Hanart TZ Gallery is pleased to announce the opening of the new exhibition “MONUMENTS” on Saturday, June 28, 2025, from 2pm to 6pm. This special group show features monumental works by artists from different generations and with conceptually diverse practices: YEH Shih-Chiang 葉世強 (1926-2012), LEUNG Kui Ting 梁巨廷 (b. 1945), HU Xiancheng 胡 項 城 (b. 1950), YANG Jiechang 楊 詰 蒼 (b.1956), LU Dadong 魯大東 (b. 1973), Howie TSUI 徐浩恩 (b. 1978), CHOW Chun Fai 周俊輝 (b. 1980) and the art collective BOLOHO 菠蘿 核 (est. 2019).

The three years of COVID-19 redefined the cycle of an era, separated nation-states, and divided regions. The global carnival of neoliberalism and the acceleration of IT technology have caused a pivotal turn towards an unknown historical destiny. The new art that emerged since the 1990s is now defined as belonging to a past era. However, the shape of the present is constantly being defined, just as its mission and memories are constantly being reshaped. The monument is a marker of space and time. This exhibition includes both new works and selections from the past. “MONUMENTS” is not predicated on volume, but rather on the idea that the macroscopic view is achieved by critical icons that define the times and open up the present.

Opening Reception: 28 June 2025 (Saturday), 2pm to 6 pm

Gallery address: 2/F Mai On Ind. Bldg., 17-21 Kung Yip St., Kwai Chung
