The exhibition is inspired by Leung Ping-kwan’s (known by his pen name Yesi) collaboration with 9 artist friends and communicates their shared vision of Hong Kong. Five of the exhibits have not been shown before. Poetry and literary creation were central to Yesi’s life; so was friendship. The exhibition shows how friendship and poetry can nourish each other, displaying the author’s poems alongside his friends’ photographs. It also offers a bibliographical survey of Leung Ping-kwan’s work in three genres – poetry, prose, fiction \u2013 from earlier to more recent times.<\/span><\/p>\n

The exhibition “Good Company: Leung Ping-kwan’s Hong Kong” is held as part of the Faculty of Arts Centenary and is co-organized by The University of Hong Kong Libraries.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
