Renowned photographer Dr. Leo K. K. Wong recently opened the ”Dr. Leo K. K. Wong’s World of Images – My 60s-70s Hong Kong” exhibition at Hong Kong Times Squares Living Room Museum. The exhibition runs till 1 February, from 10am to 10pm daily. Besides Dr Wong, director of the School of Architecture in CUHK professor Nelson Chen, winners of “Times Square Living Room Museum” competition Marco Wong and Samuel Wong, executive director of Wharf Estates Yen Leng, and famous celebrity Liza Wang were present to inaugurate the premiere exhibition yesterday. The photographer’s passion for Hong Kong and life itself can be deeply felt at the current exhibition, which invites audience to go back in time to a Hong Kong that was blessed with harmony and happiness. Among the fleeting moments captured with delicacy, there are scenes of the Hong Kong expos, public housing estates and billboards that announce aspirations for a better future, snapshots of fields and fishing villages that celebrate peace and tranquillity, and portraits of people at work and children at play that crystallise diligence and blitheness. Dr Wong began studying photography under photographic guru S. F. Dan in 1966, and was honoured with the Bronze Bauhinia Star (BBS) by the HKSAR Government in 2010 in recognition of his zealous promotion of and immense contribution to the art of photography.
