Abstract:
This exhibition was a collaborative project between The Fan Museum and Hong Kong-based author, collector and philanthropist, Edwin Mok. A mutual admiration for the art and craft of Chinese fans recently led to the kindling of a friendship between The Fan Museum's founder and Mr Mok. Following several animated discussions, it was agreed that an exhibition showcasing the very best of Chinese export fan design was, quite simply, a must! The Museum's rich collection of Chinese export fans will be augmented with highlights from the Edrina Collection alongside porcelain and lacquerware lent by the Oriental Museum, Durham. This landscape format catalogue includes a fascinating foreword by the museum?s director, Helene Alexander, along with information about each of the exquisite objects on display in the exhibition. It is decorated with high quality images of each and every fan and serves as a great souvenir for this unique exhibition. Exhibition: The Fan Museum, London, UK (2015).
