K.M. Ng Art Gallery
The largest online art gallery in Hong Kong is probably K.M. Ng's gallery. A lot of artists, young or established, are exhibited. I like the mixed media paintings of Chan Kau On, some were used before for the covers of the old Hong Kong phone books.

Art and Kate Moss
The September issue of W Magazine contains a 40 page portfolio of Kate Moss by leading artists and photographers - such as Chuck Close, Lucian Freud, Alex Katz, and many more... Amazing stuff! Details are here.
The whole project started because Lucian Freud did a nude portrait of Kate Moss after reading that one of the model's unfulfilled ambition was to pose for him.
The following is a photograph of Kate Moss by Chuck Close:

What Should I Do with My Life?
I bought this book yesterday. Seems very interesting; Bronson interviewed 50 people on how they managed to find their life's calling and hopefully happiness. I read the book review over half a year ago; glad to see the book is finally in Hong Kong now.

Ann Yen
I happen to find Ann Yen's "Chinese Opera" paintings in HKIS auction news. I like the painting a lot; the ultra-modern Pollock-like splashes but with bold colors and mixed with very traditional Chinese theme. Unfortunately, I can only find another Web site with information on Ann Yen's work.

Zakka NYC
While cleaning up, I found a business card I got from the Zakka store in NYC. It has a lot of cool art books and collectables. Check out the KaiKai KiKi stuff from their online store.

A Start
With the new semester, I have created a new website for myself as well as started blogging. I plan to use this blog site to list interesting things that I find on the web. These can either be related to technologies and/or art.
