Johnson Tsang makes his sculptures from clay or stainless steel. His works are not only a demonstration of the plastic properties of the material, but also a vivid example of the author's remarkable talent and imagination.
Johnson Tsang was born and lives in Hong Kong, has been engaged in sculpture for over twenty years. He has numerous exhibitions not only in his hometown, but also in Taiwan, Korea, Spain and Switzerland. Artworks Johnson Tsang have repeatedly received prestigious awards. The artist does not put the production of his sculptures "on stream", so any of his work, put up for sale, becomes an object of hunting for private collectors.
Ideas for your works Johnson Tsang draws from everyday things. For example, to create a series Bowls of Fantasy he was inspired by the most common bowls used in everyday life. He tried to convey his admiration for their form to the viewer.
Johnson Tsang does not like to indulge in lengthy discussions about his own person and about his works. His position is quite principled: the viewer should look for all the answers not in the artist's words, but in his works. However, from several public statements by D Johnson Tsang it can be concluded that his work is a manifestation of the cultural independence of Hong Kong.
One of the main features of the city's culture is the mixture of eastern and western components. Johnson Tsang protests against frivolous imitation of Western models and insists on the need for a preliminary understanding. He expressed his vision of Hong Kong's unique culture in sculpture Yuanyang II, named after a specific local drink made by mixing coffee and tea with milk. This is how the artist presents us the culture of his hometown as a place of love meeting between East and West. The series of photographs "Architecture of Density" by the German photographer Michael Wulff is also a kind of dedication to the culture of Hong Kong.

Marlene Dietrich and Ernest Hemingway: more than friendship, less than love
The boundaries beyond which friendship between a man and a woman ends and something more begins is very difficult to define. Especially when it comes to creative individuals. Ernest Hemingway called his relationship with Marlene Dietrich "unsynchronized passion": he woke up feelings when she was not free, and vice versa. Their romance lasted almost 30 years - perhaps so long precisely because it remained epistolary (now they would say - virtual). But there was so much passion in these letters that
