Booked@Tai Kwun, Chow Chun-fai & Stephen Wong@Tang & in the studio: pianist Rachel Cheung

2023-05-13
Organised by Tai Kwun Contemporary, Booked is a fair dedicated to art books - not just books about art, but books as works of art in themselves. It showcases artists, creative practitioners and publishers who use books and Zines as a medium of artistic expression. This year’s edition also introduced the concept of “Sounds Like Print”.

On show at Tang Contemporary Art, “A Mirage of a Shining City” features the works of two artists: Stephen Wong & Chow Chun-fai. The two met and became friends while studying at the Department of Fine Arts at the Chinese University of Hong Kong. Both also live in Fotan. The exhibition highlights their contrasting yet complementary approaches to light and shadow and to urban and rural landscapes. Wong specialises in rural scenes, while Chow’s works focus on Hong Kong’s nocturnal cityscape.
The exhibition reflects not only the strong local flavour of their works, but also their long-standing friendship and collaboration.

Its been a busy time for pianist Rachel Cheung. Apart from her local solo recitals, chamber music concerts, and performances at this year’s Hong Kong Arts Festival, Rachel has also been travelling to Berlin to record her debut classical album "Reflections", an extended album released on two Super Audio CDs.
