Organised by the Cultural Affairs Bureau of the Macao Special Administrative Region Government and implemented by the Macao Museum of Art, the exhibition “Jacone’s Polyphony”, as one of the Collateral Event of the 61st International Art Exhibition – La Biennale di Venezia, will be inaugurated on 8 May in Venice, Italy. Curated by Feng Yan and Ng Sio Ieng, the exhibition showcases installations, painting and video works created by Macao artists Eric Fok Hoi Seng, O Chi Wai and Veronica Lei Fong Ieng, reinterpreting the creative trajectory and spiritual exploration of Wu Li across the East and the West, a painter from the early Qing dynasty, poet and Catholic, from a polyphonic narrative structure. The exhibition aims to explore the resonance of culture, faith and spirit in the context of globalisation, echoing the theme of this year’s Biennale “In Minor Keys”.
