Despite its title, Andy Warhol's 1965 underground film, My Hustler, is not, as far as I can tell, one of the many cinematic references in Stephen Chow's 2004 madcap action comedy, Kung Fu Hustle. Yet, the work of these two artists—Chow and Warhol—both make appearances in MADSAKI's latest exhibition, and the two films, as different as they are, help to define the logic which structures much of his work: that of the wannabe or hustler.

We are delighted to present "Ólafsfjörður", an exhibition by Ling Pui Sze and Cheung Tsz Hin with a guest curator Chun Poon.  Located in the north of Iceland, Ólafsfjörður is a small town with a population of more than 800 residents.  Iceland may not be a familiar country to many local Hong Kong citizens. Therefore, probably even fewer of us are acquainted with Ólafsfjörður - perhaps not even able to pronounce the word. Iceland may give off a perception of being a cold and seclusive location, where some Jedi masters choose to meditate. Imagine that you were going to Iceland - what would you do?  Would you play with snow in the winter streets or graze the sheep in the summer meadow? For Ling Pui Sze and Cheung Tsz Hin, they participated in an artist residency program for a mo... Read more
