Out of Thin Air: Hong Kong Film Arts & Costumes ExhibitionLeisure and Cultural Services Department, Hong Kong Film Arts Association

Films are a major part of Hong Kong’s popular culture. The Hong Kong films owe their success not only to the directors and actors, but also to the art and costume directors working behind the scenes.

This exhibition aims to document the development of film arts in Hong Kong and showcase the role and importance of art and costume design in film production. Through the display of iconic costumes, props, sets, paraphernalia and scenes of workshops, the exhibition will take visitors into the workplace of those who work behind the scenes for delving into the establishment of the Hong Kong film arts profession, and learning about the nature of the Hong Kong film culture, and the highly adaptable professionalism and creative inclusiveness of film industry workers.
