王懿泉，1987年出生于北京，从2014年至今生活和工作于上海，他是活跃于中国当代艺术领域的一位艺术家和策展人，也是活络空间设计事务所的创始合伙人。他近期的研究和创作主题在于：80后艺术家群体的代际现象和艺术实践，计划经济和市场经济交替时期的工厂和工艺，中国的激烈城镇化。

作为艺术家，王懿泉的艺术创作可以被视为针对展览格式发起的不断挑战，他将多种媒介融合在富于表演性的场景里，创作出具有参与感的现场活动和承载叙事的空间配置，以此对社会和文化议题发表个人化的评论。他的作品曾参与过不同艺术机构组织的展览与艺术项目，包括：六厂纺织文化艺术馆（2022，香港），上海明当代美术馆（2020，上海），熊本市现代美术馆（2018，日本熊本市），北京国际设计周（2017，2016，北京），上海当代艺术博物馆（2016，上海），chi K11 美术馆（2016，上海），中央美术学院美术馆（2015，北京），上海当代艺术馆（2015，上海），上午艺术空间（2013，上海）等。

策划展览和组织艺术活动是王懿泉艺术实践的重要组成部分，他视策展即创作，以“策一切”为核心概念，在过去多年里制作了多样化的文化项目。他近期的策展项目包括：《饮食超链接》（2024，瀫石光·艺术生态走廊，浙江省龙游县），《无题》（2023，中国上海国际艺术节，上海），《陈翠梅：就因为你按了快门吗？》（2023，阿尔勒国际摄影节，法国阿尔勒），《吾辈》（2022，SNAP艺术中心，上海），《都市观奇》（2021，上海民生现代美术馆和孙科别墅，上海）。

Wang Yiquan is an active figure in China’s contemporary art scene, working as an artist and curator, and is the founding partner of the spatial practice Acts and Pathways. Born in 1987 in Beijing, he has lived and worked in Shanghai since 2014. His recent research interests include the practices and generational trends of artists from China’s Post-1980s Generation, the transformation of factories and craftsmanship from a planned economy to a market economy, and China’s radical urbanization.

As an artist, Wang constantly challenges the format of exhibition-making. He transforms various artistic mediums into performative settings to create participatory live events and narrative spatial configurations, providing individual commentary on social and cultural issues. His works have been exhibited in institutions such as the Centre for Heritage, Arts and Textile, Hong Kong (2022); Ming Contemporary Art Museum, Shanghai (2020); Contemporary Art Museum Kumamoto, Japan (2018); Beijing Design Week, Beijing (2016, 2017); Power Station of Art, Shanghai (2016); chi K11 art museum, Shanghai (2016); CAFA Art Museum, Beijing (2015); Museum of Contemporary Art, Shanghai (2015); and am art space, Shanghai (2013), among others.

Curating exhibitions and planning art programs are integral aspects of Wang’s practice. He adheres to the concept of “Curating Everything,” viewing curating as an art form. Over the past decades, he has organized various thematic exhibitions and public events. Recent projects include The Hyperlink of Food, Hushiguang Art Eco Site, Longyou County, Zhejiang Province (2024); Untitled, China Shanghai International Arts Festival, Shanghai (2023); Tan Chui Mui: Just Because You Pressed the Shutter?, Rencontres d’Arles, France (2023); FELLOWS, SNAP, Shanghai, (2022), and Meditations on the Urban Spectacle, Shanghai Minsheng Art Museum, Sun Ke Villa, Shanghai (2021).
