What's On

The Chamber is teaming up with Wharf, Wheelock Properties and Chini Gallery to organize an exclusive docent tour of “Ho Kan@Hong Kong” an exhibition of artworks by the pioneer of Chinese geometric abstraction Ho Kan at Wheelock House, Central.

The exhibition showcases 40 of his geometric abstract artworks, with nearly 90% being shown to the public for the very first time, highlighting his significance in the realm of Eastern geometric abstract art.

We will begin with an inspiring session featuring renowned speaker Larry Zhu, who will share his invaluable insights on "The Next Wave in Art Collecting – Macroeconomic Insights". Curator Felix Kwok will guide the tour, providing insights into the creative concepts behind Ho Kan's works from various perspectives.
