藝術家選集 # 2: 鮑藹倫

Ellen Pau (born in Hong Kong in 1961) is one of the earliest pioneering video artists in Hong Kong. Beyond artistic creation, she is known for her influential contributions to the development of video and media arts in the region, through the founding of several important initiatives, including the city’s oldest video artist collective and archive for media art, Videotage, in 1986. Pau also founded Microwave International New Media Arts Festival in 1996. She has collaborated with Zuni Icosahedron since the 80s and began her interest in exploring performative video and choreographic gesture in her video works.  Her works have been exhibited locally and worldwide in film festivals and art exhibitions. In 2001, Recycling Cinema, one of her most significant video installations, was presented at the Hong Kong Pavilion in the 49th Venice Biennale.
