Overview

'I work constantly and lovingly on my garden. What I need most are flowers, always, always. My heart is always in Giverny.'

— Claude Monet

Claude Monet and the Impressionists opened a new chapter in art history, leading the way for the continuous expansion of imagination by landscapes artists in the following 150 years and beyond in their attempts to portray transcendental worlds beyond reality.

Kwai Fung Hin is very proud to present in this exhibition a masterpiece of Monet created during his early years at Giverny – Pivoines (1887), alongside a selection of outstanding works of modernist Zao Wou-Ki, Chu Teh-Chun and Lalan, and contemporary artists David Hockney, Shara Hughes, Myonghi Kang and Ziad Dalloul, offering a rare opportunity of comparative study of them, unveiling an interesting, though not the only, cross-section of Monet's legacy.

We invite you to join us on this journey of exploration from Monet to the present day, which embraces the vibrant, elusive worlds of life to be found within these pictorial spaces, dissolving the barriers between past and present, East and West, and our outer and inner worlds.
