The Hanart TZ Gallery opened in 1983. Owner and Curatorial director Johnson Chang wanted to introduce contemporary art from Mainland China, Taiwan, in fact anywhere Chinese artists live, to the Hong Kong public. Currently, the gallery is presenting an exhibition and forums to celebrate its 30th anniversary. The works are on display at the Hong Kong Arts Centre, at Hanart Square in Kwai Chung and in the main Hanart gallery in Central. They cover the history of modern art in China, from traditional ink and calligraphy, to political pop art and the Chinese avant garde.
The art collective The Black Store is made up of Master's graduates from Visual Culture Studies. Their aim, they say, is to provoke consideration of the valuation of contemporary art works, particularly when marketing gets involved. Their exhibition Hijack, which ends on Saturday February 8th, involves artists' such as Brainrental, Start From Zero, Tse Sai Pei, Sunny Wong, Ink'CHACHA, Harbour Runners, Jo26 and Fan Kai Chuen. But the group says it doesn't only want to stimulate our awareness of how everyday life and art are hijacked commercially. It also hopes to encourage the public to actually take part more in art.
Just last month, local artist Johnson Tsang completed a major solo show, Living Clay, at the Yingge Ceramics Museum in Taiwan. He's a ceramic artist and sculptor, whose work contains realistic images mixed with surreal transformations. Water pouring from a cup can become entwined faces. Flowing figures can arise out of solid shapes. Ceramics and stainless steel can become liquid. Since he took up sculpting full time in 1993, Johnson's works have been exhibited in Hong Kong, Taiwan, Korea, Spain and Switzerland and collected by local and overseas museums and collectors.
