Kan Tai Keung: Rediscovering the Origin at Touch Gallery


  • Hong Kong Hong Kong (map)

In December 2022, Touch Gallery hosted my solo exhibition, showcasing the mental images I have continually explored since 1966. Apart from a few practices works from the 1960s, most are ink paintings in various artistic styles that I started from 1970. This presented the path of my learning in art and the mind of the development of new ink creations.

In the new century, I have been developing text landscape painting for more than 20 years, integrating calligraphy with the landscape into a unique style. In 2018, I returned to the simplest geometric compositions for landscapes, “proudly reciting and singing with pines and quiet flowers,” seeking a tranquil state of mind amidst the turmoil of the world.

After turning eighty, I rediscovered my original intention, freely cultivating it that I have tended for 50 years. This May, I will share my achievements with everyone at my solo exhibition in Touch Gallery.

Opening: 2024.05.10 Friday 17:30 - 19:30
