THE COLLECTION OF MR. HO CHI NAM

A wholesale supplier of dyes, Mr. Ho Chi Nam (1908-1953) was an avid connoisseur of the arts and resided on Queen's Road Central above his shop. He enjoyed gathering friends together to discuss topics that revolved around art and culture. Later friends recalled that Ho loved most of all to immerse himself in his study and examine his paintings and other objects, gaining much satisfaction in the process.

This selection of Mr. Ho's paintings encompasses 5 classical and 22 modern works, purchased between the 30's and 50's. It includes the works of prominent Lingnan artists Gao Jianfu, Gao Qifeng and Chen Shuren. Ho had close links with the artists in Hong Kong due to his close proximity and passionate interest, and he often invited artists and connoisseurs to get together for gatherings.This collection was treasured and kept by Mr. Ho's family members for nearly sixty years after he passed away at the young age of 45.
