HKETO, Brussels supports Hong Kong Ballet's innovation and cross-cultural collaboration at Biennale Danza 2025
The Hong Kong Economic and Trade Office in Brussels (HKETO, Brussels) supported the world premiere of "Wayne McGregor: On The Other Earth" at Biennale Danza 2025, as well as the opening reception "Pulse of the Pearl: Transcending Avant-Garde with Technology and Knowledge Transfer" on July 21 (Venice time) in Venice.
The world's first post-cinematic choreographic installation co-created by Hong Kong Baptist University, Hong Kong Ballet and Studio Wayne McGregor, "Wayne McGregor: On The Other Earth" blended live performance with cutting-edge digital art.
Speaking at the reception, the Deputy Representative of HKETO, Brussels, Miss Fiona Li said that the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government has set a clear vision to position Hong Kong as an East-meets-West centre for international cultural exchanges and is committed to nurturing a diverse talent pool, enriching arts and creative content, and fostering a dynamic and inclusive cultural ecosystem.
She said, "Art does not thrive through government efforts alone. It requires the passion, dedication, and creativity of committed partners, individuals and institutions who believe in its transformative power. The installation is a powerful testament to Hong Kong's creative spirit and its relentless drive to push boundaries, where artistic excellence, technological innovation, and global collaboration converge."
Guests were also invited to visit Hong Kong to explore its rich and multifaceted cultural landscape.
