To celebrate our inaugural partnership with the Asian Art Museum, Arion Press is proud to present a unique pop-up exhibition in the atrium of our Presidio workshop centering on the work of artist Lam Tung Pang.

This exhibition centers around Arion’s limited-edition collaboration with Lam, a novel interpretation of the artist’s monumental “Past Continuous Tense” installation currently on view at the Asian Art Museum. The book features a companion poem especially commissioned for the project from Pulitzer-Prize winning writer, Forrest Gander.

To further mark this special occasion, Arion has produced a four-color relief print of the artist’s drawing “We Need Sun & Books” which will be on view along with a selection of works ranging from drawings, prints, video, and found objects, and reflect the artist’s experiences during the social turbulence in Hong Kong during 2019, followed by the COVID-19 pandemic.
