For Pang Jiun, art ran in the family. Both his parents were painters. His father Pang Xunqin had studied oil painting in France, while his mother Qiu Ti studied in Japan. Upon returning to China, in 1932, Pang’s father and his fellow artist Ni Yide formed the short-lived artists' collective, the “Storm Society” to promote modernism and innovation in the Chinese painting scene. Qiu Ti later became a member. Although he's now in his late 80s, Pang Jiun still reflects the “Storm Society spirit” of his parents' generation in his works.

The act and process of “looking at paintings” is the curatorial theme of “Solo. Exhibition. Twice II: Of Seeing” at the Blindspot Gallery. On show side by side are recent works by Yeung Tong-lung and works by Sze Yuen from the past decade. This is their second joint exhibition, and your opportunity to see Yeung’s large-scale and brightly coloured oil paintings of everyday Hong Kong lives alongside the more muted colours of Sze Yuen’s scroll-like charcoal works and oil paintings.

Composer Doming Lam has been described as “The Father of New Music in Hong Kong” for his contribution to modernising Chinese music.
Trained as a violinist, Lam was born in Macau in 1926 and moved to Hong Kong in 1947 where he helped found the Sino-British Orchestra. That was to become the Hong Kong Philharmonic Orchestra in 1957. Lam was also one of the founders of the Composers and Authors Society of Hong Kong (CASH), the Hong Kong Composers Guild and the Asian Composers League. On 11th January this year, Lam died at the age of 96. "Of Roots and Ways: A Tribute to Maestro Doming Lam”, presented by The University of Hong Kong’s MUSE on 20th of this month, is a concert that features five chamber works by the composer.
