Hi there, and welcome to the first edition of The Works in 2024. With the beginning of the new year, we’re featuring a couple of art organisations that have anniversaries to celebrate. One of them is the Hong Kong Composers’ Guild. On January 12th, the guild is presenting the second of three concerts in a festival to celebrate musical creativity. One group taking part is the Hong Kong Gaudeamus Dunhuang Ensemble, members of which will be here later to tell us more. The Jockey Club Creative Arts Centre is also celebrating an anniversary, its 15th, and it’s doing so by mounting an exhibition featuring works by many of the artists who work in its studios.
WKM Gallery opened in Wong Chuk Hang in November. It’s named after its founder William Kayne Mukai who has both Japanese and French roots and wants the gallery to bring together a range of cultures. The 2,600 square foot space is divided into four zones based on the Japanese design concept of “ma”, which roughly translates to “negative space”. The idea is to create a sense of a “gap” or “pause” in which to create new meaning. The inaugural exhibition, “Metamorphosis: Japan’s Evolving Society” features works by 12 contemporary Japanese artists in a variety of media including photography, painting, sculpture, and embroidery.
