Gallery label
No Chinese graphic designers, whether from the mainland or from Hong Kong, are more aware of the value of design as a problem-solving activity than Alan Chan. This awareness has led to great commercial success. During trips to the mainland to teach, Chan reminds design students that good design is not only pure artistic expression, but essential for daily life - functional like chopsticks.(2009)
