There’s good news for jazz fans as the Freespace Jazz Fest returns at the end of this month. The five-day festival features a veritable cornucopia of activities on five stages across the West Kowloon Cultural District. One highlight in the new Wonderland venue is two days of outdoor jazz performances that feature 12 groups of musicians. Pianist Daniel Chu will be on the show to talk about his participation with his Supergroup. Another festival that has just returned is the Movement Festival. The five-day festival, which ran through last month, included dance, film, music, literature, and family-friendly programmes. Many of the performances were site-specific.

Now known primarily for his graphic design, Kazumasa Nagai initially studied sculpture at the National University of Arts in Tokyo. In 1951 though, he had to withdraw due to health problems. Later that year he became a graphic designer in charge of advertising in a textile company. On show at K11 Musea, and presented by Gallery 27, are 100 of his posters created since the late 1950s. The show’s divided into four chapters, tracing his work from his geometric abstract forms in the 1950s - 60s, through his experimentation with photo collage in the 1970s, and up to the figurative illustrations that he still creates today.
