Further details

Harold Wong (1943–2022) was a distinguished connoisseur, collector, advisor, gallerist, and artist, influential in both Hong Kong and the international Chinese art scene. Raised in a cultured family, he studied classical Chinese art under Madam Koo Tsin-yaw. His father, Wong Pao-hsie (1907-1979), a Shanghai native, renowned collector, and a member of the Min Chiu Society, assembled Lok Tsai Hsien, an esteemed collection of classical artworks and calligraphy.
Wong served as the Chairman of the Management Committee and Advisory Committee at the Art Museum of the Chinese University of Hong Kong and was an active Min Chiu Society member. In 1977, he co-founded Hanart Gallery, a key hub for Chinese painting enthusiasts. By 1990, he shifted his focus to his own art practice, collecting, and advisory pursuits.
Harold Wong’s collection, Lechangzai Xuan, was built upon his father’s Lok Tsai Hsien and expanded during the latter decades of the 20th century, reflecting his education, personal taste, and evolving preferences. It encompasses a diverse range of Chinese paintings, with a particular emphasis on the following categories: the Literati Tradition of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, Calligraphy, Mid to Late Qing Paintings, and Modern and Contemporary Ink Paintings.
Harold Wong is fondly remembered in the art world for his kindness, expertise, and generosity in sharing his profound knowledge of Chinese painting. His calligraphic couplets were showcased at the Art Museum of the Chinese University of Hong Kong in 2003, 2007, and 2016, while many of his paintings were featured in the renowned Min Chiu Society exhibition series at the Hong Kong Museum of Art from the 1980s to the 2000s. As a luminary in Chinese art connoisseurship in Hong Kong and beyond, Harold Wong’s legacy as a contemporary literati will be celebrated through his exceptional collection and the profound influence he had on many collectors.
A specially curated online auction of paintings and calligraphy from the Harold Wong collection will be held on 30 April to 14 May, 2025.
