Garden Art

Two famed water lily paintings by French Impressionist Claude Monet go on display in Hong Kong from Friday in a free exhibition highlighting East-West cultural exchange. Titled “Blooming: the Art of Garden in East and West”, the show features more than 100 exhibits from the Art Institute of Chicago, Beijing’s Palace Museum, the Palace of Versailles and the Hong Kong Museum of Art. Museum director Maria Mok Kar-wing said it reflects the museum's diverse Hong Kong identity.
