JCNAP 賽馬會藝壇新勢力

藝術滋養城市，香港藝術發展局(藝發局)珍視本地藝術，不遺餘力地培育創意人才，近年積極向國際藝壇引介優秀的香港藝術家，展出作品媒介及風格多樣，於海外各大藝術節及展演平台綻放異彩。
過去數年在藝發局的推動下，香港藝術家足跡踏遍韓國首爾表演藝術博覽會、釜山國際舞蹈博覽會、光州雙年展、德國杜塞爾多夫國際舞蹈博覽會、澳洲阿德萊德澳亞藝術節、中國深圳當代戲劇雙年展、台北關渡藝術節、英國倫敦「香港音樂系列」等，讓海外同業以至普羅觀眾有機會欣賞到香港引以為傲的藝術精萃。

有賴香港賽馬會慈善信託基金的捐助支持，這些踏足國際藝壇的藝術節目本年度載譽歸來，回饋本地觀眾。第二屆「賽馬會藝壇新勢力」將呈獻共十個節目，形式涵蓋音樂、劇場演出、戲曲、多媒體藝術展覽及當代舞，皆是生於斯長於斯的藝術家為我城譜下的情書。

此外，為了與不同社群分享藝術所帶來的喜悅，藝術團體將與社福、學界及商界合作，額外籌劃超過150多節形式多元的社區和學校活動。藝術與生活由此融匯。

由2018年9月至2019年1月，12個完成海外旅程的精英創作單位回航我城，接力呈獻本地藝術創作。參與是次豐盛多元的活動，投入你的藝術時刻，飽覽不一樣的城市風景！



Hong Kong Arts Development Council (HKADC) cherishes the unique beauty of local arts and is devoted to the cultivation of creative talents. In recent years, HKADC has taken an active role in introducing outstanding local artists to the global art scene. With their diversified media and styles, the artists’ works shone at overseas arts festivals.

With the support of HKADC over the past few years, Hong Kong artists have showcased their works in the Performing Arts Market in Seoul (PAMS), Busan International Dance Market (BIDAM), Gwangju Biennale in Korea, internationale tanzmesse nrw in Düsseldorf, Germany, OzAsia Festival in Adelaide, Australia, Shenzhen Contemporary Theatre Biennale in China, Kuandu Arts Festival in Taipei and Hong Kong Music Series in London, United Kingdom. These international events allow overseas audience practitioners as well as the general public to enjoy the finest works of art that are proudly created in Hong Kong.

Funded by The Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust, these critically acclaimed works are returning to their birthplace, where they will be presented to the local audience at the second JOCKEY CLUB New Arts Power. The upcoming arts festival consists of 10 programmes, including music, theatre, xiqu, multimedia arts and contemporary dance. The artists, born and raised in Hong Kong, see their works as a means to communicate and correspond with their hometown.

Apart from the original shows, the art groups in collaboration with the social welfare, academic and commercial sectors, will also put together over 150 community and school programmes, spreading the joy of art to people from different communities, and allowing art and life to enrich one another.

Returning from their overseas tours, 12 local creative units will take turns to present their best works from September 2018 to January 2019. Engage in your artistic moments by joining the Festival, and indulge in this extraordinary cityscape!
