解説

This book overviews the depictions of Hong Kong through the creative lens of arts. Instead of examining how Hong Kong people make arts, it looks into how Hong Kong has been depicted through practice and/or set as the scene in various art forms including videogames, theatre, music, comics, Cantonese opera, and architecture.

The colonial legacy and geographical identity of Hong Kong as a port city inspire decades of global creative community to comprehend sonic and visual elements related to its cultures. It has frequently been set as the stage or backdrop of many artworks and cultural artefacts. The different depictions as in various art forms and by different artists offer multifaceted perspectives on the city's complex identity, inviting a full account of how Hong Kong is perceived, transformed, and created in the process of artmaking. Such account will preserve the history of artmaking in Hong Kong and offer insight on its roles in the global creative community.

This book is of key interest to scholars and students of Hong Kong Studies and Asian Studies, as well as practitioners in various art forms who are interested in the history and culture of Hong Kong.
