There are moments in art criticism when serendipity reveals deeper truths about an artist’s work. I experienced one such moment with Francesco Lietti on a humid Hong Kong afternoon in Wyndham Street. There he stood, carefully cradling his paintings wrapped in simple cloth, having just retrieved them from a gallery.
In the gleaming halls of the Chi K11 Art Museum, where commerce meets culture in Shanghai’s ever-evolving artistic landscape, Takashi Hara’s recent exhibition, “Blazing in the Universe,” emerges as a profound meditation on existence itself.
There’s something wickedly subversive about watching a female artist take the masculine stronghold of Chinese calligraphy and infiltrate it with lace—yes, lace, that most feminine of decorative arts, traditionally crafted in hushed monasteries and draped across the bodies of society women.

The Star Cuts
by Cyrus Lamprecht
“The star cuts” is a dark nocturnal scene, with the shadowy form of a figure, possibly dressed in a black turtleneck jumper, jacket and cap, looming towards us out of the picture plane. Exploding above them, and in fact interspersed between us and them, is a strongly delineated hard edged starburst form in bright white. This is no celebratory firework shell but something more menacing.

Ducky's Bathtime
by Cyrus Lamprecht
In “Ducky’s Bathtime” a figure wearing an outsized old fashioned deep sea diving suit stands waist deep in water, holding in its cupped hands a small pool of water, scooped up so as not to disturb the rubber duck that floats upon it. The scooping action reveals starlight that seems to come from beneath the surface of the water rather than the rain-streaked sky above. It is a work of surprising tenderness, like a nativity scene of an adoration of a child.
