Other Art Collections
- 康雁屏現代水墨 Brenda Hong’s Exhibition
[2014/08/19—2014/09/30] 「醉荷塘—康雁屏現代水墨」展覽展出了康雁屏女士以「醉荷塘」為主題的水墨畫作品。康女士以多種彩墨及柔和的筆觸繪出荷塘的不同景致,表現出她對香港社會的情感。由於她用在創作上的畫紙均以水墨多重染色,故此畫作的色彩濃厚,層次豐富。 康女士為本港傑出的藝術家,在現代水墨、攝影、花藝等範疇均有涉獵。她亦是本校校友,於是次畫展致送了一幅題為「醉荷塘.暉」的作品予母校,其畫作充分滲透出母校對學生無微不至的呵護,同時亦充分表現出她對母校的情感。 康女士相信「藝術源於生活」,其創作靈感多來自日常生活及旅行的所見所聞。她希望藉著是次畫展向母校的學弟妹分享她的創作,並期望是次畫展為一個介入點,讓現代水墨藝術滲入母校中。此外,她亦一直致力向大眾推廣現代水墨畫,希望有更多人欣賞此源於香港的藝術。 - 戴桂冠書法選 Mr. Day Kwei Kwan's Calligraphy
