Wandering Spirit is a richly illustrated publication to accompany the exhibition "Wandering Spirit: Lyrical Landscapes by Li Xubai" held at the University Museum and Art Gallery from 20 March to 12 May 2013, featuring 85 contemporary landscape paintings (dating from 1999 to 2012) by the Fuzhou-born painter and poet Li Xubai (b. 1940).

This catalogue accompanies the exhibition at The University Museum and Art Gallery of HKU presents an exhibition featuring early paintings by the pioneering Hong Kong artist, Hon Chi-fun (b. 1922). The focus is a group of oil paintings dating to the late 1950s that the museum acquired in 1998. Hon is best known for his work as an abstract artist in acrylic and mixed media. This catalogue looks at the foundations of his later abstract practice through his early landscapes executed in oil on board, and a selection of calligraphic works and ink stones. Hon has a unique calligraphic style, and a deeply poetic sensibility.

This publication accompanies the University Museum's exhibition of more than 80 Icelandic paintings, sculptures and drawings from the collection of Mr Anthony J. Hardy. Historically reminiscent of the painterly traditions of the Nordic School of Scandinavia, Icelandic artists departed from the well-established parameters of northern European sea- and landscape painting during the 20th century. Although many of the best-known local painters were trained in Denmark-a larger neighbouring country with an established art school and cultural scene-they developed with time a more distinctive Icelandic style influenced by the local terrain, mythology and folklore. This retrospective of select Icelandic painters documents a century of continuous creative emancipation as well as a constant documenting engagement with the island's community, nature, beauty and vastness.
