British fine art photographer Nick Veasey is the world pioneer of an innovative medium in contemporary art: X-RAY IMAGING. 

Working almost exclusively with X-ray technology, Veasey masterfully manipulates lethal radiation to create a dazzling balance of black and white extremes, revealing the details of bones and everyday objects within different narrative contexts.

His photographs have earned international acclaim and are featured in prestigious art institutions and science museums worldwide. Notably, his inclusion in the British National Collection of Photography at the Victoria and Albert Museum highlights the lasting impact of his innovative art. Veasey has additionally had five museum retrospectives: Mass MOCA, Fotagrafiska Stockholm, Erarta Museum St. Petersburg, Seoul Arts Center, and Amore Pacific Museum Korea. 

Orit Fuchs is a masterful storyteller whose large-scale artworks serve as a platform for reshaping perceptions of women's roles in society. Fuchs skillfully incorporates elements of pop culture and contemporary gender dynamics into her acrylic paintings, which draw inspiration from propagandistic advertising styles. Through vivid, illustrative female portraits, the artist navigates the complex interplay between reality and fiction, inviting viewers to contemplate gender perceptions.

Robert Szot creates his paintings without preconceived notions, letting spontaneity and the interplay of color and composition guide his process. Using oil paint, metal leaf, and charcoal on linen canvas, Szot’s abstract contemporary art uses mineralized, earthy hues that evoke awe and wonder. Rejecting traditional color theory, his intuitive choices craft a dynamic, formless space that connects the viewer intimately with his work.
