The Outstanding Student Artist Award of Hong Kong (OSA Award) is a biennially event established in 2015 by a diverse group of art lovers from different professions. It aims to explore individual creativity and recognise the potential of School Art in secondary schools by giving recognition to outgoing artistic works. To enhance credibility of the award, the jury panel of the OSA Award consists of university educators and art professionals from various disciplines. In 2015, 2017 and 2019, the jury panel had selected 51 outstanding student artists, and sponsored some of the awardees to visit the 56th,57th and 58th “Venice Biennales”. This year, we arrange another occasion for the student artists to showcase their development during the years and share their inspiration after visiting the Venice Biennale.

This fine oil painting exhibition and sale will partly benefit a charitable association.

Cloud formations in the sky, wind blowing past moving around orderly, hanging high in the sky without earthly worries. Once seen, spectators are in a state of awe, and see cloud in dynamic changes. Works of gold and silver paper, Chinese ink and colourful artworks placed together.

The ocean and the land in front of the main building of Oi! were once connected at the beginning of the 20th century. Since the reclamation works started in 1930s, the shoreline has been ceaselessly moving outward, resulting in the expansion of Hong Kong Island. Fortress Hill was originally named “East Hill”. Its name dates back to when the British forces stationed there and built battery barracks in order to protect Victoria Harbour. Oi! thusly witnessed the centennial vicissitude of Hong Kong Island.

This installation Over the Ocean, Over the Mountain inhabited at the adjoining point of Oi! Phase 1 and 2, carrying the origin story of this land. Visitors on one hand could walk back and forth through the intertwining geometric space, as if it is a time tunnel that leads us to the past. On the other hand, the use of architectural material insinuated the amplification of Phase 2 Development of Oi!. While new art space was being created, Oi! looked into the past as well as all future possibilities.

To further encourage ingenuity of the community, Oi! invited Hong Kong Circus and sound artist Tim Chan along with his team respectively to intervene in the art installation Over the Ocean, Over the Mountain with contemporary circus acts and sound art creation.

Afterglow brings together three of the most talented mixed media artists working in Hong Kong today, KC Wong (RidiculouSneakers), Valeria Alexandra & Patrick Framel (collectively Sunstorm Studios).

For this collaboration, the artists have fused recycled materials with LED lights to breathe new life into discarded objects. The team sought to create a showcase which looks and feels dramatically different in the daytime and after dark. Viewers will be treated to two different displays; each playfully inviting the viewer to stop and consider the mass production of consumer waste.

Illuminati Fine Art proudly presents a solo exhibition of the established contemporary ink artist Lam Tian Xing. Titled Anthem of Calamus, the exhibition showcases more than 30 new works created over the past two years. Lam Tian Xing is famous for his paintings of lotuses, yet for the first time ever, this exhibition will focus on works that take the calamus plant as a central theme. The artist’s focus on this plant, which represents a sign of strength, health and energy, acts as a blessing and support to Hong Kong people in view of the ongoing pandemic.

Illuminati Fine Art is delighted to present Wong Sau Ching’s solo exhibition “Beyond the Senses” at the gallery from 15 Dec 2020 to 31 Jan 2021. The exhibition features 24 pieces of oil paintings by the artist between 2018 and 2020 which demonstrates his new ways of artistic expression. This new body of work by Wong depicts the reality based on the disordered pictures in his memories as a way to reveal the inner world of his subconscious, which the two worlds may not necessarily have a logical connection. The works embody the artists’ attempt to interweave together the multiple layers of experience of one’s subconsciousness, instinct and dream, allowing the autonomous force to guide him. The audience will have the opportunity to witness the outcome through this exhibition.
