TSANG Kin-Wah: T  REE O  GO  D EVIL at gdm

gdm Hong Kong is pleased to present ”TSANG Kin-Wah: T  REE O  GO  D EVIL,“ the artist’s first solo exhibition with the gallery. ”T  REE O  GO  D EVIL“ is an immersive experience that probes at the fragile core of morality.

The title of the exhibition, “T REE O GO D EVIL,” invokes the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil. In the Judeo-Christian tradition, the story of Adam and Eve's premature consumption of the fruit from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil represents a pivotal moment of moral awakening. By acquiring this forbidden knowledge, they ushered in an awareness of the duality of good and evil, a concept that would come to be seen as the root of sin. The gallery space is transformed to imitate the Garden of Eden, the site of Golgotha, and the scene depicted in Francisco Goya's haunting “Disasters of War” print series, Grande hazaña! Con muertos! (A Heroic Feat! With Dead Men!).

Through rich spatial and visual elements, ”T  REE O  GO  D EVIL“  explores moral ambiguity, human brutality, and the instability of ideas and values.

Opening reception: 19 March (Wed) 5-7pm

Gallery address: 11 Duddell Street, Central

Crossing at gdm Hong Kong (Galerie du Monde)

gdm Hong Kong is delighted to present Crossing, a group exhibition curated by independent curator Chris Wan, opening on January 9 2025. Featuring new works by nine artists—Au Wah Yan, Sushan Chan, Lilin, Law Yuk Mui, Sharon Lee, Joseph Leung, Andrew Luk, Ivy Ma, and Michelle Tam—the exhibition explores the emotional intersections of Hong Kong’s history through diverse perspectives, highlighting the deep connections between individuals and their times.

Building on the curator’s research into Chinese diasporic experiences, Crossing captures a moment in Hong Kong’s present. History’s ripples unfold within everyday life, as people’s displacement, connections, and separations mirror the uncertainty of crossing uncharted waters. This challenging journey also holds immense potential for self-creation and renewal.

 The participating artists, from Hong Kong and beyond, respond to pivotal moments in their personal lives through their work, reflecting on the pressing question: “How do we navigate this turbulent time?” The artworks blend imaginative and conceptual ideas with sincere and direct expressions, delineating a heartfelt letter to the city of Hong Kong.

Opening reception: 9 January (Thu) 5-7pm

Gallery address: 108 Ruttonjee Centre, 11 Duddell Street, Central
