Introduction

Mr. Cheung Ping (1926 -2007) is a native of Yunfu in Guangdong Province. In his youth, he studied painting and worked in commercial advertising. During his fifties, he took up photography as a profession, engaging himself in creative endeavors while simultaneously teaching the art. He excelled in combining traditional and modern artistic theories and skills, and thus developed his own artistic style of picturesque photography. At the age of 78, he continued to strive for higher levels of achievement by learning to use Photoshop in order to create digital photos.

Mr. Cheung was invited to stage two solo exhibitions at the HKUST Library in 1998 and 2005. Both exhibitions received overwhelmingly positive responses.

The photos currently on display are part of Mr. Cheung Ping’s donations to our Library. Through this exhibition, we hope to once again show our great respect for Mr. Cheung, and to give our University community an opportunity to appreciate Mr. Cheung’s poetic and innovative art.
