Lucie Chang Fine Arts is pleased to announce that we will be hosting Old Master Q’s 60th-anniversary manuscript pop-up exhibition from August 28th to September 8th!

In the early 1960s,  Alfonso Wong (1925~2017.1) created the comics series “Old Master Q” (OMQ) by using his eldest son’s name Wong Chak as a pseudonym. Under Wong's humor and talent, four to six-panel comic strips were created, with each panel titled with a four-character idiom, bringing to life an imaginative story world for readers. The "Old Master Q" series reflects the vitality of Hong Kong's urban life and the diversity of art, becoming the favorite reading material for the old and the young Chinese for decades.

One of the highlights of the exhibition is the display of precious original manuscripts drawn by Alfonso Wong and Joseph Wong. Additionally, Joseph Wong's artistic vision will be showcased through a series of stunning OMQ paintings, where the colourful or black-and-white OMQ characters are brought to life. As the artist expressed, art can take different forms and perspectives. Old Master Q is not just a comic character, but also a source of inspiration for artists.

Opening reception: 28 August 2-6pm

Gallery address: Unit C, 12/F, Gee Chang Hong Centre, Wong Chuk Hang
