Join us in Goethe-Gallery's new exhibition opening on May 23, 2026 (Sat) at 4:00 PM! The artists and curators will be present.
Bethany Man, Elizabeth Li and Aidan Ng are three Hong Kong artists who graduated from The Chinese University of Hong Kong’s Department of Fine Arts in 2023, 2024 and 2025 respectively.
This group exhibition is their effort to show how their generation prioritises agility when it comes to subject matters, materials and daily life in order to stay true to their artistic pursuits and what freedom means to them.
“Free Radicals", the exhibition title, refers to the category of molecules that are catalytic and highly responsive to their environments, unbound by stable structures, and essential.
The artworks taking over the Goethe Gallery and the Black Box Studio will demonstrate the importance of collaboration, while also spotlighting three unconventional practices that pertain to the "zeitgeist" of our time.
The opening day also features a sharing talk: Free Radicals as Methodology: A dialogue between young artists and historians at 5pm. Daniella Lopez, licence holder and creative director of TEDxHongKong, will moderate a lively presentation with the three artists as well as Angus Hui and Carlos Chiu, two historians dedicated to unearthing forgotten history in the city, to expand on how the "free radicals" theme applies beyond contemporary art.
