10 Chancery Lane Gallery is pleased to present HKFOREWORD19, an annual exhibition showcasing recent works by young Hong Kong art graduates. Now in its eighth year, the HKFOREWORD series, organized by 10 Chancery Lane Gallery, aims to actively promote and strengthen relations between the new generation of contemporary artists in Hong Kong and local universities offering art degree programs. Artists in the show are recent Bachelor’s and Master’s graduates from The Chinese University of Hong Kong, City University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong Art School and Hong Kong Baptist University.
Since 2012, 10 Chancery Lane Gallery has been devoted to discovering emerging Hong Kong artists and supporting the local artist community with the HKFOREWORD exhibition. The exhibition encourages fresh art graduates to pursue their careers as practicing artists and provide them with the opportunity to connect with both the local and international art community.
Artists and artworks selected in the exhibition are diverse and include paintings, photography, videos and installations, providing a vibrant survey of the creativity, originality and passion of Hong Kong’s art graduates.
