BAND  TO SPICE UP CANTO-POP SCENE

Indie band Gayamyan will pay tribute to golden hits from the 1980s and '90s at their  concerts from Friday until September 18 at 8pm at the Hong Kong Arts Centre's Shouson Theatre.

Gayamyan are a four-piece band led by singer Cedric Chan Ho-fung, who has impressed audiences with his performance in the theatre series, East Wing West Wing.

In this month's concerts, he will sing a  Canto-pop medley, spicing up the easy-to-listen-to tunes with elements of jazz and rock.

Through their performances, the band hopes to inject new energy to the local Canto-pop scene.

Tickets at $150 and $250 are available from Urbtix on 2734 9009.

ART COMBINES PAST AND PRESENT

The art exhibition Recalling the Present showcases photography, video art and mixed-media work by five visual artists from Hong Kong, Italy and Singapore.

Their projects explore the concept of the past and the present through real-life experiences.

For example, Singaporean artist Heng Yew Seng's photographs are based on common body gestures that we see in daily life.

The exhibition runs until September 29 at White Tube, Hong Kong Arts Centre. Admission is free (10am to 8pm).

For more information, call 2582 0200.
