Poly Auction Hong Kong | Theirs & Ours: Intertwined Times Opens Tomorrow – When Paris Met the East

“Who would they have become, without Paris？”

Paris changed the stroke of a generation. In the “Années folles” of 1920s Paris, young souls from the East—Yun Gee, Sanyu, Pan Yuliang, Zao Wou-Ki, Chu Teh-Chun, Wu Guanzhong—learned to see anew. Classical order, Cubism, Surrealist dreams, unexpectedly fused with the calligraphy, ink, and poetry. Something unexpected was born.

The exhibition unfolds along three paths: the longing of exiles, the rupture and rebirth of tradition, and the rising edge of women's voices. This is a century-spanning dialogue between Paris and Asia.

Opening Reception: 27.5.2026 (Wed), 6–8 pm
Weekends by appointment only

Venue address: 7/F, One Pacific Place, 88 Queensway, Admiralty
