On 9 November 2013, Asia Art Archive and Hong Kong Museum of Art jointly present a day of panel discussions that mark the soft launch of Hong Kong Art History Research Pilot Project, the beginning of a long-term endeavour to develop a publicly available resource platform to support art historical research. It also aims to develop a framework for building a richer contextual picture of Hong Kong’s art ecology in the 1960s and 70s. In addition to conducting a new series of professionally documented interviews that include multiple voices and perspectives, this pilot project makes available a selection of materials from Hong Kong Museum of Art’s archive, Asia Art Archive’s collection, and valuable personal collections.

This panel looks at the various endeavours to research art in Hong Kong undertaken by existing and previous initiatives on which the current Pilot Project is anchored.

Speakers:
Victor LAI Ming-hoi, Associate Professor of Academy of Visual Arts, Hong Kong Baptist University
Sophia LAW Suk-mun, Associate Professor of Department of Visual Studies, Lingnan University
Jack LEE Sai-chong, Assistant Professor of Academy of Visual Arts, Hong Kong Baptist University and Co-founder and Vice Chairman of the Hong Kong Art History Research Society
Moderator:
