Mrs. Gwen Kao, patron of the Friends of the Art Gallery, will officiate at the opening ceremony at 4.30 p.m. on 8th March, and Prof. Charles Kao, the vice-chancellor, will host the reception. The fan as a purely functional object has had a long history in China. The combination of painting and calligraphy with traditional fan crafting techniques produced a new art form. The folding fan in particular has aesthetic elements that are uniquely its own: its shape, material and folds are both inspiring and challenging to artists. During the Ming and Qing dynasties, the popularity of decorated fans enriched the development of painting and calligraphy. From fans one can survey the history of these two closely related art forms. The exhibition will feature 180 pieces by 160 artists, which include the masters as well as lesser known artists like You Daoheng, Su Chenjie and Mo Yuyaun, and scholar-officials such as Gao Panlong, Shi Kefa and Zhu Yuzun. The Art Museum will publish a fully illustrated 400-page catalogue of the exhibition as well as organize lectures and a demonstration to accompany the function.
