Wanderers’ Land–Cityscapes in Hong Kong @France (Paris), Belgium (Antwerp, Brussels), Portugal (Lisbon)
《遊人之境——香城地景》@法國巴黎、比利時安特衞普、比利時布魯塞爾、葡萄牙里斯本

From structures intertwining the modern and retro designs, varied cityscapes, to traditional customs and performance, Hong Kong always showcases a facade of integrating East and West, and blending the old with the new. All kinds of cultures, history, stories, and affection are entailed. Be it the Hong Kong local or overseas tourist, one can discover the uniqueness and charm of the city everywhere, appreciate the beautiful view, and enjoy it.
Presented by the Hong Kong Economic and Trade Office, Brussels, curated by Hong Kong Arts Centre (Comix Home Base), Wanderers’ Land—Cityscapes in Hong Kong is a touring pop-up exhibition being held in France, Belgium, and Portugal respectively. It exhibits a curation of drawings about Hong Kong featured spots, bringing foreign audiences to look around Hong Kong from a local's perspective. Through this pop-up exhibition, it is also hoped that Hong Kong artists and creations can be introduced to the world in order to promote the long-term development of the Hong Kong local arts and culture.
In France and Belgium, the pop-up exhibition features drawings by local comics artist Pen So. Using a monochromatic palette of black and white, he depicts six local iconic spots, namely Tung Tak Pawn Shop, Hong Kong tram, Quarry Bay 'Monster Building', Lion Rock, Mido Cafe, and Dai Kam Lung Company. With his intricate strokes, he authentically illustrates the urban characteristics with local stories, meanwhile, shows his soft spot for the place where he grew up.

從現代與復古交錯的建築物,五光十色的城市景觀到富傳統特色的習俗表演,香港都展示了中西合璧且新舊交融的面貌,背後更訴說著各種文化歷史、故事和情懷。不論是香港本地人或是外地遊客,都能從這座城市各處探索到不同的獨特魅力,欣賞美麗的風景線,享受其中。

由香港駐布魯塞爾經濟貿易辦事處主辦、香港藝術中心(動漫基地)策劃的限定展覽《遊人之境——香城地景》分別於法國、比利時與葡萄牙舉辦,展出一系列香港特色景地的畫作,帶領海外觀眾以本地人的視角,四處遊歷香港。透過是次展覽,亦希望向國際推廣香港藝術家及作品,長遠推動本地文化藝術發展。

在法國站與比利時站中,限定展覽展示本地漫畫家蘇頌文的作品。蘇頌文以黑白畫作描繪出6個具標誌性的香港景物,包括同德大押、香港電車、鰂魚涌「怪獸大廈」、獅子山、美都餐室和大金龍蔘茸海味店。細膩密集的線條下,寫實地還原城市面貌與特色,將背後的在地故事記錄下來,更拼湊出他對這片成長地的情有獨鍾。
