Andy Lau's art draws celebrity support

Bak Sheut-sin, a 93-year-old former Chinese opera actress in China and Hong Kong, made a surprise visit to Cantopop star Andy Lau's modern art exhibition on Friday - 1/x Andy Lau x Art Exhibition - at West Kowloon Cultural District.

It is the first time Lau has personally created and collaborated with contemporary artists from different fields to express his thoughts and feelings through various mediums.

They are Huang Yulong, Lin Yusi, Stickyline - a team of Soilworm Lai and Mic Leong - and Xu Zhuoer.

Apart from art enthusiasts and fans, there are numerous artists visiting to support Lau. Supporting Lau are big names like Bak, Macau billionaire businesswoman Angela Leong On-kei, singer Hacken Lee, actors Gordon Lam Ka-tung and Philip Keung Ho-man and film director Vincent Kok Tak-chiu.

Bak and producer Joe Chan Sinn-gi were among the first to visit the exhibit.

Lau is "joining hands with other artists, giving himself and others an opportunity to show their creativity," Chan said.
