Ha Bik Chuen: 1960s-70s opens at Rossi & Rossi on 23 May 2026. The rarely seen sculptures and bas-reliefs that centre the staging of this exhibition had long been preserved in the apartment and studio of the late Ha Bik Chuen (1925–2009), and they offer a rare window into the early career of an artist in turbulent mid-twentieth-century Hong Kong. His transition from an apprentice of a renovation contractor to a full-time artist was a tale of will and intention, transferring his technicality in craft making and sensibility in materiality to his art practice.

Renowned for his diverse artistic practice, including sculpture, printmaking, photography, and collage, Ha's early works carry the experimental process to form a unique visual language informed by historical Chinese and modernist Western artistic influences. Self-taught, he trained his own eyes through a voracious consumption of art books and catalogues from overseas.
