'The Chinese Avant-Garde in Paris' at Alisan Fine Arts, Central, Hong Kong on 22 May–15 Aug 2026

Alisan Fine Arts in Central, Hong Kong, presents 'The Chinese Avant-Garde in Paris' from 22 May to 15 Aug 2026 as part of its 45th anniversary 'Then and Now' programme. The exhibition features works by Zao Wou-ki, Chu Teh-chun, T’ang Haywen, and Walasse Ting—francophone Chinese diaspora masters who blended Chinese cultural roots with post-war Parisian modernism. Highlights include previously unseen ink works by Chu Teh-chun from the 1980s and 1990s, a rare black-and-white canvas by Walasse Ting from 1959, and a major 1970s canvas by Zao Wou-ki. The show anchors the 'Then' component of the programme, with a parallel 'Now' exhibition at Alisan Atelier, both part of the French May Arts Festival Associated Projects.
