Hong Kong Streets Rendered in Pixel Art | 像素藝術之中步入香港

Leave a comment

香港是個不斷演變的城市，有超過4000條街道，每一條街道都擁有獨特的名稱和結構。然而，香港景觀的獨特之美常被快速城市化環境所遺忘。小時候清晰的影像長大後變成模糊的記憶，鮮明的建築線條變成像素般虛幻。【香港街道所HKSC】用獨特且超現實的方法將街道風景記錄成了栩栩如生的像素圖。

Hong Kong is a city that is constantly evolving, consisting more than 4000 streets, with each being unique in its name and structure. However, the unique beauty of Hong Kong’s landscape is often forgotten or lost in the fast-paced urban environment. The once vivid imagery often becomes a blurry memory from the past. The distinctive structural lines fade away into pixelated images. Hong Kong Street Club has captured the essence of Hong Kong’s streets in a unique and surreal way, using pixel art to bring the city to life.

一種新藝術的誕生：畢加索的玻璃畫像 | PABLO PICASSO’S PAINTINGS IN GLASS

Leave a comment

1950年代中期，羅傑・馬萊伯・納瓦爾的工作室鑽研法國畫家尚・克羅蒂製作的燈箱，透過組合、層疊和黏貼彩色玻璃片，將畢加索的畫作轉化為玻璃畫，並配合光線投射，製作成燈箱，重新演繹大師的卓越作品。

In the mid-1950s, the workshops of Roger Malherbe-Navarre expanded on the light boxes of French painter Jean Crotti by layering pieces of glass into pictorial depictions (gemmail, French for ‘enamel gem’) of several of Picasso’s paintings.

香港摩登：一九五零至七零年代建築｜HONG KONG MODERN ARCHITECTURE OF THE 1950S-1970S

Leave a comment

在戰後的數十年間，許多從中國大陸移民或於海外學有所成的 #香港建築師，他們領會到如何以現代原則去處理房屋短缺、大規模建設及預算有限的問題。儘管經濟效益往往高於設計考量，但建築師們仍然以設計植根於他們所處的時期，以一種獨特且務實的方式反映出當下的氣候、社會價值觀、材料、技術和用途。

In the post-war decades, #HongKongArchitects, many of them having migrated from China or studied overseas, embraced modern principles when forced to face the problems of housing shortage, mass construction and limited budgets in the British colony. Although economic efficiencies often prevailed over design, their buildings were rooted in their time and place, reflecting the local climate, social values, materials, technique and use in an often unique and pragmatic fashion.

智海：從幻燈片中觀看舊香港 | CHIHOI: OLD HONG KONG ON PAINTINGS AND SLIDE IMAGES

Leave a comment

「聖誕快樂，並賀新禧」是藝術家暨漫畫家 #智海 在香港舉行的最新個展，展出近四十張油畫新作及以之製成的 #幻燈片 投影。作品概念從藝術家收藏的一系列舊幻燈片出發，藝術家把幻燈片投射於牆上的影像，直接繪於畫布上，呈現了六十至八十年代一幅幅熟悉的 #舊香港 印象。藝術家再把這些畫布上的二次創作製作成幻燈片並將之投影：時移世易，回憶數度轉移，凝固在原初的載體。

Visual artist #Chihoi ’s solo exhibition in Hong Kong ‘Merry Christmas and Happy New Year’ features around 40 new oil paintings and a #slideprojection of the same images. Taking his personal old slide collection as the point of departure, Chihoi paints the wall projection of the slide images directly on canvas. The reproduced images illustrate familiar impressions of #oldHongKong between the 1960s and 1980s. The artist then turns these reproductions on canvas into slides and projects them. As time passes, memories are transferred and translated, eventually encapsulated in their original medium.

迪嘉：你認識幾個雲朵上的人物？ | TIK KA: WHO ARE THE CHARACTERS ON THE CLOUDS?

Leave a comment

人生如雲，變幻莫測。個展《望着天一片……》是迪嘉2017年睽違五年後再次帶來全新親筆作品，以雲作靈感，透過創作20幅親筆原畫。過往擅中西融合、幽默色彩為主軸的他，來到一個期望破格、返璞歸素的階段，「嘗試篩走所有雜念，在變幻無常之中，擁抱自已核心的概念。」

Life is like a cloud, fickle and unpredictable. This solo exhibition “Constant as the Sky…” is a brand new collection of original paintings by Tik Ka after a five-year absence since 2017. Drawing inspiration from the clouds, the artist has created 20 original paintings. Throughout his works, he had been a master in incorporating Chinese and Western
culture in a comical manner, until an epiphany to return to the simplicity of the basics: “An attempt to filter out all distractions and embrace my own interpretation in the midst of fickleness.”
