Chow Chun-fai "Map of Amnesia”, Yeh Shih-chiang@Hanart & in the studio: Hanjin's Raw Jazz
2024-10-02
Chow Chun-fai is recognised by many for his works that combine movie references and scenes and events from Hong Kong life. His latest exhibition at Tang Contemporary Art draws on a collection of photographic images that he’s collected over the past two decades.
"Yeh Shih-Chiang in Ink: Constructing Eternity" features around 20 of the artist’s ink paintings. Yeh, who was born in Guangdong in 1926 and died in Taipei in 2012, studied in the last class of students at the Guangzhou Municipal Junior Art College under the ink painter Gao Jianfu. Yeh’s life took an unexpected turn in 1949 when he and a few classmates planned an art expedition to Dunhuang that was diverted to Taiwan due to the ongoing civil war. He spent the rest of his life there.
Hanjin Tan previously appeared on The Works in 2009 when he released his own jazz album, Raw Jaz. On that occasion he sang Antônio Carlos Jobim’s “Wave” for us.
Since then, in addition to being a singer and songwriter, he’s also occupied himself as a record producer, arranger, mixer, actor, and advocate for Web3 and blockchain.
Fifteen years later, we’re welcoming Hanjin back for a reunion and the chance to chat about his upcoming concert to celebrate the 15th anniversary of “Raw Jazz”.
And today he’s bringing us another Jobim classic.
