Look: The Graphic Language of Henry Steiner
It celebrates the achievements of VTC Honorary Fellow Henry Steiner’s storied career.

In showing Henry Steiner’s iconic work, we attempt to ask questions that pique your curiosity to look closer, look further and be inspired to continue your journey of creativity.

HKDI × V54 Po Leung Kuk Young Artist in Residence
Eight young student artists from the Department of Communication Design have stayed in V54, and expressed their residence experience through their artworks in various formats.
