WHAT’S ON

Medium Rare Medium Well | Annual Fundraising

2025


Printmaking is an art of discipline and chance – a medium where each print is an act of faith, a negotiation between control and surrender. This exhibition showcases the beauty and skill of printmaking while challenging broader assumptions. It proposes that the essence of printmaking lies not just in multiplicity, but also in the tension at its conceptual core: the dance between intention and accident, the original matrix and its unique impression.
.
Medium Rare Medium Well brings together fifteen Hong Kong artists – some skilled in woodblock printing, etching and screen printing, others working across diverse disciplines – to explore how the fundamental principles of printmaking resonate within contemporary art. Their works demonstrate how concepts like repetition, transfer and the balance between control and chaos transcend the art of printmaking, revealing unexpected dialogues across artistic practices.
.
This exhibition features long-term collaborators of the Hong Kong Open Printshop(HKOP), past awardees of our “Award in Printmaking” and “Research Fellow” programmes, as well as cross-media artists. They have witnessed the vibrant growth of HKOP, just as HKOP has been part of their creative journeys. Through the exhibited works, we hope the public will gain insight into the accomplishments of HKOP and lend support to Print Art Contemporary’s ongoing efforts in promoting print art culture, nurturing emerging talents, and connecting local and international communities.
