由北京全艺社主办“翻墙－百强现场绘画展”将于七月二十四日(星期六)下午五时于北京全艺社开幕。是次展览是北京全艺社开幕以来首个驻场艺术家—百强的个人作品展，百强本年七月底开始于北京全艺社进行为期一个月的驻场创作，于展场大厅制作一件大型绘画装置《翻墙》，驻场创作期间照常对外开放，观众可观看现场的创作过程，亦可与艺术家交流。
 

百强是澳门年青的艺术工作者，早年毕业于澳门理工学院艺术高等学校综合设计课程，主修平面设计，其创作范围甚广，除平面设计外，更常参与插画及摄影创作，百强同时是澳们本土乐队“刃记”的主音歌手，于澳门乐坛颇受年轻乐迷欢迎。
 

百强近年锐意发展其个人创作画风，将其一贯创作惯用的黑白线条无限延伸风格结合到不同的物料上，包括纸张、画布、木板以至墙身，年初百强受全艺社邀请，于“艺术北京2010国际艺术博览会”上进行五天的现场绘画创作，受到媒体以至参观者的好评与关注。今年五月及六月，应澳门特区政府文化局邀请，先后在“第六届深圳文博会”以及“第三届厦门文博会”的“澳门馆”中进行一连数天的现场绘画创作，吸引大量参观者目光，其创作风格更被广泛报导。
 

是次展览，除了展出百强于北京全艺社驻场创作的作品《翻墙》外，更会展出其早前于北京艺术博览会、深圳及厦门创作的大型作品等。驻场创作由七月一日至二十日对外开放，展览于七月二十四日(星期六)下午五时举行开幕仪式，展期至九月十二日。

Organised by AFA Beijing, Off the Wall – Live Painting by Pakeong opens at the AFA Beijing Contemporary Art Centre at 5:00pm on Saturday 24th July. This exhibition is the first solo exhibition showcasing the works of our resident artist since the opening of the Centre in Beijing. The resident artist, Pakeong, who has been presenting a one-month artist-in-residency show at AFA Beijing since July, in which he seeks to accomplish a large-scale painting installation entitled Off the Wall. As this show is open to the public, visitors may take this opportunity to observe the on-the-spot the creation process and exchange ideas with the artist.
 

As a young artist in Macao, Fortes Pakeong Sequeira was a graduate from the School of Arts, Macao Polytechnic Institute, majoring in graphic design. He engages in a wide variety of arts, in addition to graphic design, and frequently participates in the creation of illustrations and photography. He is also the lead singer of BladeMark - a local band popular among young music fans in Macao’s music circle.
 

In recent years, Pakeong determined to develop his personal painting style by integrating different materials, including paper, canvas, board and wall, with his typical black and white lines style that extend to infinity. Early this year, he was invited by AFA to conduct a five-day live painting at the ‘Art Beijing 2010 Contemporary Art Fair’ and received wide acclaim from the media and visitors. At the invitation of the Cultural Affairs Bureau of the MSAR, he painted live for several consecutive days in the Macao Pavilion at the 6th China (Shenzhen) International Cultural Industries Fair and the 3rd Cross-strait (Xiamen) Cultural Industry Fair in May and June this year, which attracted much attention, while his style was widely picked up by various journals.
 

In addition to the live painting Off the Wall by Pakeong, the forthcoming exhibition features various large-scale works previously accomplished in the ‘Art Beijing 2010’ Contemporary Art Fair, and fairs held in Shenzhen and Xiamen. The artist-in-residency show is open to the public from 1st to 20th July, and is followed by an exhibition opening at 5:00pm on Saturday 24th July. The exhibition will close on 12th September.
