| Event: Art Museum “The Bei Shan Tang Legacy: Chinese Painting” |
Exhibition Period: From 7 May 2021 to 25 July 2021
Dating back millennia, Chinese painting is astoundingly beautiful and culturally profound. The Art Museum of The Chinese University of Hong Kong collaborated with the Department of Fine Arts of CUHK and curated the exhibition “The Bei Shan Tang Legacy: Chinese Painting” in the autumn of 2019. The exhibition was well-received at the time. Responding to requests from academia and the public, the Art Museum re-ran the exhibition to showcase the artistic achievements in painting from the Southern Song to the Qing dynasties with 120 exhibits.
The exhibits are presented in ten sections, namely Landscapes of the Mind, Landscapes from Nature, Landscapes after the Past, Birds-and-Flowers and Miscellaneous Subjects, Daoist and Buddhist Realms, Portraits beyond Appearances, Fair Ladies, Yangzhou Painting, Guangdong Painting, and Women Painters, in the hope of offering visitors a road map for sampling the intriguingly complex and enduringly captivating domains of Chinese painting. Strolling through the exhibition galleries, visitors may feel like travelling back in time and discovering different facets of the past. |

| News: Art Museum “Artistic Confluence in Guangdong: Selected Painting and Calligraphy from Ming to Mid-Qing China” (Collection of the Art Museum, CUHK) (Phase II: Qing Dynasty) |
Exhibition Period: From 27 August 2021 to 19 December 2021
The exhibition, showcasing more than 70 exhibits, sheds light on the influential poets, painters, and calligraphers, as well as the culture of art collecting and gathering in Guangdong during the Qing dynasty. Artworks of renowned artists such as Li Jian, Xie Lansheng, Su Liupeng, and Su Renshan are featured in the exhibition. Following, deviating, and rethinking tradition, Lingnan artists were true to themselves in their works of art. This is one of the distinctive aesthetic qualities found in Guangdong painting and calligraphy.
Apart from a significantly growing number of talented Guangdong artists, more and more collectors appeared during the Qing dynasty. In the golden years of Guangdong’s culture and economy from 1686 to 1842, arts, collecting, and patronage were closely intertwined. Ye Menglong’s Fengman Lou, Wu Rongguang’s Yunqing Guan and Pan Shicheng’s Haishan Xianguan were representatives of Guangdong painting and calligraphy collections during the time, supporting the development of culture, education, and arts in Guangdong. Their treasures have been well preserved and are being displayed in this exhibition. |

| News: Art Museum “Enchanting Expeditions: Chinese Trade Porcelains across the Globe” |
Exhibition Period: From 25 September 2021 to 24 April 2022
At the height of the Age of Discovery in the 16th century, Europeans flocked to the Orient, surmounting geographic barriers, and plunging the Ming Empire into the globalization matrix. The great variety of produce and finely crafted objects from Ming China, for daily use or decoration, quickly became sought-after international commodities in a growing world market and a driving force for Europeans to expand their trade in the Orient. The most highly prized Chinese goods then were silk, porcelains, lacquerwares, and tea.
Very much a specialty of the Ming, porcelain took the Europeans by storm as soon as it arrived on the continent. Translucent and shiny, light, and durable against wear and erosion, the exotic pieces with a mysterious oriental style were zealously coveted by royalty, aristocrats, and even religious leaders. To make the most of the drastically expanding global market, merchants from various countries became actively involved in the design, manufacture, shipment, and sale of Chinese porcelain, resulting in diversification of production centres as well as an amazing array of types and decorations for this vibrant Chinaware. The Chinese trade porcelain thus entered its golden age and caused marvellous ebb and flow in the globalised commercial world.
This exhibition provides an overview of the Sino-European maritime trade in porcelain during the Ming and Qing dynasties. It features over 400 pieces (sets) of trade porcelains and related objects from Art Museum, CUHK, and other public and private collections. Integrating object display with textual records as well as historical images, we aim to reconstruct the design, manufacture, transport, and sale processes of Chinese export porcelain and their use and impact in overseas markets. We invite visitors to travel with us back in time and across the globe to see how Ming and Qing porcelain came to dominate the international market and how it profoundly impacted the porcelain industry of the world. The exhibition is organised in six sections: Encountering Oriental Wonders, Thriving Country of China, Manufacture and Transport of Porcelain, Braving the Ocean Waves, International Fashions, and Profound Impact of Chinaware. |

| Event: Art Museum “Oracle Bones Collection from CUHK” (Virtual Exhibition) |
Exhibition Period: From 15 September 2021 to 31 August 2022
Link to the virtual exhibition: Click Here
The Shang-dynasty inscribed oracle bones were found at Yinxu, Henan province. Its purpose and function shed significant light on the origin of Chinese culture, disclosing major concerns of the time. Shang oracle-bone script is the earliest known form of systematic Chinese writing which is a crucial source for understanding the development of Chinese characters as well as the history of the Shang dynasty.
The Chinese University of Hong Kong is the largest repository of oracle bones in Hong Kong, including forty-four oracle bones donated by Mr Deng Erya's family to United College and twenty-seven by Mr Lee Yim to the Art Museum. On the occasion of the United College's sixtieth anniversary and the Golden Jubilee of the Institute of Chinese Studies (of which the Art Museum is an integral part), the exhibition “A Legacy of Elegance” is jointly presented by United College, the CUHK Library, and the Art Museum as a celebration event. The exhibition features the oracle bones from the CUHK Collection, the oracle-bone and bronze scripts from the Art Museum Collection, and publications on oracle-bones studies from the CUHK Library Collection. Exhibits include calligraphic works and monographs by well-known scholars such as Luo Zhenyu, Deng Erya, Tung Tso-pin, Rong Geng, Shang Chengzuo, Feng Kanghou, Lee Yim, and Jao Tsung-I. The specialist catalogue A Legacy of Elegance: Oracle Bones Collection from The Chinese University of Hong Kong, edited by Dr. Li Zong-kun of Institute of History and Philology, Academia Sinica, Taipei, is intended for both experts and uninitiated yet educated readers. The two essays written by Dr. Ho Pik Ki, Peggy (Art Museum, CUHK) reveal the University’s close relationship with and achievement of oracle-bones studies and art.
To celebrate the Golden Jubilee of the Art Museum in 2021, A Legacy of Elegance was made into a virtual exhibition, in which visitors can travel back in time and reflect on the origin and development of Chinese culture.

University Museum Research．Curation．Educational Exploration: An Example of the Ancient Chinese Gold Working Techniques Project
Speaker: Prof. Xu Xiaodong (Associate Director of Art Museum, Programme Director of RPCAA, CUHK)
University museums are unique in the entire museum system. There are common difficulties such as limited space, few collections, insufficient staff, and lack of funding. The Art Museum of the Chinese University of Hong Kong has paid special attention in recent years to make use of limited resources to improve the situation and integrate its own characteristics and advantages to give full play to the unique role of university museums; and to cooperate with other institutions to expand its influence and social service functions.
The lecture will take the Ancient Chinese Gold Working Techniques Project as an example to introduce how an exhibition can attract social funding in order to conduct research, and then promote multi-disciplinary/multi-institution cooperation, publish academic works, launch new exhibitions, cultivate students with relevant knowledge, and collect related cultural relics from donors. Thus a virtuous cycle of exhibition, research, learning, and collection can be formed. |
