Art Macao 2025: Picasso, porcelain, AI and more at citywide event's third edition

Macau is going to be jam-packed with art exhibitions for the next three months as the third edition of 'Art Macao' takes over the city. The main event is the Macao International Art Biennale, held at the Macao Museum of Art and playfully titled 'Hey, What Brings You Here?' Curated by Beijing-based art critic Feng Boyi, the main exhibition poses a seemingly simple yet profound question that is often the first to be asked of any visitor to a new country as they pass through immigration, and reflects Macau's historical identity as a transit point for people from around the world. 'This query explores Macao's local history, memory and today's global complexities,' Feng writes in his curatorial statement. 'It also invites reflection on fundamental questions: 'Who am I? Where do I come from? Where am I going?'' Pablo Picasso's Cavalier and Horse is featured in the exhibition 'Picasso: Beauty and Drama' at the Grand Lisboa Palace Resort in Macau, part of Art Macao 2025. The exhibition includes 80 mixed-media works by 46 artists from 13 countries, including China, South Korea, India, Iran, Poland and Germany, spanning paintings, sculptures and AI-generated art. Feng describes it as a 'time transcending tunnel'.

Hong Kong dancer Mo Li sues 12 parties for damages over Mirror concert accident

A Hong Kong dancer left paralysed after being hit by a falling giant screen at a concert by popular Cantopop boy band Mirror in 2022 is suing a government department and 11 other parties involved in the show's production for an undisclosed amount of compensation. The defendants have been accused of negligence and breaching their duty of care. Among those named in the claims are the Leisure and Cultural Services Department, a contractor it hired, and a Guangdong-based stage production house, according to writs filed to the High Court this month. Injured dancer Mo Li Kai-yin, 30, was left paralysed from the neck down in the accident at the Hong Kong Coliseum, operated by the department, and is currently receiving treatment overseas. Li, represented by his lawyers, filed three writs, claiming damages 'for the catastrophic personal injuries, loss and damage' he sustained on July 28, 2022 while working as a dancer at the Mirror concert. During the show, a 500kg LED screen measuring four metres by four metres and suspended from the ceiling suddenly fell and hit Li.
