Creative Arts Space in Hong Kong: Three Tales Through the Lens of Cultural Capital
c Creative Arts Space in Hong Kong: Three Tales through the lens of Cultural Capital Hoi Ling Anne CHAN (0000-0002-8356-8069) A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy In Faculty of Architecture, Building and Planning University of Melbourne February 2019 [Intended to leave blank] i Abstract The fact that culture and creativity are often instrumentalised in urban regeneration and/or development points to a pragmatic relationship between culture and the city. Hong Kong, like many post-colonial and post-industrial cities, faced challenges in economic restructuring and in the search of a new identity. Thus, culture came to the centre of the stage in the formulation of development strategies and started to accumulate cultural assets. The accumulation of cultural assets led to the emergence of various forms of cultural assets such as cultural district, infrastructure, projects in order to achieve various aims. However, most of the existing research focused on large-scale flagship projects from an economic or strategic perspective. A holistic understanding of those cultural projects is limited in the literature especially for the small-scale cultural projects. This research examines how the creative arts spaces interact with the host city, Hong Kong through the lens of cultural capital. Three creative arts spaces with different management models are chosen as case studies. Data were collected through field investigation and key informant interviews as well as from secondary sources such as archives and media. The data collected are analysed by executing thematic analysis procedures. The findings reveal that creative arts spaces are different from large-scale flagship projects in their relations to cities. -

What criteria will the Principal Assistant Secretary (WKCD) (PAS(WKCD)) use to assess whether the WKCDA has achieved those objectives? Please list out the criteria used by PAS(WKCD) with regard to each of the objectives provided in the Ordinance.

The work in this regard involves mostly qualitative rather than quantitative assessments as it will be difficult to establish criteria for each objective.

Apart from the annual report required by the Ordinance, how many regular reports does the Home Affairs Bureau (HAB) expect PAS(WKCD) to receive from the WKCDA regarding -
