✨ To commemorate the 50th anniversary of Picasso's death, the Hong Kong University Art Gallery held the "Pablo Picasso: Glass Portraits" exhibition, displaying Picasso's glass works created between 1954 and 1957. ✨ This is a little-known artistic creation of Picasso, showing his exploration of artistic mediums in his later years, similar to the paper cutouts of Matisse's later years. There are few documents and books mentioning these glass portraits, and exhibitions of the same type are also rare. There are no more than 50 Picasso glass paintings in existence. This exhibition brings together 19 of them, all from private collections. It is the first large-scale exhibition in 20 years since the four exhibitions in Japan in 1998. ✨ The exhibits cover Picasso's creative styles in different periods, and most of them have original oil paintings, which must be the author's favorite works. Through the luminous light box, Picasso used glass pieces as brushstrokes, stacking them layer by layer to form exquisite glass paintings (gemmaux). Compared with ordinary paintings, such creations are more three-dimensional, and it seems that one can see the author's brushstroke process and his interpretation of the world's characters through colored glass fragments of different sizes. ✨ The first floor of the exhibition hall displays Picasso's self-portraits and the women around him. The curator tried to use Picasso's rich emotional undertones to express the author's artistic life. The second floor displays a group of still life sketches, which show the progress of Picasso's artistic creation from classical to modern. I cannot describe the feeling of seeing these works in person. Whether it is the macroscopic women, pigeons, flowers and fruits, or the microscopic fragments, particles, and bubbles, they all present an ever-changing state. No matter how good the camera is, it cannot record what the eyes see. Only by being there in person can you feel it. 📍Address: Hong Kong University Art Museum, 90 Bonham Road, Mid-Levels, Central and Western District, Hong Kong 📌Exhibition hall: 1/F and 2/F, Fung Ping Shan Building 💵Cost: Free #Sign up for a hotel tester #Weekend trip #Hong Kong good places #Hong Kong check-in #Art

#Sign up for hotel test sleeper I recently visited the Hong Kong University Art Museum and found out that there is a new exhibition on display, which displays many glass light and shadow installation art paintings 🎨 jointly created by art master Picasso and light and shadow technology experts! What is rare is that this exhibition selects less familiar glass paintings by Picasso. I heard that they are from a private collection. The works have different themes, such as the portrait "Women of Algiers", the light and shadow installation of the bullfighting scene "Bullfight", etc., which made me dazzled! Hong Kong University Art Gallery and Museum - "Pablo Picasso: Portrait on Glass" Exhibition Address: 1/F & 2/F, Fung Ping Shan Building, 90 Bonham Road, Pokfulam, Hong Kong Cost: Free admission

📍Exit C1 of University of Hong Kong MTR Station - University of Hong Kong Museum of Fine Arts Today I visited. Special exhibition "Porcelain" by the University of Hong Kong Museum of Fine Arts It mainly explains that about the seventeenth century, the Portuguese took the lead in successfully mastering the navigation technology from Europe to China. It opened up a continuous and constant exchange of commodities and knowledge between nations, during which unfortunately many merchant ships lost their way at sea, especially in Southeast Asia. Ceramics are both the ballast of merchant ships and waterproof, so many ceramics are still intact after hundreds of years of experience. The exhibition board also introduces the manufacturing method and process of ceramics, so that we know why ceramics are preserved so well through hundreds of years of history 👍 #LocalTravel #Exhibition2022

Today we introduce the "A Wandering in Time - Photography by Qin Wei" exhibition at the University of Hong Kong Art Gallery, which displays photos taken by Qin Wei in France between the 1980s and 1990s. He traveled around Europe, searching for the origin of time and realizing that everything he photographed had a fixed time, a beginning and an end. Through this journey, Qin Wei deeply realized that life lies between fate and chance, and suddenly felt the loneliness and wandering of ancient Chinese poets. You can see from the photos that photographer Qin Wei gained life experience during the shooting process👍 Location: 90 Bonham Road, Pokfulam, Hong Kong (Fung Ping Shan Building, Hong Kong Museum of Fine Arts) #LocalTourism#2022Exhibition

Originally, I went to the University Museum and Art Gallery at the University of Hong Kong to see another exhibition featuring jewelry designs. On my way, I passed by the "Bamboo Craftsmanship: Traditional Chinese Elegance and Modern Japanese Innovation" exhibition, and my eyes were drawn to a light brown bamboo basket displayed in a cabinet. Its design was minimalist, with weaving that seemed casual yet intricate. Though it was an antique, it exuded a distinctly modern vibe. This exhibition is quite unique in theme, with a broad and diverse selection of over 200 bamboo-woven items. It showcases a rich array of weaving techniques, the evolution of bamboo crafts from the early Ming and Qing dynasties, and the innovative developments in contemporary craftsmanship. The works reflect the blend of traditional basketry and modern design. Truly captivating. Leaving the University of Hong Kong, I noticed nearby landmarks such as the Union Church and the red-brick exterior of King's College. These old structures, weathered by time, have been nourished by history and remain timelessly fresh.

Sleeping Member The Legacy of Craftsmanship: Two Hundred Years of French Jewelry Artistry (1770-1970) I graduated from a design program myself, so I’m always curious about all kinds of design 🥰 Today, I came to the University of Hong Kong with my son to soak in the campus atmosphere. We saw that the University of Hong Kong Art Museum has a jewelry exhibition, so we decided to go in and experience the design vibe together 💕 We even joined a tour to listen to explanations about several jewelry sketches, learning about the design concepts and appreciating the finished pieces. My son was so excited that he pointed to one of the glittering gold jewelry pieces and asked Dadi to give it to Mommy ✨ I was really happy 😍 There was also an AI workshop for kids to color, projecting their own jewelry designs onto the wall, making for a delightful afternoon 🥰 This exhibition runs until October 5, 2025, so if you’re interested, you can go check it out!

Hong Kong is a world-renowned tourist and vacation city, attracting thousands of visitors every day for sightseeing and holidays. Hong Kong has many museum attractions, and this time we introduce a visit guide for the French Two-Century Jewelry Exhibition at the University of Hong Kong Art Museum. From June 6 to October 5, the University of Hong Kong Art Museum offers free admission to the French jewelry exhibition. In addition to exhibits from Boucheron, René Lalique, Van Cleef & Arpels, and Fred, there are also many precious sketches from Cartier and Léon Hatot. MTR Sai Ying Pun Station Exit C Bus No. 23 from North Point Pier to Po Fu Road: HKU Station Please maintain silence inside the venue. The University of Hong Kong Art Museum and L’ÉCOLE School of Jewelry Arts are honored to present the special exhibition "The Legacy of the Line: Two Centuries of French Jewelry Craftsmanship (1770-1970)," focusing for the first time on jewelry design, masterpieces, and the artistic creation process of precious metals and gemstones. The exhibition will be open to the public from June 6 to October 5, 2025. Research and publications on jewelry drawings have always been scarce, and exhibition opportunities are even rarer, making them little known to the public. An extended exhibition will be held concurrently at L’ÉCOLE School of Jewelry Arts located in K11 Musea. This exhibition benefits from the Van Cleef & Arpels Archives Department, the Van Cleef & Arpels Jewelry Culture Foundation (established in 2019 for research, display, and educational purposes), and also graciously borrows precious items from the Lalique Museum in France and private jewelry collections in Hong Kong, showcasing about one hundred selected drawings and thirteen exquisite jewelry pieces. French jewelry making has a long and distinguished history, with extraordinary excellence and far-reaching influence. The exhibition "The Legacy of the Line: Two Centuries of French Jewelry Craftsmanship (1770-1970)" and its catalog showcase the culture of jewelry design concepts—from initial sketches to gouache paintings, culminating in refined immortal masterpieces, illustrating the outstanding achievements of many creators.

#HongKongMuseumGuide Nestled within the University of Hong Kong campus, the Art Museum is a cultural treasure trove that brings together ancient and modern art in one place.

Currently on display is the special exhibition "Ancient Charm, New Voices: Selected Literati Calligraphy and Paintings from the Collection," featuring ink works by renowned artists from the Ming and Qing dynasties to modern times. A dedicated comparison area invites visitors to explore the poetry, calligraphy, and philosophy within literati paintings. The museum’s serene atmosphere, with views of the campus greenery through its windows, makes it an ideal cultural space for leisurely walks, quiet reading, and reflection. It is also recommended to visit the century-old campus and the HKU Main Building nearby to experience the unique blend of colonial heritage and modern education.

I had one day layover in Hong Kong and OMG I am in love with this city! I bought train tickets in airport from airport to city center and back it was 16 US$ There the museum in Hong Kong University definitely must visit! You can walk by embankment especially recommend in the morning very beautiful sunrise 🌅 Definitely must visit!

The Hong Kong University Art Museum was formerly the Hong Kong University Fung Ping Shan Library, so the original name is still retained at the entrance. As the oldest existing museum in Hong Kong, it houses many Chinese cultural relics and artworks. Although it occupies two floors, it is not very large. In addition, there are different calligraphy and painting exhibitions regularly with rich content. Some old rosewood furniture is placed in the exhibition hall for citizens to rest. It is also a kind of enjoyment to appreciate the exhibits, which is different from other museums. Address－90 Bonham Road, Pokfulam, Hong Kong Environment/Facilities - Various art exhibitions from ancient and modern times, both Chinese and foreign, are often held Features: Many rare exhibits Price per person – Free admission Rating - 90 points (out of 100) #HKU #Museum #FreeAdmission #GreatPlacetoCheckIn

In addition to taking photos at general attractions in Hong Kong, you can't miss the University of Hong Kong. The University of Hong Kong has its own subway station. Get off at the University of Hong Kong station. The best order is to visit the teaching building near the red wall first, and then take photos at the Centennial Garden to feel the cultural atmosphere. After that, you can walk to the main building for a visit. When you arrive at the main building, you can see the British architectural style full of colonial colors. As the first university in Hong Kong, since it was opened by the British, all buildings are designed with granite. The entrances and exits are all round arches. Occasionally, you can see our Chinese spring couplets on the doors of the classrooms, and feel the charm of the combination of Chinese and Western cultures. So in addition to the common red wall being a popular check-in spot, the photos taken at the main building are actually more beautiful. It is strongly recommended to take photos at dusk (around 1830) to avoid the crowds and no appointment is required. Friends who come to the University of Hong Kong should remember to share it with friends who are preparing to visit.

So good so tasty so yummy so good so nice good food good trip happy me happy us

#FreeHongKongAirlines An art museum inside the University of Hong Kong. It has a long history, and the oval hall is beautiful. Admission is free, but there are a lot of exhibits, both temporary and permanent. The Picasso glass exhibit was a huge success. There are also cafeterias and a co-op inside the University of Hong Kong. There used to be a Chinese tea cafe (Jue Zhan Tang Lou?) attached to the museum, but I haven't been able to find it in 23 years. If anyone knows of one, please let me know. It's an area I'd like to explore if I stay in Hong Kong again!

Recently, I discovered a hidden specialty Western restaurant near the University of Hong Kong Station. The restaurant has a very special name called "Vie Won Won"! The restaurant is two stories high, and the ceiling is very high, which gives people a very relaxing feeling of space There are many artistic decorations in the interior, and the owner's thoughts can be seen everywhere👍 ‣ 金枪鱼和牛鞑靼 ($178) This hehe is very different from regular tuna/beef heta, mixed with wagyu beef and tuna. It tastes soft and has a very fragrant greasy taste, with the avocado at the bottom🥑 Both the mouthfeel and taste are very rich, worth recommending 😍 ‣ 蟹肉烩饭（$198） This risotto looks exquisite. The crab meat is very fresh and has a lot of portion. You can eat crab meat in every bite☺️ There are still many crystal clear crabs on the surface Risotto smells very fragrant, tastes quite smoky, and tastes just right😋 ‣ 蜡烛灯（$94） This cocktail is refreshing to drink. Includes mango juice, lemon juice, pomegranate, Vodka, Rum The taste is sweet, the wine taste is not very heavy, quite easy to enter 😊 ‣ 我们的糕点师特价 ($68) Today's cake is chocolate cake, overall quite surprising😍 The chocolate taste is very rich, it has the smooth texture of cheesecake🥰 The sweetness is also just right, don't miss it if you like chocolate! 💭 C͟o͟n͟c͟l͟u͟s͟i͟o͟n͟ Whether the restaurant environment, food quality, or service attitude is good. It's full of customers on weekday nights. I recommend you to come and try it! 💰Total: $592 ($296pp includes 10% service charge) 📍Vie-won-won G/F, 8 South Lane, Western District 🚩More similar restaurants #foodstep_Western 🚩 More restaurants in the same area #foodstep_University of Hong Kong #foodstep_West Point 📣点赞&分享&关注 @ourfoodstephk_ 🙏🏻Thank you for your support, for being my motivation to share 💪🏻 #HongKongFood #WesternFood #FoodGuide #West PointRecommendation #HongKongFood #University ofHongKong #UniversityStationFood

#timetotravel When we decided to have our pre wedding phots taken in Hongkong, our photographer took us here and he said The University of Honkong is famous amongst photography lovers as it has got a uniqie old architecture especially the stairs section of the university. After we're done shooting, we also ate at the ccafiteria which is also open for tourists or whoever is visiting the university. Enjoy your shoot!

Transportation Tips - Take the Hong Kong Island Line to the Hong Kong University Station, and walk about ten minutes from Exit C2. The library is located on the campus of the University of Hong Kong. The local attraction - Fung Ping Shan Library itself is a statutory Grade I historic monument. The entire museum is an English-style building with multiple exhibition halls, which display historical artworks and archaeological relics from the Neolithic Age to the Qing Dynasty in different categories. They are of great value and were all donated by private collectors. It has a more vintage feel than the exhibits in the Palace Museum. In addition, there is a glass portrait of Pablo Picasso on display this time, which is the first time it is exhibited in Hong Kong. It is full of a strong sense of art and is a must-see for those who love abstract paintings. #HongKongGoodFamilyDestination #WeekendTour #HongKongGoodDestination

today is everyone’s birthday, a great steak to kick start.

Another delicious recommendation in Sai Ying Pun 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻The food is fresh and excellent 😋😋The special recommendation here is pork chop ~ basically every customer eats it😍

In addition to a few temporary exhibitions, the museum also has a collection of ceramics from different periods for people to view. ⛰ Neolithic Painted pottery is a representative of the material culture of the Neolithic Age, and the lines outlined on its surface served as the foundation for later ink and calligraphy. Han Dynasty Han Dynasty ceramics often exude the atmosphere of metalwork prototypes, and add iron and copper elements to present different tones, generally used as funerary objects. Blue and white porcelain The emergence of blue and white porcelain was the result of the introduction of cobalt, a natural chemical raw material, by the prosperity of the Silk Road. It later became the first truly global commodity, dominating the export of ceramics in the Ming and Qing dynasties.
