The
2005 Annual Visual Arts Exhibition “Macao Cultural Heritage: Beyond History” is
comprised of 125 works by local artists. These annual visual arts exhibitions
aim to stimulate artistic creativity, seek out new talents and promote works in
different media. While promoting technical innovation, the event also aims to
encourage the artistic expression of ideas. In this edition, participants were
inspired to explore the myriad aspects of Macao’s culture over the
course
of its history. The works that compose the exhibition were selected from among a
total of 350 submitted works, by a jury consisting of five experts in different
fields of the visual arts: Dong Xiao Ming, Yu Chang, Chen Hsien Tung, Tommy Lee
and David Miller, from Mainland China, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Canada,
respectively. In conjunction with the exhibition, the Cultural Institute has
organized a variety of arts-related educational activities, such as workshops
for schools and families.
