Economic development in the 1960s to 1970s evolved Hong Kong from a small fishing village to a confluence of Chinese and Western culture, with grocery stores in alleys, rickshaws on the streets, nightlife dance halls and floating restaurants.

 

Through our “Remember them? — Old Businesses in Hong Kong through Eyes of Artists” Exhibition, four renowned Hong Kong artists from different generations and creative styles — Au Yeung Nai Chim, Shen Ping, Cassian Lau and Wai Wai celebrate the city’s long-forgotten and disappearing businesses from the 1960s and 1970s. Evoking nostalgia with every stroke, their creations of seemingly ordinary and everyday Hong Kong scenes take viewers on a journey through the city’s history and the craftsmen, merchants and shopkeepers who played key roles in its social and economic life. Through this exhibition, the artists build a bridge from past to present, reconnecting people with Hong Kong’s old businesses, allowing their stories to live on.

香港，從前是一個小漁村，在60、70年代經濟發展下，各行業與生活融合了中西的元素，發展出獨有的文化，如巷弄裡的士多、街邊的人力車、夜生活的舞廳及海上酒家等。

 

「仍然記得佢哋嗎？—藝術家筆下的香港老行業」特展邀請四位跨越四個世代的香港知名藝術家—歐陽乃沾、沈平、劉啟舜及慧惠，用不同創作形式，透過畫筆以樸素、細膩及趣味的方式描繪出60、70年代至今被遺忘或消失的行業，看似平凡的日常，情感卻存在於每一幅畫的細節中，令看畫的人不知不覺回到昔日的香港生活氛圍中。藝術家們的作品為城市建立一座時空橋梁，再次聯結民眾與老行業，使他們的故事延續下去。
