Art in Hong Kong: Enid Tsui Book Talk
This event takes place in-person in the Headley Lecture Theatre and online via Zoom
Booking is essential. £8 in person & online
In this talk Enid explores the themes of her new book, Art in Hong Kong: Portrait of a City in Flux.
She will discuss Hong Kong's M+ museum and other venues that have to tread a tightrope between celebrating a distinct and vibrant culture based on different influences and abiding by the new national security regime.
Contemporary artist Cheung Yee, whose work is on display at the Ashmolean in a special exhibition open until September 7, appears in the book as a leading figure of innovation in the Hong Kong art scene, especially during the 1960s when the city established its own identity as an artistic centre.
