Celebrating our 36th year, the HKAC, a multidisciplinary arts hub in Hong Kong, continues to play an important role in introducing Asian contemporary arts and setting new trends through cutting-edge exhibitions. Since 2009, we have been dedicated to developing a series of thematic exhibitions, the Annual Flagship Exhibition, and through them we have worked with various Asian curators to promote Asian contemporary arts in Hong Kong. This year we focus on the union between art and technology to discover how they interact and complement each other. This unique series was initiated by Ms Cissy Pao Pui Lai, BBS, who continues to set the theme of this Annual Exhibition, working closely with the HKAC curatorial team. We are thrilled to have Cissy and the Executive Director of the HKAC, Ms Connie Lam, to co-curate this year's Flagship Expedition. Cissy is a major force in Hong Kong's arts scene and has been internationally recognised by winning the Montblanc de la Culture Arts Patronage Awards this year. Her background as a practising artist in the USA brings an additional dimension to this exhibition, as it was in the USA that the Fluxus art movement flourished. Fluxus was the first international art movement involving Asian artists and involving the practice of combining sound art and moving images to produce video art. Cissy's insights into how art has been transformed by technology in modern Asia and her goal of engaging the audience will make this exhibition thought-provoking, fun, interactive and lively. I hope you will enjoy this exhibition as much as we have enjoyed putting it together for you. -Nelson Leong Chairman Donated by Prof. Dayang Magdalena Nirvana Yraola Hong Kong Arts Centre.
