Did you know there was a time when Korea used Chinese characters in their literature and inscriptions? What if there was a platform to experience Korean culture and history through Chinese text?
A collaboration with Department of Linguistics and Translation, Chinese and History, along with Calligraphantasy and the Korean Association of Students at City University of Hong Kong, this student exhibition showcases selected calligraphy artwork from Korea and China while displaying the cross-cultural exchange found in Korean Classics and Si Ku Quan Shu Reading Collections from City University of Hong Kong. Of the 60 artworks from student research, 30 pieces were derived from Korean Classics while 30 were explored from Si Ku Quan Shu Collections. It is through these ancient documents where young researchers gained understanding of diverse heritage to choose the artwork available for viewing at Run Run Shaw Library’s 2F Exhibition Area. For personal tours, please contact Ms. Sandy LEE (lbsandy@cityu.edu.hk).

This exhibition showcases treasured items dating back to the Ming and Qing dynasties from our Library's Special Collection & Archive. This priceless collection gives a brief overview of Ancient China in terms of its history, society, geography, demography, travel, medicine, art and architecture. It also represents early cultural contact between China and the West. These items are invaluable records for the study of the history of China.
By showcasing our unique special collection we hope to explore collaboration and facilitate discussions about Chinese history within the CityU community.
So whether you are a teacher integrating primary sources into your class, an academic working on innovative research, or a student starting your project for an assignment, we want to partner with you and support your work in education, research and other academic studies in general.
This exhibition is held to commemorate the generous donation made by Dr Joseph Lee Chung-tak 李宗德 and other book donors.
Come visit the exhibition in the Wofoo Foundation Gallery of the Library.
