抜萃書室 The Diocesan Home and Orphanage
Eastern Street(東邊街)
4年間ハワイで勉強した後、孫文氏は、1883年初期にアメリカ会衆派教会により設立されたオアフ・カレッジに入学し、半年後に故郷中山市に戻りました。それから彼は1883年末に香港に戻ってきました。そこで彼は抜萃書室(現在の抜萃男書室:Diocesan Boys’ School)に参加しました。それは1884年4月に中央書院に移行する前に聖公会により設立されました。

その時代、政治情勢、都市風景やランドマーク全てが変化しています。学校は別のものとなりました。香港の学生たちは抜萃書室で学ぶ孫文氏の歴史をしっているのでしょうか?
ゆがめられた黒釉は史料の厚い層をほのめかします。そのような史料は永遠の真理なのでしょうか? 格子の都市空間では、正しい描写とはなんなのでしょうか? 翡翠色として明るい、または泥で覆われているのでしょうか?
Tang Kwok Hin
Tang Kwok-hin, mixed media artist, independent curator and writer, was born in 1983 and raised in Hong Kong. He received his Master of Fine Arts from the Chinese University of Hong Kong in 2008 and Bachelor of Arts (major in Fine Arts) in 2006. Tang starts the artistic path from continuous queries towards his native background; soon he has developed exploration towards origins of existence and intimate aesthetics, inseparably connecting to the course and experiences of his life. These concerns are reflected in his works. He blurs boundaries between art and living by integrating creation with conflicts of human kinds which reveals intrinsic values and rhythm of senses. He often appropriates and reconstructs daily and personal contexts to narrate hidden stories in life, dealing with growth, inheritance, freedom, capitalism, consumerism, nature, politics, norms, etc., to express concerns towards humans and surroundings. He previously participated in la Biennale di Venezia: 15th International Architecture Exhibition at Hong Kong Pavilion, 15th WRO Media Art Biennale, Hong Kong Contemporary Biennial Award 2009, etc.; also exhibited in Ice Palace, Miami, U.S.A.; Osthaus Museum, Hagen, Germany; Centre for Chinese Contemporary Art, Manchester, UK; 4A Centre for Contemporary Asian Art, Sydney, Australia; Museum Bärengasse, Switzerland; Esplanade, Singapore; Singapore Art Museum; Guangdong Times Museum, China; Vargas Museum, Manila, Philippines; Busan Cinema Center, South Korea; Hong Kong Museum of Art; Taipei Museum of Contemporary Art; Kuandu Museum, Taipei, Taiwan, etc. He was awarded the first prize at Hong Kong Contemporary Art Biennial 2009; selected by Sovereign Asian Art Prize 2010, 2011 and 2014; awarded a Young Artist Award by Hong Kong Arts Development Awards 2010; granted by Asian Cultural Council in 2013.
