胡安·米格尔·帕拉西奥斯
简介Biography
胡安·米格尔·帕拉西奥斯（Juan Miguel Palacios），1973年出生于西班牙马德里，现工作和生活于纽约。他的创作长期游走于抽象与具象表达的边界地带，持续探索两者之间微妙而复杂的张力关系。在他看来，绘画不仅是图像的呈现，更是一种具有物质属性与身体经验的存在，因此材料本身的重量、痕迹与生成过程成为作品意义建构的重要组成部分。通过反复覆盖、擦除、叠加与留存的创作方式，他构建出一种介于现实与想象之间的空间场域，使抽象形式获得某种若隐若现的具象身份。在其近年的系列作品《虚无的实质》（The Substance of Nothingness）中，他进一步关注环境、记忆与文化经验如何塑造个体感知，并试图打破那些被习以为常的叙事框架，在不断的解构与重构之中引导观者重新审视真实与虚无、意识与存在之间的关系。胡安的作品曾在国际范围内广泛展出并被重要机构及私人收藏，其个展先后举办于纽约、上海、伦敦及莫斯科等城市。
Juan Miguel Palacios, born in 1973 in Madrid, Spain, currently lives and works in New York. His practice has long navigated the boundary between abstract and figurative expression, persistently exploring the subtle yet complex tension between them. In his view, painting is not merely the presentation of images, but an existence imbued with material properties and bodily experience; thus the weight, traces, and generative process of materials become integral to the construction of meaning in his works. Through repeated acts of covering, erasing, layering, and retaining, he constructs a spatial realm situated between reality and imagination, endowing abstract forms with an elusive figurative identity. In his recent series *The Substance of Nothingness*, he further examines how environment, memory, and cultural experience shape individual perception, and seeks to dismantle narratives that have been taken for granted, guiding viewers through continuous deconstruction and reconstruction to re-examine the relationships between reality and nothingness, consciousness and existence. Juan Miguel Palacios’s works have been exhibited widely internationally and are held in major institutional and private collections. His solo exhibitions have been held in cities including New York, Shanghai, London, and Moscow.

据平台档案，**胡安·米格尔·帕拉西奥斯（Juan Miguel Palacios）**，1973 年生于西班牙马德里，现生活、工作于纽约。
### 代表作
- **“变奏”系列（2024）**
如《变奏 第五十五号》《变奏 第八十一号》《变奏 第六十二号》《变奏 第九十七号》《变奏 第六十五号》《变奏 第九十五号》等。
该系列多使用布面丙烯、油性颜料棒、喷漆与马克笔等混合媒介。
- **“SKIN”系列**
如《SKIN-XL》《SKIN-L》《SKIN-XXXIV》《SKIN-XXXVIII》《SKIN-XLVII》等，体现出他对材料与身体经验的持续关注。
- **《虚无的实质》（The Substance of Nothingness）系列**
这是其近年重要创作方向，关注环境、记忆与文化经验如何塑造个体感知，并试图打破习以为常的叙事框架。
### 创作特点
1. **抽象与具象之间的边界探索**
帕拉西奥斯长期游走于抽象与具象表达的边界地带，持续挖掘两者之间微妙而复杂的张力关系。他的作品既不是纯粹抽象，也不落入具象再现，而是让抽象形式获得某种若隐若现的具象身份。
2. **强调材料与身体经验**
他认为绘画不只是图像呈现，更是一种具有物质属性与身体经验的存在。因此，材料本身的重量、痕迹与生成过程，成为作品意义建构的重要组成部分。他常用反复覆盖、擦除、叠加与留存的方式，构建出介于现实与想象之间的空间场域。
3. **记忆、身份与感知的解构与重构**
在《虚无的实质》系列中，他进一步关注环境、记忆与文化经验如何塑造个体感知，通过不断的解构与重构，引导观者重新审视真实与虚无、意识与存在之间的关系。
4. **内省与精神性**
展览文章亦指出，对帕拉西奥斯而言，“流变”不仅是画面形态的更迭，更是艺术家向内拆解自我、以纯粹觉知进行创作的漫长旅程。从西班牙到美国的文化冲击，使他对身份、记忆、规训与习惯产生持续反思，艺术由此成为一场向内的精神修行。
综上，帕拉西奥斯的代表作以“变奏”“SKIN”和“虚无的实质”系列为核心，其创作特点融合了抽象与具象的边界实验、物质性身体体验、对记忆与身份的深层解构，以及强烈的内省精神。
Juan Miguel Palacios (b. 1973, Madrid; lives and works in New York) is known for working at the boundary between abstraction and figuration.
**Representative works**
His representative works include the ongoing **“Variations” (变奏)** series, such as *Variation No. 55* (2024, acrylic, oil stick, and marker on canvas), *Variation No. 81* (2024, acrylic, spray paint, and marker on canvas), *Variation No. 62*, *Variation No. 97*, *Variation No. 65*, and *Variation No. 95*, as well as the **“SKIN”** series, including *SKIN-XL*, *SKIN-L*, *SKIN-XXXIV*, *SKIN-XXXVIII*, and *SKIN-XLVII*.
**Creative style**
His practice is characterized by a restrained yet charged exploration of the tension between abstraction and figuration. He treats painting not only as image-making but as a material and bodily practice, in which the weight, traces, and generation of materials are central to meaning. Through repeated layering, erasure, superimposition, and preservation, he constructs an ambiguous space between reality and imagination, allowing abstract forms to acquire a suggestive figurative identity. In his recent series **“The Substance of Nothingness,”** he focuses on how environment, memory, and cultural experience shape perception, seeking to unsettle habitual narrative frameworks and invite viewers to reconsider the relationships between reality and nothingness, consciousness and existence.
