The Art Promotion Office and the Shenzhen Fringe Art Center jointly organised the “Ink Art Ensembles” exhibition series in the GBA from 2024. Guest curated by Hong Ko and Eric Zhu, the series features five exhibitions in four cities, namely Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Foshan and Dongguan in the GBA. The series focuses on ink art as the subject or primary creative medium of the Hong Kong artists, while other GBA artists respond through diverse creative forms with the aim to create a platform for in depth artistic dialogues and to highlight contemporary artistic experimentation and innovation.
