　　相遇可誉之人，相遇难求风景，相遇美好经验，相遇真实的自己。

　　英格 (Inga Aru) 和戈漠 (Wolfgang Gramm) 将艺术作为表达和探索这些美好与体验的媒介，而多年来 NordArt 在放大这些邂逅与美好方面所发挥了作用，充分体现了艺术对艺术家及其受众所产生的深远影响。各种形式的艺术是超越语言和文化障碍的交流、表达和联系的手段。

　　此次展出了英格 (Inga Aru) 的 5 件雕塑作品，8 件油画作品，戈漠 (Wolfgang Gramm) 的 19 件油画作品。英格的艺术具有一定的女性特征，也正是这种艺术的原创性和真实性才使得她的作品更加感人和引人瞩目，唤起自我审视的声音和身份认同。戈漠的作品有很强的叙事性、人文性和浪漫主义情怀。他的绘画作品常用抽象的语言，亮丽的颜色，传递出神秘但又响亮灿烂的思想世界。

　　To encounter honorable individuals, discover rare and beautiful landscapes, have positive experiences, and gain clarity about oneself.

　　Inga Aru and Wolfgang Gramm's use of art as a medium to express and explore desires and experiences, and NordArt's role in magnifying these encounters and beauties over the years, exemplify the profound impact that art can have on both artists and their audiences. Art, in its various forms, serves as a means of communication, expression, and connection that transcends language and cultural barriers.

　　The exhibition featured five sculptures by Inga Aru, eight oil paintings, and 19 oil paintings by Wolfgang Gramm. Aru´s art is somewhat feminine. it is the originality and authenticity of this art that makes her work all the more touching and compelling, evoking a voice of self-examination and identity. Gramm’s works have a strong sense of narrative, humanity and romanticism. His paintings often use abstract language and bright colors to convey a mysterious but loud and brilliant world of ideas.

　　渡渡之名的灵感来自三百多年前毛里求斯岛上因人类活动而灭绝的渡渡鸟。刘若望希望以此纪念那些在人类过度侵入和捕杀下灭绝的物种，并唤起人们对自然环境保护的深层关怀。以表现生态文明为核心、反思人与自然关系的“生态艺术”也成为刘若望坚持的艺术理念。

Liu Ruowang named the art museum “Dodo” with the hope of remembering all extinct species because of human invasion and mass killings and raising awareness to protect nature.

　　“NordArt” 在丰富个体文化的不同视角下茁壮成长，但也清楚地表明，无论来自何方，人类其实有着很多共同的希望和梦想。“NordArt” 除常规展览框架外，还会推出主宾国馆项目及不同主题的特别展览项目。这些项目将以某一国家特有文化特质或者某一概念为核心，并深入全面地展示这一核心内容。这些特别项目的常规合作伙伴是各国大使馆、文化机构，并由合作伙伴机构推荐国际联合策展人协作完成。

　　The centrepiece of this cultural enterprise is NordArt, taking place annually during the summer months since 1999. The curators of NordArt are Wolfgang Gramm and Inga Aru. In addition to the foundry halls with 22,000 square metres of exhibition space, the premises include a sweeping 80,000 square metre sculpture park and the picturesque ACO Wagenremise. Every year, around 3000 artists from all over the world apply to participate in this spectacular endeavour.

　　NordArt thrives on the kaleidoscope of perspectives from contrasting cultures but reveals that many hopes and dreams are shared equally by North, East, South and West. With a view of providing deep insight, NordArt highlights the art scene of one specific country each year and presents various special projects in cooperation with embassies, cultural institutions and curators from many different countries.
