Adel Abdessemed probes the wounds of our present. His art, which spans the media of drawing, video, sculpture, poetry, sound, and installation, unfolds as a powerful experience of opposing materials, emotions, and concepts. Titled An Imperial Message after Franz Kafka’s short parable, the exhibition features around 40 pieces of work by the artist, among which more than 10 are newly created. Collectively, the works on view carve out an introspective journey, inviting audience to reflect upon the violence pervading the contemporary world we inhabit and confront our own profound feelings, fears, and desires.

阿岱尔·阿德斯梅（Adel Abdessemed）研究并探索我们当下的创伤，他的作品跨越绘画、影像、雕塑、诗歌、声音等不同媒介，展现了材料、情感和概念的强烈碰撞。本次展览以弗兰兹·卡夫卡的短篇寓言《御旨》（An Imperial Message）命名，集中呈现艺术家的40余件作品，其中10余件为新作。阿德斯梅邀请观众通过展览开启一场内省之旅，思考遍布世界的暴力行为，以及直面我们内在的感受、恐惧和欲望。
