    (WKCD) Development M+ in West Kowloon Cultural District

    WKCD-546 Legislative Council Subcommittee on West Kowloon Cultural District (WKCD) Development M+ in West Kowloon Cultural District Purpose This paper seeks to give a full account of the proposal to develop a forward-looking cultural institution with museum functions - M+ as a core arts and cultural facility in the West Kowloon Cultural District (“WKCD”). Background 2. In September 2003, the Government launched the “Invitation for Proposals” (“IFP”) for developing WKCD as a world-class arts, cultural, entertainment and commercial district. The IFP had specified a cluster of four museums with four themes (moving image, modern art, ink and design) commanding a total Net Operating Floor Area (“NOFA”) of at least 75 000 m², and an art exhibition centre as Mandatory Requirements of the project. 3. After the IFP for WKCD was discontinued, the Government appointed the Museums Advisory Group (“MAG”) under the Consultative Committee on Core Arts and Cultural Facilities of WKCD in April 2006 to advise on the need for the four museums previously proposed and their preferred themes, the need to include museums with other themes, the scale and major requirements of each museum and the need for and major specifications of the Art Exhibition Centre. MAG’s deliberations process 4. The MAG conducted a public consultation exercise from mid-May to mid-June 2006 to solicit views on the proposed museum in WKCD. During the period, two open public forums, one focus group meeting and three presentation hearings were held apart from wide publicity arranged through advertisements, radio announcements, press release and invitation letters. 28 written submissions and 30 views were received during the consultation period.

Our consultant conservation architect Mr Ken Borthwick has written a detailed assessment of this proposed scheme and the paper is attached herewith for your consideration. In his assessment (which closely examines aspects of WSD's HIA) Mr Borthwick looks at the original positioning of Flagstaff House on the crest of the slope, as well as at what he assesses to be its original grounds based on historical plans and early pictures of Flagstaff House in the HIA. He has made an assessment of an historic, rubble stone, fortified defensive wall with loopholes for firing through, which he opines may be the earliest example of British military fortification surviving in Hong Kong and a vital piece of historic evidence. WSD's HIA totally fails to identify this feature for what it is, nor assess its historical and cultural importance.

Tsang Tai Uk (曾大屋, literally the Big Mansion of the Tsang Family) is also Historical called Shan Ha Wai (山廈圍, literally, Walled Village at the Foothill). Its Interest construction was started in 1847 and completed in 1867. Measuring 45 metres by 137 metres, it was built by Tsang Koon-man (曾貫萬, 1808-1894), nicknamed Tsang Sam-li (曾三利), who was a Hakka (客家) originated from Wuhua (五華) of Guangdong (廣東) province which was famous for producing masons. He came to Hong Kong from Wuhua working as a quarryman at the age of 16 in Cha Kwo Ling (茶果嶺) and Shaukiwan (筲箕灣). He set up his quarry business in Shaukiwan having his shop called Sam Lee Quarry (三利石行). Due to the large demand for building stone when Hong Kong was developed as a city since it became a ceded territory of Britain in 1841, he made huge profit. He bought land in Sha Tin from the Tsangs and built the village. The completed village accommodated around 100 residential units for his family and descendents. It was a shelter of some 500 refugees during the Second World War and the name of Tsang Tai Uk has since been adopted. The sizable and huge fortified village is a typical Hakka three-hall-four-row Architectural (三堂四横) walled village. It is in a Qing (清) vernacular design having a Merit symmetrical layout with the main entrance, entrance hall, middle hall and main hall at the central axis.

    Public Ecologies of Art Finding the Missing Link for the Successful Promotion of Cultural Tourism in Hong Kong – a Comparative Study of the Hong Kong Museum of Art and the Macau Museum of Art Made in Japan -The Great Odalisque 1964 （Martial Raysse） Yeung May Yee, Mimi On 23 November 2006, the Museums Advisory Group (MAG) of the Consultative Committee on the Core Art and Cultural Facilities of the West Kowloon Cultural District (WKCD) submitted a report on its recommendations on museum facilities in the West Kowloon Cultural District, after having conducted a detailed study of 10 world class museums overseas. The Advisory Group recommended the setting up of a new and forwarding-looking cultural institution in WKCD, whose objectives are to study, promote and showcase the visual culture of the 20th and the 21st centuries from a ‘Hong Kong perspective’ and a ‘now perspective’, coupled with a global vision.1 The institution to be set up 1 Press Release, WKCD Museums Advisory Group makes innovative recommendations, Hong Kong 1 Public Ecologies of Art ‘M+’ (Museum Plus) would consist of four initial broad groupings: ‘Design’, ‘Moving Image’, ‘Popular Culture’ and ‘Visual Art’ (including ink art). M+ will study and showcase visual culture in an unorthodox manner, encourage interaction and pro-actively establish a platform for dialogues with audience. It will also facilitate research and education. Its facilities will include exhibition space, a dedicated outreach and education centre, a library cum archive, bookstore, screening facilities as well as artists-in-residence studios. As one of the four proposed museum themes of M+, namely visual art, overlaps with the main theme of the Hong Kong Museum of Art (HKMA), its establishment will likely compete or even eclipse HKMA in areas like funding, quality of exhibits and patronage.

Background 2. At the last meeting held on 15 May 2006, Members requested for information on the number of visitors, existing collection items and financial information of the museums under LCSD in order to facilitate the study of museums facilities in the West Kowloon Cultural District (WKCD). Detailed of these information are summarized below for Member’s reference. Page 1 Number of Visitors 3.

    Recreation, Sport and the Arts

    367 Chapter 19 Recreation, Sport and the Arts Hong Kong is well known for its hard- working people, but it is not an all-work- no-play city. People spend time in a wide variety of recreational, sport and cultural activities, ranging from ‘tai chi’ to yoga, football to rugby, and international arts festivals to home-grown performances. Hong Kong offers many opportunities for people to unwind. Recreation, sport and the arts provide an opportunity for people in Hong Kong to improve their quality of life. The Government helps to nurture an environment in which creative freedom, a pluralist approach to the development of the arts, sporting excellence and recreation can thrive. Government policies on matters concerning sport, recreation, culture and heritage are coordinated by the Home Affairs Bureau. Organisations that help to draw up these policies include the Hong Kong Sports Commission, the Hong Kong Sports Institute, the former Culture and Heritage Commission, the Hong Kong Arts Development Council and the Antiquities Advisory Board. The Hong Kong Sports Institute Limited was set up as a delivery agent to help develop sports in Hong Kong with special emphasis on training athletes for high- performance sports. In January 2005, the Government established the Sports Commission to advise on all matters related to sports development. The commission oversees the Elite Sports Committee, the Major Sports Events Committee and the Community Sports Committee which give advice on different aspects of sporting activities. The new advisory structure is a milestone for sports development in Hong Kong. The Leisure and Cultural Services Department (LCSD), an executive arm of the Home Affairs Bureau, provides leisure and cultural services to the community, preserves its cultural heritage, beautifies its physical environment, and fosters synergy among sports, cultural and community organisations.
