艺术创意者们与公众和社区联系起来，并通过线下创意实践、社区艺术活动和线上艺术项目来增强公众的文化艺术意识。
今年，我们带来了BACA国际艺术教育的2位年轻创意者的艺术设计。在2020年毕业于时尚管理与传媒大学预科的张乃文的艺术设计图像《凉凉的》中，观者可以感受到他对夏天的喜爱，以及分享那一丝丝凉凉的清爽；而《A Deep》则是毕业于国际艺术高中的“肆”她的一次主观探索心灵的旅程，恐花症的情感诙谐而富有表现力。
在“BACA Young Contemporaries”未来的项目中，我们将和年轻的艺术家和设计师们一起将他们的创意实践衍生成艺术周边产品，探索和体验文化创意产业。然而，产品的衍生只是该项目帮助这些年轻创意者们众多途径中的一种，我们将和他们一起成长，鼓励他们进一步增强其个体的美学理论和艺术知识，扩展其创意实践的经验，并能够完成与公众、收藏家和评论家更好的沟通和交流。

The inspiration of this design comes from the nostalgia for the cool feeling. The theme of the image is a popsicle. The hot red stripe is used to contrast the cool feeling of the popsicle.
这个设计的启发来源于对于凉凉的感觉的怀念。图像的主题是凉爽的冰棒，炙热的红色条纹用以来反衬冰棒的清凉。

This work is 1 / 16 of a large work. It is more of a very subjective statement. I have always felt that when I was painting and photographing, I presented my personal feelings and state, as well as my environment and experience. For me, the current creation is a relatively private individual practical experience, and I actually care less to the results of practice.
这个作品是一个大作品里的1/16， 它更多的是一个非常主观的陈述。我一直都觉得自己在进行绘画和摄影的创作时，呈现的是我当时的个体感受和状态，以及环境和经历。对于我来说，目前的创作是一个比较私密的个体实践经验，很多的时候并没有关注最终艺术实践的结果。

BACA (Beijing Academy of Creative Arts) was founded in 2011 by St. Elite Art Centre in Beijing. Working as UAL’s (University of the Arts London) official recruitment representative since 1998, St.Elite has been the main route for students to progress to UAL from China.
BACA is the first art academy in China, which is based on an international art and design curriculum. Our programmes include Foundation Diploma, A-Level, Level 2 Diploma, Portfolio Training and Art Tour, which provides a range of opportunities for Chinese students from Junior School level (15 years old) to Pre-University level (19 years old).
BACA’s educational philosophy is to encourage personal identity and creativity. All members of our teaching team have come through the western art and design education system, with strong academic backgrounds and international experiences in art and design education.
BACA’s international art and design courses have already become a meaningful addition to the Chinese education system, and artistic talents cultivated by BACA are forming the pillars of the developing creative industry of China.
