Exhibition: The Art of Van I-Pong
Co-organized by Wan He Studio, Fine Arts Department, Art Museum, Institute of Chinese Studies, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, and Jao Tsung-I Petite Ecole, University of Hong Kong.  This one-man show of Van I-pong (1917-1994) presents works from two major periods of his life, first in Hong Kong from 1949 till 1984 and second in Canada from 1984 till 1994. Van's landscapes of the first period are widely acclaimed for the vibrant expression and massive construction through powerful brushwork and dark ink. At that time he taught not only in The Chinese University of Hong Kong, but also in his private studio that he established with an aim to share his knowledge of and technique in landscape painting with many more students. During his last ten years in Canada, he further explored and was best known for finger-painted landscapes.
