With the sponsorship of the GS Charity Foundation, the Art Museum presented the “Ballads of Ink from Canton” series from September to October 2021. “Ballads of Ink from Canton” is a series of four traditional Cantonese narrative song performances inspired by the exhibition “Artistic Confluence in Guangdong: Selected Painting and Calligraphy from Ming to Mid-Qing China (Phase II: Qing Dynasty)”. Jointly presented by Dr. Peggy Ho (Research Associate of Art Museum, CUHK and curator of “Artistic Confluence in Guangdong”) and The Gong Strikes One, the performances invited viewers to travel back in time and enjoy a visual and aural feast of Canton arts and culture in the mid-Qing dynasty. The video series attracted 5,490 views.
