About Us 創作室簡介

 

The Studio

Founded in 2000 by two independent artists, Fong & Yeung Studio first started as a publisher and worked closely with the University Museum and Art Gallery of The University of Hong Kong to launch an exhibition of Fong So’s paintings, his first solo exhibition.

In 2003, the Studio presented an exhibition of paintings and photographs of its two partners, Hark Yeung and Fong So. A gallery for contemporary art, located at the heart of SoHo, Central, Hong Kong, was opened in mid-2004. Since then the Studio has mounted a number of art exhibitions in various venues.

In 2015, the Studio held three parallel exhibitions NYCLondonHK: a Three-city Trilogy at three public libraries in London and New York, showing the works of its two partners.

After the three overseas exhibitions, Hark Yeung produced a film, UmbrellaCity. The film is a 29-minute documentary about the 2014 Umbrella Movement in Hong Kong. After its completion, the film was sent to some international film festivals. It won the Award of Recognition in a global film award and became the official selection of some other international film festivals.

From 2014 to 2020, Fong So completed two sketch projects during Hong Kong’s series of mass protests, including the 2014 Umbrella Movement and the 2019-20 resistance movement. The two collections of sketches have been compiled into two books. The first one, Umbrella Sketches, was published in 2014 (ebook 2015, revised edition 2021) and the original sketches are in the collection of the British Museum. The second one, A Defiant City, also a pictorial album, was published in December 2020 (ebook 2021).

Since January 2023, Fong & Yeung Studio has turned wholly into an online gallery. The Studio is no longer based in Hong Kong and the two founding artists, Hark Yeung and Fong So, have moved abroad. The Studio will remain operating online and the creative work of both artists will continue.

 

創作室

楊方創作室於 2000 年成立,開辦者是兩個獨立的創作人,初期的工作是出版書籍及畫册,並與香港大學美術博物館合作,於 2000 年底展出方蘇的畫作,是為方蘇的首次個展。

2003 年,楊方創作室舉辦展覽,展出黑楊的攝影和方蘇的繪畫,繼而在 2004 年中於港島中區的蘇豪開設藝廊。其後,創作室在不同場地舉辦了多次展覽。

2015 年,楊方創作室於倫敦及紐約三個公立圖書館舉行藝展,名為 NYCLondonHK: a Three-city Trilogy (三城組曲),展出黑楊及方蘇的作品。

倫敦及紐約三個海外展覽之後,黑楊製作了一部影片 UmbrellaCity (傘城)。這是一部 29 分鐘的紀錄片,簡要地記錄了 2014 年香港雨傘運動的始末。影片完成後參加多個國際性的影展,獲得獎項及列入特選名單。

2014 2020 年,方蘇一再以速寫記錄香港民衆的抗爭歷程,包括 2014 年的雨傘運動及 2019 2020 年的反送中運動,並出版了兩本速寫集,第一本是 2014 年的《雨傘速寫》(2015 年電子版, 2021 年修訂電子版),速寫原作由大英博物館收藏;第二本是《抗命之城》, 2020 年底成書面世(2021 年電子版)

由2023年起,楊方創作室轉為網上畫廊,不再在香港運作,始創成員黑楊及方蘇亦已離港。創作室維持網上營運,楊方二人仍繼續從事創作。
