Overview
*Sentient Pond will be temporarily closed from 2024.09.05 to 2024.09.12 and will be open to public on 2024.09.13. Falling Tears will remain open.
Hong Kong artist Chris Cheung and his creative team XCEED are invited to create two sets of site-specific art installations Falling Tears and Sentient Pond using emerging technology. Inspired by the paintings of Wu Guanzhong, a 20th century art master, these art installations offer fresh perspectives on the mesmerising allure of his classic works. They are on display alongside the Thematic Exhibition Series: “Wu Guanzhong: Between Black and White”, guiding the audience to discover the secrets behind the unconventional creations of Wu with a contemporary mindset.
The artworks are made possible by “Wu Guanzhong Art Sponsorship: Cross-disciplinary Series”. The Sponsorship is dedicated to promoting the art of Wu Guanzhong and related modern Chinese art. Through a diversity of programmes, the Museum endeavours to carry forward the master’s innovative spirit by fostering dialogues across time and space with Wu’s art.
