An inspiring two-part event series, featuring the vibrant world of contemporary art through engaging explorations and dialogues, exclusive for the HKU community, presented by Class of 2025 Connectors
Last week, we had the privilege of hosting an inspiring two-part event series, featuring the vibrant world of contemporary art, curated especially for our HKU community. A heartfelt thank you to our HKU Class Connector, Anqi Li 李安琪 (PhD Candidate), for initiating this enriching experience!
A Bespoke Art Tour | ‘Aura Within’ at Hauser & Wirth HK
Members of the HKU community enjoyed an intimate walkthrough of the group exhibition ‘Aura Within’, curated by Anqi herself. The curator-guided tour offered a deep dive into the diverse artistic practices and artworks, sparking thought-provoking conversations and fresh perspectives.
Fireside Chat with Johnson Chang and Anqi Li
Building on the exhibition tour, Anqi was joined by Johnson Chang 張頌仁 , a trailblazer in Chinese and Asian contemporary art, for a fireside chat on campus. The conversation reflected on their experiences in organising exhibitions and engaging with artists in Hong Kong and beyond. Johnson shared his decades-long collaborations and unique insights into working with iconic artists such as Luis Chan and Yeh Shih-Chiang.
We are grateful to everyone who joined us for this unforgettable exploration of art, creativity, and dialogue. A special thanks to Anqi and Johnson for the engaging conversations that inspired our alumni and student art enthusiasts, and to HKU Foundation for sponsoring the venue.
