The opening reception of “Spiel allein” was successfully held on November 7, 2022, 18:00-20:00 London time, hosted by Wuchao Feng and Yue Yin, the executive curators of Gallery NAT London. During the private view, more than 200 guests, artists, curators, gallery owners, art lovers, media and press, gathered in the Gallery 46 to view the artworks and have conversations about academic, commercial, social issues related to art. The visitors, ranging from the elderly to the young, from established artists to emerging students, sparking new ideas during the creative collision. The seemingly incidental debate of art, philosophy, and social events is in fact also a result of how art has been inevitably deeply rooted in the real society.

The members of the jury are: curator and art history critic Dr. Lara M. Evans; New York independent curator, author Nina Mdivani; New York-based art historian and curator Dr. Aimé Isias Lukin; California-based independent curator Niku Kashef.
