Art Basel Hong Kong 2024

Convention & Exhibition Centre, March 26 - 30, 2024 
Booth 3E22

Gomide&Co and Almeida & Dale are pleased to present for Art Basel Hong Kong 2024 an unprecedented project focusing in particular on the production of Chinese-Brazilian painter Chen Kong Fang (Tung Cheng, China, 1931 – São Paulo, Brazil, 2012), bringing together a group of works that bring out his experimental approach in homage to the tradition of Chinese painting and covers the period from 1960 to 1990. 

 

Alongside Fang’s work, the project also includes works by Japanese ceramist Shoko Suzuki (Tokyo, Japan, 1929), who has lived in Brazil since 1962, with an emphasis on her production made in the country between the 1970s and early 2000s. Silence, solitude and meditation play a central role in the practice of both artists, and their works are important examples of the transcultural aesthetics of the Asian diaspora in the Western context.
