Overview
The Hong Kong Museum of Art is deeply honoured to receive a generous donation of 123 sets of precious artworks from the family of Hong Kong calligraphist Jat See-yeu (1935 – 2009), marking the largest single donation of calligraphy works by an individual Hong Kong artist that the museum has ever received. This substantial contribution demonstrates their generous spirit and a steadfast commitment to the public good.
85 sets of Chinese calligraphy and paintings from the donation are exhibited in “Boundless Universe: Calligraphy by Jat See-yeu”. This exhibition will guide audiences into the world of Jat See-yeu’s calligraphy from four perspectives, allowing them to experience his passion for preserving tradition, his open-minded approach to life, and his innovative pursuits in the face of changing times.
The exhibition is also one of the activities in the Chinese Culture Promotion Series. The LCSD has long been promoting Chinese history and culture through organising an array of programmes and activities to enable the public to learn more about the broad and profound Chinese culture.
