The Chamber of Young Snow Distinguished Scholar Programme gathers leading international experts on art history, curatorial studies, visual studies, and cultural heritage management, to share their critical views with Lingnan faculty, students and other members of the general public through distinguished lectures, professional workshops and other educational activities.

The Centre for Film and Creative Industry, the Library and the Department of Visual Studies of LU jointly launch “A History of Film Exhibition and Reception in Colonial Hong Kong (1897 to 1925)”. It provides online access to more than 29,000 items of news materials, covering movie theatres, distribution companies and circuits, advertisements, and film reviews. These primary materials are expected to help construct the history of early screen practices in Hong Kong.

Co-organized by the Centre for Film and Creative Industries (CFCI) at Lingnan University in Hong Kong and the Asian Cinema Research Lab (ACR Lab) at Nanyang Technological University in Singapore. From September 2021 to November 2022, this webinar series presents nine seminars showcasing cutting-edge research on East Asia’s media and creative industries.

You are invited to attend the Then and Now: Collecting Art and Exhibiting Cultures in Asia conference, which will be held at Lingnan University in Hong Kong and via Zoom on 20-21 May 2021.
