Printmaking show 2022

Nothin’ Like the Taste of Print
An Exhibition of Works by 21 Hong Kong Printmakers

Hanart TZ Gallery, in collaboration with the Hongkong-based printmaking studio MablePrintClay, is proud to present the group exhibition Nothin’ Like the Taste of Print, shining a light on 21 up-and-coming Hong Kong printmakers.

Hong Kong has a strong tradition of printmaking. Interest in the medium has grown exponentially among both artists and collectors over the last decade, and the medium is celebrated in the form of international conferences and private biennials. The efforts of legendary artist-educators such as John Li Tung-Keung, Jane Liu, and Chung Tai Fu, have inspired a whole new generation of printmakers. One of these is David Jasper WONG, the founder of MarblePrintClay. Since its establishment in 2014, the studio has served as a hub for the local printmaking art scene. Apart from their reputation as Hong Kong’s top commercial fine art print studio, MarblePrintClay is dedicated to nurturing younger printmakers by organizing workshops and offering professional artistic support.  Although the featured artists were trained at a number of different art schools and have a diverse range of styles, they all have been part of the MarblePrintClay community at different points in their careers. In a sense, this exhibition offers a panoramic view of the ongoing renascence of the Hong Kong printmaking scene.
