Alexej Sachov
Alexej Sachov is a Ukrainian-German conceptual artist working with photography, in single captures made underwater: he sets the conditions, the sea composes the image. Organisms drawn to his light write a code in one exposure; light through rising bubbles takes volume; marine debris released in weightlessness collides into figures the strobe fixes. A trace in nature becomes matter, light becomes sculpture, chance becomes form. Shown in Aesthetica Art Prize exhibitions at York Art Gallery and Mercer Art Gallery, Harrogate, at the Florida Museum of Photographic Arts, Tampa, and Technische Sammlungen Dresden. Solo booths 2026: AIPAD, Park Avenue Armory, New York, and Photo Basel. The Knight: Best of Photo Basel 2024 (The Guardian, PhMuseum).
Resonant Light: five artists
"Resonant Light explores what happens between light, matter, memory, technology, nature, and perception. It begins with things that are often almost impossible to hold onto: a shift in light, an intuition, a memory, a fragment of code, a trace left in matter or nature. The artist catches the signal, transforms it, amplifies it, and passes it on. Light becomes sculpture. Code becomes matter. Memory becomes image. And the viewer becomes part of the resonance." Organised by Rukh Art Hub, New York, and Maison Bulle. Full programme: rukharthub.com/resonant-light.
Bernard Tirtiaux is a Belgian artist whose practice has centered on glass, sculpture, architecture, and the transformative possibilities of light for more than five decades. He has created more than 700 original stained-glass works, alongside monumental sculptures and architectural commissions across Europe. Major projects include the seven-ton Cathedral of Light in Viroinval, commissions for the Château du Val Saint-Lambert and the Romanesque church of Esquelmes, as well as numerous large-scale works in Belgium, France, and Switzerland. Tirtiaux is also an acclaimed writer whose literary and visual practices have developed in parallel throughout his career.
Shaul Tzemach is an Israeli multidisciplinary artist working across generative systems, drawing, sculpture, light, computation, and physical fabrication. His work has been presented at the Israel Museum, Haifa Museum, Museum of Arts and Design in New York, Ars Electronica in Linz, Mane Katz Museum, and Erarta Museum in St. Petersburg, among others. He received the America-Israel Prize and the Young Artist Prize from Israel’s Ministry of Education and Culture. Recent solo projects include Stochastic Resonance and Event Horizon.
Roman Minin is a Ukrainian artist whose practice spans monumental art, painting, sculpture, stained glass, photography, digital media, and augmented reality, with the industrial culture of Eastern Ukraine forming a major thread throughout his work. A pioneer of digital experimentation in Ukrainian contemporary art, Minin has worked with augmented reality since 1999 and developed his concept of transmonumentalism. His work has been presented at the Ludwig Museum in Budapest, National Art Museum of Ukraine, Permanent Mission of Ukraine to the Council of Europe in Strasbourg, C-Mine in Genk, and Le Bois du Cazier in Charleroi, among other institutions. In 2015, Forbes Ukraine named him the country’s most promising artist. Resonant Light includes works from his new series Amplificateurs d’amour.
