   
Following on the success of the two large-scale
exhibitions, namely “Legacy and
Creations – Ink Art vs Ink Art” and “Legacy and Creations – Art vs Art” held
in Shanghai to coincide with “Expo 2010
Shanghai”, the Hong Kong Museum
of Art takes the pleasure to share the
creative works by local artists in these two
exhibitions with the audience in Hong
Kong.
The exhibitions feature ink art and cross-media
works covering sculpture, painting,
ceramic, installation and video. The “Ink vs
Ink” exhibition is both a retrospective and
prospective overview of the ink painting
tradition in Hong Kong, revealing the
development of new ink painting and
contemporary calligraphy in Hong Kong
as a metropolis where East meets West.
It also celebrates the re-vitalization of the
ink tradition and its evolution into a major
force in global contemporary art through
new techniques and approaches. The “Art
vs Art” exhibition lays out the impact of a
global culture on contemporary art from
a latitudinal perspective. The participating
artists who traverse freely among various
realms of creations explore different
materials and symbols, resulting in new
interpretations and interplay of Hong
Kong contemporary art.
