Summary:

Located in Happy Valley, F11 Photographic Museum occupies a three-storey Art Deco building on Yuk Sau Street lovingly restored to reveal its original grandeur. While retaining many of the building’s 80-year-old architectural features, the restoration artfully blends in elements of contemporary design. Equally passionate about photography and heritage conservation, Douglas So, HKU Vice-President and Pro-Vice-Chancellor (Institutional Advancement) and former corporate lawyer and executive director of one of the largest charities in Hong Kong, has transformed what was once a residential block into a state-of-the-art private museum dedicated to photography.

The exhibition, Bruno Barbey China Since 1973, features a selection of images of China taken by the renowned French Magnum photographer, Bruno Barbey, since September 1973, when he joined the French President George Pompidou’s official visit to China. Barbey discovered a country undergoing major changes, yet still under the influence of the Cultural Revolution. A few years later, the photographer was back and saw already the effects of Deng Xiaoping’s proposition to the Chinese people: “get rich.” Nanjing, Suzhou, Macau, Hong Kong, Beijing, Shanghai. Barbey returned to China many times and visited various places. With every visit, he observed the profound changes in the country to which his photographs bear witness.

Welcome to bring your family and friends to join.
