Tai Po Art Centre, Yukiko Morimot & studio performance: pianist Angela Cheng

2019-11-13
The Hong Kong Arts Development Council implemented the ADC Arts Space Scheme in 2014 to help address the problems of the lack of space for artists in Hong Kong. Under the scheme, three venues have been opened for a while, one in Aberdeen five years ago, and two in Kwun Tong last year. In late September, the scheme added a new space, this one in Tai Po, through repurposing a former secondary school.

Japanese printmaker, Yukiko Morimoto mixes copperplate printmaking with mixed-media techniques such as photography, fabri transfer printing, pencil drawing and acrylic painting in her work. On show at the Art Projects Gallery until the end of the month, “Longing for Innocence” features a collection of images of children wearing masks of real and imaginary creatures.

The Hong Kong Generation Next Arts annual music festival got under way last week. Now in its sixth year, the three-week long festival this year focuses on celebrating “great women artists of the world”. One of the highlights is a tribute to composer and pianist Clara Schumann. This year – September 13th to be precise - is the 200th anniversary of her birth. Canadian pianist Angela Cheng opened the festival with the Philharmonia APA, and she’s here to tell us just what made Clara Schumann such a musical pioneer.
