2024 Alejandro Monge from TING TING ART SPACE 丁丁藝術空間

蒙吉（Alejandro Monge）曾於薩拉戈薩美術學院修習美術、雕塑和視覺設計。目前專注於雕塑創作。Alejandro Monge所繪的肖像超越了平面作品之視覺縱深，他創作的體積和深度使它們幾乎有如雕塑一般，突破二維空間。儘管Alejandro Monge在接受視覺藝術培訓時專攻雕塑，但在他的藝術作品中，繪畫的部分則以超寫實的方式令人驚艷，這種方式讓人聯想到攝影，並試圖欺騙觀察者的眼睛。

而後，他開始專注於是雕塑和裝置的創作，其中一個系列創作的主題圍繞在逼真的鈔票雕塑。 Monge 用紙和丙烯顏料將之重現，並大量疊放成堆，通常將其焚燒。 通過毀掉自己的作品，諷刺性體現他對當今社會和經濟價值之無所不能的統治提出了批評，此系列創作引起國際媒體廣泛的報導和關注。

Alejandro Monge 將破壞作為一種新的創造形式進行了反思。 而被當代古典元素入侵的半身像，仍然以最純粹的巴洛克風格或反映時事的標誌性物品燃燒著。 藉此，Monge 呈現了一個不拘一格的展覽，將不同的技術和材料結合在一起，產生了一種不尋常的審美挑戰。

Born in 1988, studied Fine Arts, Sculpture and Visual Design at the Zaragoza Academy of Fine
Arts. Currently focusing on sculpturing

The portraits painted by Alejandro Monge transcend the visual depth of two-dimensional works. The volume and depth of his creations make them almost sculptural, striving to break through two-dimensional space.

Although Alejandro Monge specialized in sculpture during his visual arts training, in his art the painted parts are stunning in a hyperrealistic way that is reminiscent of photography and tries to trick the eyes of the observers.

Afterwards, he began to focus on the creation of sculptures and installations, one of which revolved around realistic banknote sculptures.
Monge recreates them on paper and acrylic paint, stacking them in large piles, often in order to incinerate them. By destroying his own work, he satirizes his criticism of the omnipotent domination of today's social and economic values, and this series has attracted extensive coverage and attention in the international media.

Alejandro Monge reflects on destruction as a new form of creation. While busts invaded by contemporary classical elements, still burn in the purest Baroque style or iconic objects reflecting contemporary events.With this, Monge presents an eclectic exhibition that combines different techniques and materials to generate an unusual aesthetic challenge.
