SUMMARY:Salento Week in Hong Kong: Italian Culture through Films and Music

In addition to film screenings\, the event will include a Pizzica concert\, at the Shouson Theatre\, by one of the best Salento folk music bands\, “Officina Zoè”; powerful ethno-trance-therapeutic music! The eighth annual edition of the Hong Kong Salento International Film Festival\, is part of “Fare Cinema”\, a project wanted by the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs with the support of the diplomatic consular network and the Italian Cultural Institutes to promote abroad quality Italian film productions. HKSIFF highlights world-class independent films with an Italian and international focus. \n \nSince 2004\, SIFF has been screening the world’s best indie films to large international audiences: a unique opportunity to watch the real independent cinema. Many of the festival’s “Official Selection” films become part of SIFF WORLD\, which takes the films on tour every year through about 14 cities such as Hong Kong\, Yerevan\, Moscow\, St. Petersburg\, Santiago de Chile\, London\, Oslo and many more. The Salento International Film Festival brings to Hong Kong a selection of the Best of the Fest 2018 Edition\, to be screened at the Hong Kong Arts Centre – Louis Koo Cinema\, one of the six best arthouse cinemas in Hong Kong. This movie spot has attracted its fair share of film lovers by showing alternatives to the latest hits. Making great use of its in-house cinema\, viewers can enjoy a robust selection of films like classics\, shorts\, documentaries\, foreign films and indies. \nThis year\, they present six feature films from Italy\, Brazil\, USA\, Iran and China. The 2019 selection includes the new film “Agadah”\, from Italian director Alberto Rondalli\, inspired by the famous Jan Potocki’s Manuscript found in Zaragoza (1805)\, one of the great classics of European literature. An Italian film between fantasy and adventure with a great and sumptuous weaving of images. Ulisse Lendaro\, an Italian film director\, presents his first feature directorial debut “Imperfect Age”. A film which goes straight to the heart of emotions. The imperfect age\, adolescence\, with all its excesses and\, indeed\, its innumerable imperfections. Camilla is a seventeen-year-old girl who has the dream of becoming a dancer\, despite her mother’s concerns. One day\, at a dance lesson\, she meets Sara\, an aspiring dancer like her\, and her life will never be the same again. \n“Domino Effect”\, directed by Fabio Massa\, tells the story of Lorenzo\, a thirty-year-old who finally realizes his dream of going to Africa to teach. Right in the best moment of his experience\, bad news about his health unleash a domino effect on his life and on those of the people close to him. “Cowboy’s Heart”\, by Brazilian director Gui Pereira\, tells the story of Lucca\, a young musician passionate about country music. However\, he manages to be successful only with a more commercial type of music. At the height of his fame\, Lucca argues with his agent during a recording session and decides to return to his home town to connect with his roots and get back in touch with his true inspiration. \n \nThe Iranian film director Morteza-Ali Abbas-Mirzaei presents his first feature directorial debut “Isolation”\, winner of the Best Film award at the 15th annual Salento International Film Festival 2018. The film tells the story of a detainee who takes permission from the warden for a 72-hour leave after six years of imprisonment. He is out in order to bury his wife and to attend her burial ceremony\, but his mind is busy with something else. \nKate Bohan is a Chinese-American writer and director. After writing and directing “Kayla’s World”\, an award-winning short film based on her daughter’s life\, she decided to turn the story into a feature length drama. It took her two years to write a screenplay and finally turn it into her first feature film “Kayla”\, a touching movie that tells a story of life and death\, losing and gaining. Seven-year-old girl Kayla is forced to find balance between Chinese and Western culture. Kayla has a happy family – her mother comes from China\, her father from the United States. After losing her father unexpectedly\, her life changes forever. Her dreams and hopes are mercilessly taken away. She now has to grow up quickly to take care of her sick mother\, and Kayla learns how to deal with poor and gruelling situations while missing her father deeply. But she still inspires the people around her with love and singing and always finds courage\, even when she feels lost. \nExperience Traditional Southern Italian Music by Officina Zoè  \nSince the early 90s\, Officina Zoè has become one of the most well-known Italian musical groups for “pizzica tarantata”\, an ancient rhythm from the Salento Area. Their exciting and touching music is regarded therapeutic and hilarious with a compelling hypnotic expression.  With their dance and obsessive movement\, “Pizzica” was used in the past as a trance vehicle or even as a therapeutic source\, one of the strongest elements in the musical rebirth of the whole of Southern Italy. Thanks to Officina Zoè\, the Pizzica dance has become popular in all the European capitals\, as well as in the United States\, Tokyo\, Rome\, Paris\, Berlin\, Amsterdam\, Bruxelles\, Cairo\, Split\, Cyprus\, Milan\, Seoul\, Geneva\, Ljubljana\, Prague\, Lisbon\, London\, Lorrach. The group performs at the Shouson Threatre\, Hong Kong Arts Centre on May 26. \nWhen: Sunday–Thursday\, May 26–May 30\, 2019. \nWhere: 2 Harbour Road\, Wan Chai\, Hong Kong \nHow much: Movie screenings – HKD $50 \nConcerts – Free admission \nFor more information\, check the concerts’ website and the movies’ page

SUMMARY:Clockenflap Presents: The Jesus and Mary Chain
DESCRIPTION:The Jesus and Mary Chain are back in Hong Kong for an intimate show at KITEC Music Zone on May 28\, 2019. Formed in East Kilbride Scotland in 1983 around the writing partnership of brothers William and Jim Reid\, the duo moved to London before Bobbie Gillespie (Primal Scream) joined on drums and they attracted the attentions of original manager Alan McGee (Creation Records). Quickly earning a riotous reputation on stage\, their seminal 1985 debut album ‘Psychocandy’ would go on to change the course of popular music\, channeling the sneering angst and noise distortion of their live shows into hypnotic sweet melodies layered with dark lyrics that would beguile and bewilder. It is a sound which developed across albums ‘Darklands’ (1987)\, ‘Automatic’ (1989) and ‘Honey’s Dead’ (1992). By 1994 the album ‘Stoned & Dethroned’ was released with the single ‘Sometimes Always’ featuring Mazzy Star’s Hope Sandoval giving the band a bonafide commercial hit. \nFour years on and ‘Munki’ dropped in 1998\, released by Seattle’s Sub Pop (original home of Nirvana\, who were huge fans of the band.) A succession of well documented break ups\, fueled by brotherly love and internal tensions followed\, as William took up residence in Los Angeles and Jim returned to the UK. The brothers came together in 2007 to perform at Coachella Music Festival\, to be joined on stage by Scarlett Johansson\, for their “Just Like Honey” hit (as featured in ‘Lost In Translation’)\, before fans were finally treated to new JAMC LP ‘Damage and Joy’ produced by Youth and released in March 2017. \nThroughout their career\, few bands have had such a huge effect on musical culture\, and local HK fans can look forward to their highly-anticipated return on May 28. Tickets go on sale **** at 10am from Ticketflap\, and due to the intimate venue capacity\, we recommend fans don’t delay as this show promises to be a very special occasion indeed! \nWhen: Tuesday\, May 28\, 2019 \nWhere: KITEC Music zone\, Ground Floor\, KITEC\, 1 Trademart Drive\, Kowloon Bay\, Hong Kong \nHow much: HKD $540 \nFor more information and tickets\, check this website

SUMMARY:Buddhistson with The Lovesong and Smellyhoover
DESCRIPTION:Buddhistson is a charming indie rock band from Kashiwa\, Japan. Shima (songwriter/vocal/guitar) started the band in 1999 along with Marcy (drums) and Yas (bass). Yumi (keys) and Yoshii (guitar) joined the band a bit later\, and they have been making music and touring together ever since. They have been fortunate to share the stage with bands such as The Appleseed Cast\, Anathallo\, Brandston\, Gloria Record\, Copeland\, Cartel and Andy Yorke to name a few. \nBuddhistson is truly an inspiration to all lovers of DIY! Shima started the bands own label\, “MUSIC for GORILLAS”\, and creates all the bands designs (tees\, album artwork\, posters\, merchandise\, etc.) including most of their music videos! Shima also creates all the motion graphics that are projected continuously as a backdrop during their live show which adds yet another addition to the already captivating atmosphere of Buddhistson. His most recent DIY project was for Buddhistsons latest music video “EYES IN THE DARK.” This is their first music video to promote their latest album “SLOWDANCE-wisely and slow they stumble that dance fast” released Jan 2\, 2009. The album was recorded in Kashiwa\, Japan and mixed in Utrecht\, Holland by the amazing dutch producer Martijn Groeneveld. \nSinger-songwriter Ben Tse and his band the Lovesong have great presence\, energy\, intensity and some top tunes. Their set at U28 would have been very difficult to criticise had they not taken seemingly forever to set up and get ready to play. Even by the time Underground MC Yan introduced them\, the boys still were not quite ready\, leaving us in the impatient crowd to wait several more agonising minutes. But it was well worth the wait. The songs are loud\, catchy and technically audacious at times\, but the band pulled it off like a well-oiled machine. Playing with such intensity\, it was no surprise each member was soon drenched in sweat. Fantastic indy-rock. Be sure to buy yourself their new CD at their next show. \nWhen: 5:00pm–9:30pm\, Saturday\, June 1\, 2019 \nWhere: Live Music Association\, 11B San Mei Industrial Building\, 50 Avenida do Coronel Mesquita\, Macau \nHow much: MOP $220–$250 \nFor more information\, check their Facebook page and buy tickets at Livraria Portuguesa or Pin-to Books

SUMMARY:Art Macao: Outdoor Art Installations
DESCRIPTION:Featured image: The Wanderer\, by Wong Ka Long \nArt Macao is spreading art all over the city and it’s no different outdoors. There is an array of art pieces spread around in parks and garden across Macau\, including Cotai and Taipa. “Happy Heads” is at Jorge Álvares Square until August 15\, 2019. Created by Benoit+Bo–a duo of Franco-Chinese visual artists–it’s a sight to see in the middle of the grass. Their artistic practice is above all an invitation to travel. They work on territories and landscapes from their own memories and places they have visited. Through photography\, sculpture or video\, these artists can evoke the various issues of today’s world. “Happy Heads”\, which they call “smiling heads”\, are colorful masks inspired by popular Chinese festivals. The mask is their emblem but also the link between all their works made since the creation of their duet in 2003. \nHappy Heads by Benoit+Bo (Belgium) \n“The Wanderer” (see featured image on top) is artwork created by Wong Ka Long\, featuring multiple sculptures of Fernando Pessoa. Fernando Pessoa is a famous Portuguese poet and author\, whose work was acclaimed with its unique poetic quality and philosophy. He was also famed for “inventing” personalities\, fabricating 75 heteronyms to replace himself. In this international exhibition\, local artist Wong Ka Long is presenting sculptures of Pessoa\, representing the world through the perspective of Pessoa\, to make him more known to the audience. Sculptures wandering in the same place are and aren’t Pessoa at the same time\, resonating with the heteronyms he invented. \nSanctuary\, by João Ó and Rita Machado \n“Sanctuary”\, designed by João Ó and Rita Machado is a site-specific outdoor intervention located at the top of the hill\, within the defence walls of Mount Fortress\, once a historical military center of Macau\, now transformed into a prime location for tourists to get a panoramic view of the city and the mainland areas. It is from the weight of the history embedded at this site that this temporary bamboo structure reveals its meaningful raison d’être\, a shaded canopy to protect the passersby from the elements and give peace of mind\, rest and contemplation before their departure to the next destination. \nContemplation of Lovingkindness\, by Mok Yat San \n“Contemplation of Lovingkindness” by Mok Yat-San\, is a set of stainless steel sculptures combining elements of Chinese ink art and the contemporary landscape. The sculptures create a surreal and dreamlike landscape scene\, yet items like banyan trees and hexagonal rock columns commonly seen in Hong Kong draw viewers back to reality\, signifying the inseparable relationship between the natural world and people in the urban environment. It also reminds people of the importance of treasuring and preserving nature. \nWhen: June–October\, 2019 \nWhere: Anim’Arte Nam Van\, Macao Cultural Centre\, Taipa Houses-Museum\, Praça Jorge Álvares\, Mount Fortress \nHow much: Free admission \nFor more information\, check here \n\nOutdoor Art Installations are part of the mega international art and cultural event Art Macao. \nHappening from May to October this year\, Art Macao brings together cultural institutions\, hotel and resort operators\, consular missions in Hong Kong and Macau to create an unforgettable atmosphere and cultural vitality to thrill residents and tourists alike.

SUMMARY:Art Macao: ART．Appreciation．Legacy by SJM
DESCRIPTION:(Featured image: Still life of blue-and-white porcelain with lotus\, by Huang Guiwen) \nSociedade de Jogos de Macau (SJM) hosts yet another exhibition for Art Macao\, the city’s biggest and most exciting art event ever. At Grand Lisboa Hotel\, people can see art pieces from different international artists\, including Lusophone\, Asian\, and others. ART．Appreciation．Legacy is a celebration of cultural heritage by SJM seen through the prism of art. In collaboration with fellow artists to create a total of seven exceptional and multidimensional exhibitions in various hotels every month from June to October 2019. \nSecret Land exhibits Paul Gauguin’s piece\, Coin Du Jardin. The artist is one of the most important artists of Post impressionism. Coin du Jardin was made at a pivotal moment in Paul Gauguin’s art career. It marks the end of a long period of working towards becoming a professional artist rather than an amateur and a businessman\, and the beginning of a quest to explore new places and subjects. Painted in Normandy\, probably just outside Varengeville\, in the summer of 1885\, it represents a rare moment of balance and peace in the complex and varied trajectory of his life. For more details on the painting\, check here. \nCalla Lilies\, by Wang Ximei \nIn a homage to Chinese artist Wu Guanzhong\, SJM presents “The Early Encounter of the East and the West – 20th Century Chinese Artists Abroad in France: “Unbroken Kite String – relationship between concrete and abstract – A tribute to Wu Guanzhong on His 100th Birth Anniversary”. It features works by Wu Guanzhong in a free entrance exhibition in Grand Lisboa. Wu Guanzhong shocked the whole painting world with his concise remarks that pen and ink means nothing\, but the spiritual orientation of traditional literati is deeply reflected in his paintings. He compares his accomplishment in oil paintings and traditional Chinese paintings as “the amphibious hardships”\, and carries out an interactive art exploration on two aspects of “nationalization of oil painting” and “modernization of traditional Chinese painting”. \nThe same property also hosts Visions of Chinese Tradition\, an exhibition that\, as the name indicates\, is full of beautiful and exclusive art pieces from Chinese artists depicting China. Chinese lacquer painting is derived from the longstanding lacquer art\, which is an important art form in Chinese art history. Jiangxi has been a major lacquer art town in China since ancient times and a large number of exquisite lacquer wares were unearthed here. Its lacquer paintings are one of the representatives of modern lacquer art\, and are distinguished in employing traditional techniques to present innovative and expressive ideas\, winning acclaim for their varied styles and vivid colours. It’s with lacquer and a contemporary mind that these artists came up with amazing sceneries and horizons. Have a preview of the exhibition here. \nWarm sunlight\, by Xiong Jianxin \nVideo art from Portugal is also at SJM properties: three short movies are exhibited across Grand Lisboa Hotel\, Hotel Lisboa\, Sofitel Macau At Ponte 16 and Casino Oceanus at Jai Alai. Schizo is the work of João Pombeiro\, while Rodrigo Oliveira put together Rescaldo\, and Rui Calçada Bastos brings The Mirror Suitcase Man. \nThe Fourth “Y Show” features the works of local students. It aims to aims to provide an opportunity for graduates to showcase their talents. This is also a platform for young artists to interact and stimulate their innovative ideas\, at the same time\, assist in the building up of international arts and cultural exchange channel to enhance Macau in becoming the art capital for young artists. “Y Show” invites well-known local and international design specialists as the assessment committee to select 10 Outstanding Awards as recognition to the graduates for their efforts. \nFinally\, Portuguese-speaking Authors – Works from the collection of the PLMJ Foundation: it combines several works from Portuguese and Lusophone artists focusing on contemporary art that includes means such as photography and collage. PLMJ Foundation holds a collection of contemporary Portuguese art and\, since 2010\, also from the other member countries of the CPLP\, and has been asserting itself as a Portuguese-speaking cultural institution that understands the breadth of its activity in the context of Portuguese-speaking world. \nCall Me\, by Yonamine \nThis project consists of an exhibition of works by artists representing the Portuguese-speaking universe that shape a plural geography\, owned by a generation that developed their work in a context of a diaspora that extends to many cities and places around the world. It aims to show the public in general and in particular that of Macau the work that has been developed in the Visual Arts among Portuguese-speaking countries\, through a close look at the new aesthetic proposals and the experiences that\, among the Portuguese-speaking world\, brings new interpretations and a global perspective on our time and its artistic creation. This exhibition is the result of a selection of 15 pieces from the PLMJ Foundation\, where some of the most relevant names of this artistic scene are represented. Find out more here\, and know that this is a great way to get to know more about the Lusophone community without leaving Macau.

SUMMARY:Reality and The 'Real' - Works by Ng Man Wai
DESCRIPTION:In his instantiation theory\, Plato first talked about the definition of art and understood art as an imitation of nature. The exhibition Reality and The ‘Real’ is further developed by this theme as well. “If the artwork replicates objects like a mirror\, can it be art?” Man Wai raised such a question for herself. Therefore\, artist Man Wai hopes to faithfully copy and reproduce objects in a regular\, strict\, and objective way of expression. \nAt the same time\, in the choice of the imitated objects\, the artist is committed to choosing the most ordinary and most accessible things in life\, such as eggs\, peanuts\, walnuts\, stones and so on. Selecting these objects for “copying”\, her purpose is not to have the symbolic meaning of the object itself\, causing the association of the audience. But rather\, the definition of art depends on the audience\, and artistic creation and appreciation become a symbiotic process. The exhibition was curated by Lai Sio Kit. \nWhen: June 3–July 1\, 2019 \nWhere: Macau Art Garden\, 265 Avenida do Dr. Rodrigo Rodrigues\, Macau \nHow much: Free admission \nFor more details\, check the event’s Facebook page

SUMMARY:Sunless Asteroid AO22: Sun Xiaoyu Solo Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Sunless Asteroid\, codenamed AO22\, is a planet that was once named Macau (AoMen) in 1998. After the solar system collapsed\, the asteroid lost its star and has since been traveling around the universe. On AO22\, there is no day and night\, the semi-fluid black sand contains soil and water; there is no sleep and yet the low clouds composed of mercury are filled with high-level oxygen; on the bright yellow skyline we can see layers of paradisiacal mirages made by human colonists on this dead asteroid. After much blending of colonial and immigration histories\, an “insulation law” has been imposed – only men without an identity are considered in existence. And because of this\, this faint light spot turns into a totem symbolizing supreme happiness and uprising emancipation\, or an eternal taboo on the meaning of life. For aeons\, mysterious legends about AO22 have spread inside and outside the quadrant\, and countless creatures have rushed to it but never came back. \nThis time Ox Warehouse presents “Sunless Asteroid AO22”\, a solo exhibition by Sun Xiaoyu\, an artist with a MA from the School of Intermedia Art\, China Academy of Art (CAA). The exhibition features her latest work\, No Destinations produced during her residence at Ox Warehouse in Macau\, based on which a visual world of images called Sunless Asteroid is created. This space is intended to serve as a gateway to another world. All visitors to the space will read an autobiographical novel by an AO22 smuggler and participate in a pre-departure identity degaussing ceremony. The exhibition attempts to reflect on the future of human spiritual conditions by raising a metaphor of a cosmological view imaged on earth. \nWhen: June 5–August 4\, 2019 \nWhere: Post-Ox Warehouse Experimental Site\, 15 R. do Volong\, Macau \nHow much: Free admission \nFor more information\, call +853 2853 0026\, send an email to oxwarehouse@gmail.com or check the event’s Facebook page

SUMMARY:Hua Yuan at MGM
DESCRIPTION:(Featured image: Journey to the Dark II\, by Yang Yongliang) \nInk flows with the history and art of Chinese culture. MGM presents a modern artistic ink experience–Hua Yuan. This exhibition invites renowned multi-disciplinary contemporary artist Jennifer Wen Ma and international digital visual artist Yang Yongliang. Jennifer Ma uses the intrinsic connectivity and diversity of ink to present a large-scale multimedia and art installation of three gardens. “A Metamorphosis: No End to End” is a garden landscape bringing together natural\, sculptural and virtual textures and an installation opera in one act “Paradise Interrupted” which was praised globally as the opening event of the 2016 Lincoln Center Festival in New York. \n“Journey to the Dark II”\, by Yang Yongliang\, combines slow movement\, profound sound and darkness in a video installation that unfolds a side of Macau we’ve never seen: although it doesn’t exist\, it’s made of several portions of the city’s landscape. When looking carefully\, one can spot Grand Lisboa\, MGM Macau and so many other iconic structures that make Macau the city it is. This is a simple\, but intense experience to have\, especially in a place when horizons are rare and buildings are set side by side with some more. \nThe work presents a surrealistic urban nightscape merged with a boundless night sky; here the artificial world and the natural world coexist\, interwoven\, in a motley harmony. Through cutting edge digital imaging technologies\, this work is rendered at near-8K resolution. Incorporating a large amount of footage purposely shot in Macau and photographs of the signature architecture of the city\, the video has the distinct flavor of Macanese culture and topography\, raising provocative questions about the issue of regionality in the exhibition. Journey to the Dark II is a digital video that uses urban architecture as a brush and the layered mountains of Song-dynasty landscape painting as a compositional blueprint. It can thus be considered a contemporary extension of traditional Chinese painting. \nFrom afar\, the work appears tranquil and quiet\, with only a vague suggestion of movement. As the viewer approaches\, everything in the video reveals itself to be moving\, growing\, and transforming. Urban development not only nourishes a city but also raises some objective questions. Whereas the ancients expressed their appreciation for nature in landscape painting\, Yang Yongliang’s contemporary landscape provokes reflection on the state of contemporary society. The monumental high-\nresolution panoramic screen in the MGM Theater perfectly renders the near-infinite details in Journey to the Dark II\, enveloping the viewer like a dome and engendering an unprecedented immersive visual experience. \nThe darkness of MGM Theatre allows for an introspective moment in this exhibition lasting a few minutes: just the perfect amount of time for the audience to create their own stories in and about the city: one with no boundaries in this showcase. It harnesses technology and videography to showcase the transformation of Chinese ink via a digital landscape painting. Through Hua Yuan\, the essence of Chinese culture and art is preserved and progressed\, allowing the public to experience the beauty of ink and wonder at its possibilities. Born in 1980\, Shanghai (China)\, Yang graduated from the China Academy of Art in Shanghai in 2003\, and his works have been exhibited at museums and biennials all over the world. His is renowned for exploiting connections between traditional art and the contemporary\, implementing ancient oriental aesthetics and literati beliefs with modern language and digital techniques. \nInternationally renowned\, cross-disciplinary artist Jennifer Wen Ma employs an all-encompassing worldview to conceptualize a multimedia installation taking over MGM COTAI’s Spectacle. Springing forth from Ma’s mind and hands\, this garden landscape brings together natural\, sculptural\, and virtual textures\, synchronizing the entire Spectacle in one visionary stroke. \nThe artist’s signature honeycomb-construction paper-sculpture garden will be the physical artwork in the Spectacle. This stunning series of paper gardens combines state-of-the-art laser cutting technology with traditional Chinese art of accordion paper folding technique. Gardens spill down to the floor and occupy a pop-up exhibition space in the Spectacle. The installation is designed as a three-dimensional landscape painting. Viewers looking down from the first level will discover a world activated by visitors exploring the gardenscape on the ground floor\, and vice versa. The multiplicity of perspectives allow each visitor to have a unique\, immersive experience with the work. \nAn internationally renowned\, cross-disciplinary artist\, Ma bridges varied media such as installation\, drawing\, video\, public art\, design\, performance\, and theater; often bringing together unlikely elements in a single piece in order to create sensitive\, poetic and poignant works. \n\n“Paradise Interrupted An Installation Opera in One Act”\, by Jennifer Wen Ma \n\n\nFrom the same artist\, Paradise Interrupted: An Installation Opera in One Act\, tells the story of a woman searching for an unattainable ideal in a world that comes to life through her singing\, as she attempts to return to the Garden. Co-produced by Spoleto Festival USA\, Lincoln Center Festival\, Singapore International Festival of Arts and National Kaohsiung Center for the Arts\, it weaves the myths of the Garden of Eden and Peony Pavilion\, with a mesmerizing composition that merges a 600-year-old Kun opera with contemporary Western opera. The creative use of interactive technology enables a host of digital characters to interact with the heroine within a magical garden to create an enchanting story. \nThe director and designer of this exquisite opera is visual artist\, Jennifer Wen Ma. The composition\, which is both a celebration of tradition and an entirely new masterpiece\, is by Huang Ruo. The quest-seeking heroine is Qian Yi\, who has been lauded by The New York Times as “China’s reigning opera princess.” \n\nWhen: “Journey to the Dark II” – June 7–August 3\, 2019 (Closed every Tuesday and from June 12 to 14) \n“A Metamorphosis: No End to End” – June 7–October 20\, 2019 \n“Paradise Interrupted: An Installation Opera in One Act” – 7:00pm\, August 29 and 8:00pm\, August 31\, 2019 \nWhere: MGM Cotai\, Avenida da Nave Desportiva\, Cotai \nHow much: Free admission \nFor more information\, check the event’s website \n\n“Hua Yuan” at MGM is part of the mega international art and cultural event Art Macao. \nHappening from May to October this year\, Art Macao brings together cultural institutions\, hotel and resort operators\, consular missions in Hong Kong and Macau to create an unforgettable atmosphere and cultural vitality to thrill residents and tourists alike. \n\nA Metamorphosis: No End to End\, by Jennifer Wen Ma

SUMMARY:Black Is Beautiful: A Celebration of African-American Cinema
DESCRIPTION:Cinematheque Passion presents “Black Is Beautiful: A Celebration of African American Cinema”\, featuring ten classics and recent works from African American filmmakers from June 7 to 20. An opening party with a DJ and rapper kicks off the festival\, followed by the introductory talk “’That’s My Joint!’ ─ Why Black Arts Matter”. \nThe festival features Spike Lee’s classic Do the Right Thing back from the 1980s\, and Cannes’s Grand Prix winner Blackkklansman. The former depicts the tension between whites and blacks during a Brooklyn heatwave; while the latter retells the real-life story of black police officer Ron Stallworth in scorching humour. \n“L. A. Rebellion”\, is a term used to describe the school of UCLA emerging filmmakers from the 1970s as they developed their voice and offered a humanistic approach to the intrinsic worth of the individual. Charles Burnett’s hidden gem Killer of Sheep comments on a worker’s hard life in the ghettos with the texture of documentary. Julie Dash’s Daughters of the Dust follows the Gullah community\, descendants of West African slaves\, in their journey to protect their culture and heritage. \nTwo pieces envision a future that is not confined by reality. Terence Nance’s An Oversimplification of Her Beauty combines documentary and animation in a tale of being stood up on a date. Boots Riley’s Sundance winner Sorry to Bother You shows a call-centre worker climb his career ladder by applying a “white” voice. \nStrange Bedfellows session puts the stereotypical portrayal of black people back on the agenda with Wendell Harris Jr’s Chameleon Street and Kathleen Collins’s Losing Ground. The former revisits the real-life story of master impersonator Douglas Street with sharp wit; while the latter is a masterpiece looking intimately at marriage\, art and gender. \nDown by Law features Barry Jenkins’s If Beale Street Could Talk and Ryan Coogler’s Fruitvale Station. These are set to fascinate with engaging stories. Based on James Baldwin’s novel\, the former tells a tale of two lovers in the face of injustice.
