Join us for a thought-provoking roundtable dedicated to exploring the development of Wang Xin’s ink art. This discussion forms part of the academic program accompanying the ongoing exhibition Reimagining Diamond Pine: Ink Art of Wang Xin at the University Museum and Art Gallery, The University of Hong Kong. Bringing together scholars and experts from a range of disciplines—including archaeology, anthropology, religious studies, the history of Chinese art, painting studies, and material culture—the roundtable offers multi-layered perspectives that deepen our understanding of the artistic vision, contemplative spirit, and meditative inquiry at the heart of Wang Xin’s Reimagining the Diamond Pine.
