City Landscapes Common scenes in fleeting time in an urban landscape have been captured, and then transferred and reformulated.

Tim Li Man-Wai Studied in Australia at the age of 17. Degree in architecture, Working at the Housing Department Hong Kong, Chairman of the Para/Site board since 2003: “We constantly look for gaps in the art scene. If I would summarise what we do, it’s trying to fill the gaps. We want holistic growth of the whole art scene, so we’re constantly looking at what other people are doing so we don’t repeat things.” initiatives: an art criticism group; PS magazine; October Contemporary – a festival for young artists to show their stuff; and a curatorial program funded by the Jockey Club, in order to bring sophisticated curatorial practice to Hong Kong. Para/Site is much more than just a gallery, it’s building an organic and dynamic arts community. Later degrees: First MBA, then a JD, working on a PhD in Fine Arts.
