大館主題群展《墨城》探索水墨藝術,如何通過當代和幽默的方式解讀散居四海的華人的社會經驗,包括性別身份、慾望和幻想。 它展示了19位當代藝術家的50多件作品,與中國傳統水墨畫截然不同的藝術形式,令人耳目一新。
自稱「九龍皇帝」,曾灶財多年來他留下隨行揮灑的塗鴉書法,覆蓋香港多個電箱。數十年來,這些書法出現於全城的公共地方,被視爲香港的視覺符號。他的作品最大的特色,是他既非在官方認可的藝術場所活動,也無意讓人視之為藝術品。
大家曾以中國傳統書法的典範來評價曾灶財的墨跡,將他的創作看成一位「素人藝術家」的聲音,表達出主流社會外的個體如何被邊緣化及遭受壓迫。

Ink City, a thematic group exhibition at Tai Kwun, explore how ink art are used to addressed social issues among the Chinese diaspora through often contemporary and humorous ways, including gender, identity, desire, and fantasy. It showcases over 50 pieces of work by 19 contemporary artists, offering a refreshing take on the art form radically different from the traditional Chinese ink paintings.
Self-proclaimed as “King of Kowloon”, Tsang Tsou-choi has spent years covering electrical utility boxes around Hong Kong with wild graffiti-like calligraphy. For decades since the 1950s, to the frustration of the authorities, these writings appeared all over the city on public surfaces and were viewed as a visual symbol of Hong Kong. What is most defining in these works by Tsang is that his activities did not take place in officially recognised art venues nor were they intended to be seen as artwork.
