For several decades now, Chinese consumers have been a major force behind the rise in sales of luxury goods. In fashion in particular, China’s demand for luxury items has contributed considerably to the success of global brands. But high-end luxury goods were unheard of before the nation's economic reforms and opening up.
It was in 1978 that French fashion designer Pierre Cardin's fashion brand entered China. One person key to making that happen was Madame Song.
On show at Ben Brown Fine Arts, “The Floating World” is a group exhibition of work by five Hong Kong artists, Cheng Ting Ting, Vivian Ho, Li Ning, Nicole Wong and Yan Wai Yin. Curated by Andre Chan, the exhibition is inspired by the Japanese art of “ukiyo-e” or "pictures of the floating world", the popular art form that depicted
the everyday life of the flourishing Edo period from the 17th to 19th centuries.
Last Christmas, percussionist Lauren Yuen came to the studio with Alvin Chan to play us a contemporary vibraphone and marimba duet by composer Tim Collins.
Today, she’s here again, this time with more members of her percussion group M.A.R.B.L.E.S as well as other jazz musicians, to tell us about an upcoming concert that combines percussion music and jazz.
