New AiR Project
The local scene seems quite prosperous recently, not just for the number of programs or the quality of them, but also the introduction of some new attempts like the full-time overseas curator Tobias Berger at Para-site since last week. And the new entity HKAiR that has just opened with a large-scale exchange project entitled "HK International Artists Workshop", with a good list of organisation and supporting partners.12 international artists have already arrived Hong Kong for a 2-week program, working with the same number of local friends. The program attraction that highlights the old district of Wan Chai where a hybrid culture survives organically is definitely a plus to many. To me, the statement claiming that "not only HKIAW is an experimentation in art practice, but also one in social process...(which) engages itself in the livelihood of the district" provokes my expectations.
Before joining the programs, it is also worth a visit at Triangle Arts Trust behind the project.
