All About Hong Kong
by AO Vertical
Location: AO Vertical
Artist(s): GROUP SHOW
Date: 26 Jul - 9 Sep 2013

All About Hong Kong’ is a group exhibition by local and international artists inspired on Hong Kong in the media of photography. Ten artists explore different aspects about our city; its architecture, its vernacular elements, its past, its people and its dark side…

Ho Fan's nostalgic black-and-white images of old Hong Kong are an eternal classic. Michael Wolf outsider’s point of view on Hong Kong’s back alleys offers an interesting contrast to Kwan Kam Cheong’s darker and emotionally laden insider's perspective. Almond Chu reflects on the collective behavior of our citizens; while Romain looks at Hong Kong from below with an innovative and impressive angle. Marcel's mirrored urban landscape explores contradictions between decay and renewal. Andreas explores the city’s most important feature; its waters. While lastly Hui Kam Yat is creative with the media itself; the camera; Yat will showcase his handmade wooden pinhole camera and the photographic memories he captured with it. Alfred Ko’s works are particularly context-sensitive and history-conscious; whereas Chun Wai highlights the relaxing and festive atmosphere of Rugby Seven.

Featured artists: Ho Fan, Michael Wolf, Kwan Kam Cheong, Almond Chu, Romain Jacquet-Lagreze, Andreas Muller-Pohle, Marcel Heijnen, Hui Kam Yat, Alfred Ko and Chun Wai
