‘Luminous Neon’ is a new exhibition at the DX Design Hub in Sham Shui Po that shares the radiant world of neon signage and the beauty of the traditional art form with visitors for a dose of nostalgia and collective reminiscing. Presented by the Hong Kong Design Centre, Serious Staging, and Tetra Neon Exchange, ‘Luminous Neon’ brings together a collection of painstakingly restored neon signs and new creations, creating a visual dialogue between traditional craftsmanship and modern creativity. 

Endlessly photographable but balanced with educational and informative elements, the exhibition contrasts the different generational approaches to neon art and its legacy as an enduring cultural symbol of Hong Kong. Check out the historic ‘Golden Phoenix Restaurant’ and legendary ‘Tai Ping Koon Restaurant’ signs that once illuminated two of the city’s most prominent soy sauce western establishments, the ‘Nam Cheong Pawn Shop’ with its unique silhouette, and the Ray-Ban-shaped ‘Tai Cheong Eyeglasses’ sign, and more, all of which highlight the hard-earned skills of neon masters.

Gold – a new “laboratory of ideas” in Wong Chuk Hang – presents its inaugural group exhibition as an exploration of the notion of uncertainty. Drawing inspiration from artist-composer La Monte Young’s ‘Composition 1960 # 10’, the artistic experimentation brings together artists from Hong Kong and abroad across various media and disciplines.

From celebrating deviation and investigating the beauty of unpredictability, ‘Certainly’ navigates the space between systems and structures, questioning the ‘straight line’ of expectations and reframing the concept as a starting point rather than an ending. Artists featured in the exhibition include Tozer Pak Sheung-chuen, Lousy, Young-Hae Chang Heavy Industries, Santiago Sierra, Shinro Ohtake, Peter Robinson, and more.

Hong Kong’s ‘Grande Dame’ unveils the lineup for its ‘Art in Resonance’ programme this year, inviting leading artists Angel Hui, Albert Yonathan Setyawan, and Dr William Lim to transform the hotel with their creative practices. Coinciding with Hong Kong Arts Month, the site-specific commissions span embroidery, ceramics, and architectural installation.

Hui brings Chinese gongbi-style delicacy to a vibrant façade artwork of embroidered goldfish. ‘Swimming in Light’ takes over the first-floor windows of the hotel to welcome guests and visitors in a playful, poetic manner. Setyawan’s ‘Metamorphic Modulation’ presents repeated forms painstakingly handcrafted through modelling and casting to investigate its sculptural effect and the beauty of raw colour and texture. Lim’s live-in-environment installation is based on his ‘A Bright Future’ oil piece, translating the artwork into a large-scale, hand-tufted tapestry that challenges dimensional awareness.

For the first time, HKU’s University Museum and Art Gallery is pairing Swiss and Chinese paper cuttings together, setting up side by side to highlight what makes each tradition so special. The Swiss works, drawn from the collection of Interlaken collectors Elsbeth and Niklaus Wyss, mostly use black paper to capture slices of Alpine life with fine, eye-catching details. On the Chinese side, red paper is often used to depict different themes and subjects like tigers, peacocks, opera masks, or pagodas – each carrying deep symbolic meanings. Both approaches are all about storytelling, pulling from Swiss village scenes or Chinese folklore to offer the audience a chance to appreciate how two cultures turn the same craft into something uniquely their own.

In a landmark collaboration between the Hong Kong Palace Museum (HKPM) and the Supreme Council of Antiquities (SCA) of Egypt, 250 treasures and relics from the land of the Pharaohs will be on display in Hong Kong for nine and a half months. Named ‘Ancient Egypt Unveiled’, this exhibition is the largest, most comprehensive, and longest-running display of ancient Egyptian artefacts Hong Kong has ever seen, displaying archaeological finds loaned straight from Egypt, many of which are being shown outside of their home country for the very first time.

Some of our favourite highlights include a set of canopic jars used to store internal organs in the mummification and burial process; statues of the female pharaoh Hatshepsut and Rameses II; painted coffins of wood and stone; a Book of the Dead papyrus scroll; and even an ancient Egyptian toilet seat.
