The Painting Arts of Hong Kong (Speaker: Vincent LEE Kwun-leung)VincentKwunLeungLee
This presentation aims at selecting the representative artists from the Hong Kong art scene to tell the global art lovers a virtue, that the painting arts of Hong Kong forbear a coexistence among Chinese, Asian and Western aesthetics. Under a liberal and democratic circumstances, Hong Kong artists can search for their marketing potentials by manipulating political, ecological and narrative elements as their creative themes.

Triennial Report for "Atelier de Belas-Artes do Vincent Lee" (2019)VincentKwunLeungLee
I used to write annual reports during my past days of service at Art Of Nature Gallery. I wrote the reports in Chinese as most of the clients and art collectors are Fujianese or Mainland Chinese. Originally, I had an inner struggle for which language I should use for this Triennial Report of my Kwai Hing studio. But, as I notice that Hua Gallery has selected me and Chow Chun Fai to be the Hong Kong representatives in industrial art, I re-adopt the methodology of Rosaryhill School to deal with an English editorial for this report with international vision. Here you can see how I illustrate my artistic contributions and aspirations as similar as a piece of cultural column from a global magazine, in which I learnt this literary philosophy from the experience of serving as a Press Director of Annual Editorial Board at Rosaryhill.
It is welcomed that online news media or magazine publishers kindly adopt this report for your precious columns.
This Triennial Report is equivalent to the CEO level of Sorina Fok's proposal-writing culture from the "Kind Person, Kind Auntie" movie of ViuTV Channel, even though I am just a humble lifeguard with no chance of serving inside a huge enterprise and my Kwai Hing studio is just a tiny factory unit.
Throughout these three years, I seemingly try to develop an entrepreneurial image and working environment as similar as the lofty sentiments of Sorina Fok's office culture in "Kind Person, Kind Auntie" episodes, which is a bit different from the "Haixi Affection" Fujianese style of my former gallery company "Art Of Nature".
Daydreamed for the realm of sweetness in fine arts during my Taipei tourVincentKwunLeungLee
This is a piece of sharing about my coincidental appreciation on the awarded artworks from the Contemporary Art Biennial at Taipei Fine Arts Museum and the artwork exhibits from the "ART TAIPEI 2016" at World Trade Centre 101. The creative atmosphere of Taiwanese art scene is humanistic, liberal and longsighted. Artists in Taiwan have lots of channels to obtain supports for exhibition and collection opportunities.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune DiseaseHealth Advances
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.

Numbers of people have asked me this question, 'Why don't you just paint the "real" landscape rather than this fictitious space?'

Today, we can easily find people playing with their portable video games when they are on train or on the road. I can judge that those people would get closer with the natural area in video game's world than the one which our bodies can touch with. And although people who play the video games can go through many places in it, their mind of participation in game are bound by the original game rules, thus it is passive in nature. What I am now doing is to set up my own game rule inside the fictitious world. I prefer choosing action games, such as car racing games which require the player to drive fast to compete with others, I will just drive slowly and look for pretty scenery, my works ' Toril', 'Sunflower" and 'The lake' are painted with this rule.

73. Artist: Lee Kai Chung Title: The Lost Roads no.14 Medium: Pigment print Size: 150 x 98 cm Art description A road / passage is defined by the daily behavior and habit of human being, on the other hand, the human existence transcends the merely geographic location and transforms it from "place" into "space". Michel de Certeau first creates the term "Narrative action", which relates to the human behavior that can generate stories. He claims that is a practice of organizing and developing space effectively, in the sense that it rephrases the "place" in a particular time frame and makes it relational. In the past thirty years, the Hong Kong government has been pruning over 300 roads in the record of Highways department, the official reason is large scale construction projects, including domestic housing and commercial buildings. The post-colonial city planning forces the "space" to push away history, as a result, stories are lost, and consequently human behavior is restrained by the stereotype of metropolitan city. "The Lost Roads" is a series of photographs, in which I document the lost roads sites, and present the relationship between the missing and existing stories. The non-durable quality of the photographs enhances the idea of this piece as a city monument. Artist bio Born and raised in Hong Kong, Lee was graduated in BA Fine Arts from the Chinese University of Hong Kong. He is fascinated by the relationship of time, space and human beings. His recent photography project, The Lost Roads, is about the physical, social and contextual transformation of space, and he further investigate how local inhabitants react to the gradual change of the post-colonial government policy. The sequence of his project work involves scrupulous planning, research and execution, and yet he does not reject randomness and chance encounter throughout the art making process. He is currently working on mockumentary project, Unwelcome Visitors, which is about the history of his home and some unseen visitors that he has been living with him since he was born.

75. Artist: Lai Wai Lam Title: Three Long and Two Short Medium: Acrylic, chinese ink on canvas Size: 100 X 70 cm Art description "Three Long and Two Short" is actually a direct English translation of a Chinese idiom which means "accident". In the picture, five animals are painted honestly in a realistic style which is combined by Chinese delineative painting and western painting skill where with a contrast of three beasts (strength) and two innocent animals(weakness). It is to think about what if or if two different cultures or simply languages can talk at the same time as the title of the painting, to a person who does not understand this idiom, can only be a visual image. A plain white color applied on the background is a kind of space left for one's imagination which is actually one of the Chinese philosophy. Artist bio I am a normal person just interested in drawing. I enjoy doing Chinese and western art which bring me to a peaceful place where I have unlimited time to think about life and to talk to nature. I always dream to live and play with wild animals while somehow I think human is foolish. The world of art let me breathe freely and think deeper, that is why I am living in it.
