PODIUM, HART Haus, and Eaton HK are proud to announce a strategic partnership that bridges the gallery, not-for-profit, and hospitality sectors. Launching alongside the coming solo exhibition ‘World of Interiors’ of Berlin-based, Ürümqi-born artist Min-Jia that opens on 20 September, this collaboration aims to spark fresh dialogues through contemporary art, pioneering new collaborative models in Hong Kong’s vibrant art ecosystem.
This three-way partnership presents a holistic contemporary art experience that integrates artistic creation, commercial sustainability, and community engagement, nurturing a sustainable circulation of resources within Hong Kong’s art ecosystem. Ahead of the exhibition, HART Haus will host Min-Jia for a month-long residency, open studio, and a shadow puppetry workshop, offering collectors, patrons, arts professionals, and the public an exclusive opportunity to engage with the artist’s contemporary reinterpretation of traditional Chinese craftsmanship. Following the exhibition opening, Eaton HK will facilitate a series of community programmes and insightful talks featuring Min-Jia, master Wang Tianwen, and his assistants.
PODIUM 畫廊 、HART Haus 與 Eaton HK 榮幸宣布建立策略夥伴關係，連接起商業畫廊、非牟利機構及酒店業三大領域。是次合作以生於烏魯木齊、於德國柏林生活和工作的藝術家皿家的個人展覽為基礎，旨在透過當代藝術激發嶄新對話，於充滿活力的香港藝術生態中開創全新合作模式。
是次的三方合作關係營造了一種全面的當代藝術體驗，融合藝術創作、商業可持續性和社區參與，促成香港藝術生態中資源的可持續循環。展覽開幕前，HART Haus 將為皿家舉辦為期一個月的駐留計劃和開放工作室，讓收藏家、贊助人、藝術界專業人士和公眾能與藝術家一同以當代視覺解讀傳統中國皮影戲。駐留計劃期間的皮影戲工藝工作坊將會邀請參加者運用牛皮紙，探索藝術家的創作理念以及深入了解此藝術實踐的工藝和歷史意義。展覽開幕後，Eaton HK 亦會組織一系列邀請皿家、汪天穩大師及其助手為嘉賓的社區項目和講座。這些活動旨在促進文化教育和藝術鑑賞，尤其增進油尖旺社區中基層群體接觸當代藝術和傳統文化的機會。
