Photographer Chucky Li, Tsuguharu Foujita@Chatham Maison & in the studio: Andy Schaub

2024-01-31
Swiss singer-songwriter Andy Schaub says he’s been fascinated by Asian culture since he was a child and interested in Chinese pop music for at least a decade. That passion led him to travel thousands of miles from his village home near Basel in Switzerland to live and work in Hong Kong. He’ll be here later to tell us more. Also travelling thousands of miles from his homeland was Chucky Li’s grandfather Yu Changde who was born in Indonesia in 1937 but taken to China by his Chinese stepfather a decade later. The far-reaching journey of her grandfather’s life has inspired Li to make a photographic pilgrimage of her own to reconnect with her family history.

In Chatham Maison, a Grade II listed building halfway up The Peak, is an art space called the Art Research and Exchange Centre of Wei Gallery. Currently showing here is “A Line that Never Ends”, an exhibition focusing on the life and work of Léonard Tsuguharu Foujita.
