Hong Kong * An Exclusive Evening of Grand Cru Wine & Architecture * Thursday 5 June 2025 (Partner event)
2025-06-05 19:00 - 22:00 (Asia/Shanghai)
CFI special offer by our member Elaine Lau!
Elaine Lau: “Staying connected with the French community is really important to me” – Club France International
**
I’m pleased to share Carnation Capital’s next private wine dinner event!
I would like to invite you to a truly distinctive evening that goes beyond the traditional wine tasting—celebrating not just the acclaimed Le Dôme Saint-Émilion Grand Cru, but the visionary winery that defines its identity. Designed by Foster + Partners (architects behind Hong Kong International Airport, the HSBC Building, and Château Margaux), this architectural masterpiece is the only winery of its kind in Bordeaux’s Right Bank, blending cutting-edge design with the soul of Grand Cru terroir.
Please find attached your exclusive invitation !
Highlights of the Evening
– Experience the power and precision of Le Dôme, a cult wine that commands attention for its bold expression of Saint-Émilion’s finest terroir, presented by Jack Maltus, from the family behind this iconic label.
– Delve into the story of the Foster + Partners-designed winery, where architecture meets viticulture – offering rare insights into how design shapes the very essence of wine – presented by Colin Ward, Senior Partner of Foster + Partners Hong Kong
Why This Event is Unique
This is not just a winemaker dinner—it’s a dialogue between two crafts: the architect’s mastery of space and the winemaker’s mastery of terroir. Just as Le Dôme’s winery redefines Bordeaux’s winemaking landscape, this evening reimagines the wine-tasting experience, drawing compelling parallels between site constraints and soil composition, structure and vintage, innovation and tradition.
Event Details
? Date: Thursday, 5th June
⏰ Time: 7:00 PM (welcome drink) | 7:30 PM (dinner begins)
? Location: Zhejian Heen (one-Michelin star), 1st Floor, 300 Lockhart Road, Wan Chai
? Ticket Price: HKD2,180 (includes a wine-paired 9 course dinner and a bottle of wine from Le Dôme’s portfolio to take home)
✅ CFI Members reduced price HKD1950 ?
With limited places available, this is an exclusive opportunity for collectors, connoisseurs, and design enthusiasts to engage in a conversation as refined as the wine itself.
RSVP : Please let me know if you would like to attend by Thursday 29th May end of day.
I look forward to sharing this unparalleled experience with you.
Cheers ?

Guangzhou * "SURREALITY" exhibition * 26-27 June 2025
2025-06-26 - 2025-06-27
Yannie, Art Director at CFI, invites you to visit the “SURREALITY” exhibition together. The exhibition is based on mixed reality (MR) human-computer interaction technologies, spatial computing, and AI. Featuring over 40 international artists (including French artists), it extensively incorporates artificial intelligence as a creative tool, with artworks displayed in multidimensional spaces through extended reality technologies. The forum segment brings together domestic and international artists and technical experts to discuss the future prospects of the metaverse and the infinite possibilities of “tech + art.”
This event is supported by the French Consulate General and is free of charge. Everyone is welcome to participate! You can scan the QR code above to register and obtain campus entry permission.
For any artistic collaboration or to learn more about CFI’s art-related news, feel free to contact Yannie from CFI by scanning the QR code.
Event Time & Location

Opening Ceremony: June 26 (morning), HKUST (Guangzhou) Student Activity Center, C2-102
Exhibition: June 26 – August 26, HKUST (Guangzhou) Student Activity Center, C2-103 & Campus
Academic Forums (Lectures & Seminars): June 26-27, HKUST (Guangzhou), Conference Room C

For more details, contact Yannie (WeChat: Panini_Paris).

This exhibition, titled SURREALITY, aims to explore the boundaries between reality and virtuality, and to present a “surreal glimpse” between narrative futures and technological imagination through artistic expressions. The exhibited works cover various forms of digital art created by artificial intelligence, integrating augmented reality technology to enable virtual artworks to deeply overlap and seamlessly merge with the real campus environment, creating an immersive feast of technology and art. During the exhibition, visitors will experience complex and dynamic interactions between reality and virtuality, space and data.
The exhibition relies on the independent basic technological systems and platforms developed by the Creative and Computing Research Center (MC2) of the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (Guangzhou). By constructing a mixed-reality human-computer interaction system, it supports multiple interaction modes, achieves dynamic connection between virtual and real spaces, and introduces a new dimension of interaction that transcends traditional spatial and functional limitations. Meanwhile, leveraging multi-sensor fusion SLAM (Synchronous Localization and Mapping) algorithms, it enables high-precision registration of digital content and physical space, supports physical anchoring and real-time tracking of virtual objects, and provides precise spatial perception for large-scale mixed-reality scenes. Additionally, the exhibition is equipped with a large-language-model-based intelligent navigation system. Through a narrative engine built with dynamic knowledge graphs, it enables intelligent Q&A, contextual guidance, and personalized narrative generation—further expanding the intelligence and emotional depth of human-computer interaction to open an immersive, interactive, and intelligent perceptual journey for the public.

Cette exposition, intitulée SURREALITY , vise à explorer les frontières entre réalité et virtuel et à présenter, à travers des formes d’expression artistiques, un “aperçu surréaliste” entre le futur narratif et l’imagination technique. Les œuvres exposées couvrent de nombreuses formes d’art numérique créées par l’intelligence artificielle et intègrent la technologie de la réalité augmentée, ce qui permet aux œuvres d’art virtuelles de se superposer profondément et de se fonder sans faille avec le terrain réel du campus, créant un festin immersif de la technologie et de l’art. Au cours de l’exposition, les spectateurs vivront une interaction complexe et dynamique entre la réalité et le virtuel, l’espace et les données.
Cette exposition s’appuie sur les systèmes et les plateformes technologiques de base développés indépendamment par le Centre de recherche créative de l’univers et de l’informatique (MC2). En construisant un système d’interaction homme-ordinateur de réalité mixte, l’exposition prend en charge de nombreux modes d’interaction, réalise la liaison dynamique entre l’espace virtuel et réel, et apporte une nouvelle dimension d’interaction qui dépasse les limites de l’espace et de la fonction traditionnelles. Dans le même temps, grâce à l’algorithme SLAM (synchronous localisation et construction de cartes) de fusion multi-capteurs, il est possible de réaliser une enregistrement de haute précision du contenu numérique et de l’espace physique, de prendre en charge l’ancrage physique et le suivi en temps réel des objets virtuels, et de fournir une capacité de perception spatiale précise pour les scènes de réalité mixte à grande échelle. En outre, L’exposition est également équipée d’un système de navigation intelligent basé sur un grand modèle langage, Avec un moteur de narration construit à partir d’un diagramme dynamique de connaissances, Réaliser des questions et réponses intelligentes, la présentation contextuelle et la génération de récits personnalisés, Élargir davantage l’intelligence et la profondeur de l’expression émotionnelle de l’interaction homme-machine, Ouvrez un voyage de perception immersif, interactif et intelligent pour le public.

Le vendredi 27 juin 2025
Les voies erronées : réécrire la matière et les souvenirs du futur
Divergences émergentes : Réécrire le matériel et la mémoire du futur
À l’heure où la technologie générative, l’identité pseudo et le temps de rupture se mêlent, comment pouvons-nous récomprendre la façon dont la réalité, la mémoire et la matière sont constituées ?
Ce forum invite des universitaires et des artistes actifs dans le domaine de l’art et de la science et de la technologie à explorer ensemble le processus de création d’une histoire alternative et d’une imagination future. De l’intelligence corporelle à l’esthétique algorithmique aux métaphores mythologiques et aux mécanismes de mémoire de médiation technologique, les intervenants partageront comment ils traversent les frontières entre les “archives” et l’imagination dans leur création, ainsi que les discussions et les possibilités nouvelles qui émergent entre les “médias” et la “matérie”.
