Gong hei fat choi! 恭喜发财! "Congratulations and be prosperous" is a traditional new year greeting for the
Chinese, lunar, new year, which will be celebrated this February 14th, and usher in the
Year of the Tiger. Chinese new year is a major holiday celebrated in Chinese and other asian cultures around the world and certainly here in Toronto.
Today we share T.E.S.T. items inpsired by or associated with the 3rd animal in the Chinese zodiac, the tiger, like
minouette's 'Hu: The Tiger' lino block print. If you are in Toronto, you can see this print and others from around the world at the
9th International Print Exhibition and Exchange Celebrating The Chinese Year of the Tiger 2010 from February 10 to March 6th (with Opening, Sunday, February 14th from 2-4), at the PROOF Gallery in the Distillery District (55 Mill Street, Building #74, Studio 104).
