Print Art’s Legacy in Aberdeen Street

Description

Embark on a historical journey through Print Art Contemporary’s exhibition, Through Time — Print Art in Aberdeen Street. It starts at 22 Aberdeen Street, the site of the London Missionary Society’s Printing Office in 19th-century Hong Kong. This exhibition then explores the alleys of Central to uncover the fascinating story of Hong Kong’s Chinese movable type casting industry, an intangible cultural heritage. 

Returning to Print Art Contemporary at 35 Aberdeen Street, PMQ, this is where contemporary artists and writers draw inspiration from this legacy to create innovative visual and literary works. Visitors can also engage with guided tours, talks and workshops that deepen appreciation for this fading yet vital cultural tradition.
