作為亞洲首屈一指的現代和當代水墨書畫私人收藏，香港梅潔樓藏畫隆重呈現《周綠雲風采再遇 – 梅潔樓藏畫》，重點包括香港女性水墨畫家周綠雲一幅多年未有公開展出的早期巨型作品。
The M K Lau Collection, one of Asia’s finest private collections of modern and contemporary ink, is pleased to present Irene Chou Rediscovered: Paintings from the M K Lau Collection, a small-scale exhibition that brings awareness, not only to an early Chou masterpiece that has been hidden from public view for decades, but also the scope of the artist’s talent.
是次展覽將會慶祝周綠雲的20年創作生涯，從藝術家獨特的創作視角出發，探討其個性、興趣和信念。展覽將於在都爹利會館展出，期間將會舉行相關講座。
The exhibition celebrates Chou’s creative journey over a twenty-year period and offers unique insights into the artist’s personality, interests and convictions. Open at Duddell’s, with an accompanying talks programme.
周氏別具前瞻性的創作思維和其作品，堪稱香港藝術史上的經典，時至今日依然歷久不衰，雖然是水墨作品，但風格非常現代前衛。藝術家作爲70年代女性，獨立自主的性格以及對藝術事業的熱誠追求，在當時婚後女性要相夫教子思想的時代可謂非常突破。
Chou’s unique forward-looking creative thinking and works can be regarded as a classic in the history of Hong Kong art. Even today, although her works are ink works, her style is very modern and avant-garde. As a female in the 1970s, the artist’s independent personality and sincere pursuit of art career made a breakthrough in the era when the female wanted to take care of her husband and raise children after marriage.
是次展覽將周氏多樣化的創作風格與技巧以作品《無題》為重點呈現觀眾眼前。《無題》是自 1971 年以後首次再度重現大眾眼前，作品以另一角度去認識這位藝術家的創作歷程，了解其充份利用節奏與張力形象化情感和精神信念的藝術風格。同時展出的作品《做個快樂老實人》及《舞姿》，當中的潑墨作畫手法，展現周氏突破創作限制和引用生命力為靈感的作品。
The sobriety and gravitas of Untitled is juxtaposed in the exhibition with Chou’s diverse stylistic and technical approaches. Untitled, shown to the public for the first time in decades, allows a new perspective on how the artist developed and matured her stylistic expression of texture, rhythm and tension to visualise human emotions and spiritual convictions – at once individual and Universal. Her irrepressible desire to remove the limitations of imagination and celebrate the vitality and energy of life is also encapsulated in To be A Happy and Honest Person and Heavenly Dance.
