Ping Pong Gintonería and Sunway Express present Jan Agha: Furr Yeah!!!

Jan Agha /Furr Yeah!!! /Mar 26 – Jul 26, 2026 / Ping Pong Gintonería 129 Second StreetL/G Nam Cheong House Sai Ying Pun, Hong Kong +852 9035 6197 Monday – Sunday, 6pm till late pingpongt129art.com Ping Pong Gintoneria and Sunway Express are proud to present Furr Yeah!!!, a solo exhibition by British-Pakistani artist Jan Agha. Opening 26th March 2026 during the week of Art Basel Hong Kong 2026, the exhibition will be on view until 26th July, 2026. Known for his raw, humorous, and deeply personal visual language, Agha’s work fuses echoes of Persian academic traditions with a contemporary irreverence that feels both devotional and defiant. Jan Agha’s universe of iconography is a canon mythology of our time. His figures, painted in thick oils and raw mixed media, oscillate between the sacred and the comic, the mystical and the absurd. Drawing on Persian traditions yet refusing cultural conformity, Agha carves out a hybrid pantheon of deities that are at once fleshly and spiritual, humorous and tragic. His gestures are devotional in their intensity but rebellious in their refusal to conform. …

Lap-See Lam at Blindspot Gallery

Published by Artomity Magazine

Lap-See Lam /Bamboo Palace, Revisited /Mar 23 – May 2, 2026 / Blindspot Gallery 15/F Po Chai Industrial Building 28 Wong Chuk Hang Road Wong Chuk Hang, Hong Kong +852 2517 6238 Tuesday – Saturday, 10.30am – 6.30pm blindspotgallery.com Blindspot Gallery is pleased to debut Lap-See Lam’s solo exhibition at the gallery and in Asia, Bamboo Palace, Revisited, coinciding with Art Basel Hong Kong. The exhibition presents Lam’s expansive video installation Floating Sea Palace (2024), alongside her latest glass and neon installations. Lam probes the experience of the Hong Kong Chinese diaspora, migrational movement, generation loss, and the mistranslation of cultural symbols, orientalized through the spectacle of exoticization. Through speculative fiction and mythology, she explores the slippery notions of home and belonging, drawing from her personal experiences growing up in a Hong Kong-immigrant family that owned and ran a Chinese restaurant in Stockholm until 2014. Lam’s work further integrates reinterpretations of traditional forms of storytelling, including shadow play and Cantonese opera, and 3D scanning technology. The scans glitch and deform, a quality embodied in the term “generation loss”, which for Lam conveys a …

Qiu AnXiong at Pearl Lam Projects

Qiu AnXiongBearing the UnseenMar 24 – May 30, 2026 Pearl Lam ProjectsG–3/F, W Place52 Wyndham StreetCentral, Hong Kong Monday – Saturday, 10am – 7pm+852 2522 1428 pearllam.com Guided by the aesthetics of Chinese ink painting and deeply rooted in classical Chinese philosophy, Shanghai-based artist Qiu Anxiong, for more than two decades, has developed a singular artistic language that moves fluidly between painting, animation, installation, and time-based media. In his work, he articulates a condition he describes as “modernity in flux” that is marked by instability, mutation, and profound moral ambiguity. To him, modern civilisation is an unsettled terrain haunted by spiritual dissonance. At a time when the use of artificial intelligence increasingly blurs what is real, Qiu reexamines our relationship with nature and the desire to dominate and control it. He does not abandon tradition in the face of modernity. Instead, he uses classical sources, Western anthropology, ancient Chinese mythological texts such as the Classic of Mountains and Seas, and Zhuangzi’s notion of equality of all things to rescript the chaotic phenomena of the contemporary world. Bearing the …

Wallace Chan 陳世英

Published by Artomity Magazine

In 2026, as he turns 70, the Hong Kong-based artist Wallace Chan presents Vessels of Other Worlds, a dual-site exhibition unfolding between Venice and Shanghai. The show opens at the Chapel of Santa Maria della Pietà during the 61st Venice Biennale in May and at the Long Museum in Shanghai’s West Bund in July. Venice drifts on water, dense with memory, while Shanghai flourishes from river and sea, charged with contemporary velocity. Between them, the new works shift in scale, in atmosphere, in the very texture of looking. The exhibition revolves around three monumental sculptures – Birth, Growth and Death. Working in titanium – unyielding yet unexpectedly lightweight, industrial yet capable of catching and bending light – Chan situates the pieces somewhere between sculpture, architecture and instrument. Each is several metres tall and composed of thousands of components, within which smaller, almost cellular elements suggest hidden systems at work. For Chan, material is not inert but has an existence with its internal logic. Titanium resists, reflects, recalibrates. Making, in this context, becomes a prolonged negotiation, an …

This is Price’s first solo exhibition in Asia, and his second with the gallery since he joined David Zwirner in 2024. Pearl Lines includes new paintings and works on paper that feature characteristic forms from Price’s visual domain. Price is known for his richly vibrant paintings and drawings, which bypass strict allegiances to representational or abstract modes. In his work, the artist sensitively employs an idiom of motifs that traverse the real world and the dream world, memory and collective history. His canvases and works on paper not only experiment freely with color, line, and space but also reveal emphatic shifts in perspective, suggesting scenes and imagery that the artist ultimately leaves for viewers to absorb and contemplate on their own. He has given the …

Zheng Zhou at Kiang Malingue

Zheng Zhou /Seeking Traces /Mar 24 – May 23, 2025 /Opening: Monday, Mar 23, 6pm – 8pm / Kiang Malingue 10 Sik On StreetWan Chai, Hong KongTuesday – Saturday, 12 – 6pm +852 2810 0317 kiangmalingue.com Kiang Malingue is pleased to present at its Hong Kong space Seeking Traces, an exhibition of recent paintings by Zheng Zhou. Zheng Zhou’s 2024 exhibition Spanish Grilled Fish at Kiang Malingue’s Hong Kong space continued the artist’s fascination with multifaceted, uncanny characters: his figures appear blurred, often rendered as simplified silhouettes, while layers of colour, decidedly saturated or subtly muted, weave these ethereal characters into profoundly alluring, vibrant environments. The current exhibition showcases the artist’s radical shift towards abstraction in recent years: rectangular colour blocks emerge irregularly as a recurring motif across multiple works, charting elementary chromatic networks through vibrant or deep hues like titanium white, scarlet, violet, and cobalt blue. In this new series, the mystifying narratives found in Zheng Zhou’s previous works give way to unrestrained rhythms: sweeping colour blocks cover the canvas like billowing brocade, producing a visual experience that is intricately layered and …

Mary Weatherford at Gagosian Hong Kong

Mary Weatherford /Persephone /Mar 24 – May 2, 2026 / Gagosian Hong Kong7th Floor, Pedder Building12 Pedder Street, Central+852 2151 0555Tuesday – Saturday, 11am – 7pm gagosian.com Gagosian is pleased to announce Persephone, Mary Weatherford’s first solo exhibition in Asia, opening at the gallery in Hong Kong on March 24, 2026. In the new paintings on view, Weatherford explores light and color, and pursues her interest in found materials, collage, and neon through a mythological theme that resonates with the changing seasons. Persephone features luminous paintings in vinyl emulsion paint on linen. Some are augmented by colored neon tubes, seashells, or coral. In Greek mythology, Persephone is stolen from earth to become queen of the underworld; upon her return she presides over springtime renewal. As in the Chinese myth of Nian, a hibernating beast that emerges at year’s end, her story explains the cycle of seasons: when Persephone is abducted by Hades, her mother Demeter’s grief causes all plant life to cease. An eventual compromise requires Persephone to spend part of the year below ground, and the other part on …

Following his major presentation After the Red Moon at the Museum of Art Pudong in 2024—adapted from Behind the Red Moon for Tate Modern’s Hyundai Commission—a new body of work will be unveiled across White Cube’s galleries in Hong Kong and Seoul. Since the late 1990s, Anatsui has transformed discarded bottle caps into monumental sculptural forms. Presented across both exhibitions, the new metal works expand this practice and, for the first time, are conceived as double-sided sculptures with no single front or back. Suspended freely in space, the works reveal their intricate construction—thousands of caps cut, flattened and joined with copper wire—while contrasting shimmering silver surfaces with the …
