The Rise of the Celestial Empire is another great exhibition that follows in the foot steps of the Tsarskoye Selo exhibition, and transports visitors back in time. This time, it is the golden age of the Han dynasty. The show features a display of 162 ancient artefacts and relics, which showcase the economic growth and… Continue reading Hong Kong Museum of History: The Rise of the Celestial Empire
And another art exhibition. This time, the Affordable Art Fair 2015 - which is still on today, if you want to go (good choice in this rainy weather!). The exhibition is a mix of young and upcoming artists as well as well-established ones that sell prints. It features artists and galleries from around the globe… Continue reading Visit to the Affordable Art Fair 2015
After the highly successful Tsarskoye Selo exhibition, the Hong Kong Museum of History is focusing on the 25th Anniversary of the Promulgation of the Basic Law in Hong Kong. The Basic Law is a mini constitution in the Chinese Special Administrative Region, and was adopted on April 4th 25 years ago and came into effect… Continue reading Hong Kong Museum of History: 25 Years of Basic Law
I was contemplating whether or not to write this post - there are so many Art Basel in Hong Kong articles out there, but then I thought everyone has different views and opinions. My take is that it is a great opportunity to see so many great masters of the 20th and 21st century in… Continue reading My highlights from Art Basel in Hong Kong 2015
I went to Art Basel yesterday - and it was packed with people, galleries and artwork. Compared to Art Central, Art Basel included many more well-known artists and artworks from the greatest artists of the 20th and 21st century, such as Marc Chagall, Miro, Andy Warhol, Keith Haring, Roy Lichtenstein, Fernando Botero and many more.… Continue reading Pictures of pictures at Art Basel in Hong Kong 2015

It is a new contemporary art fair showcasing new talent next to established artists and galleries, and it takes place in a huge tent on the new Central Harbourfront. More than 75 international galleries are taking part and they… Continue reading My highlights from Art Central
One visit to the Pedder Street building provides a lot of input for several blog posts... there are so many galleries in the building, there's always something new to see and discover. This time, my recent visit uncovered a new gallery that I have never visited before: Hanart TZ Gallery. This is one of the… Continue reading Art exhibition: Landscape as Cultural Self-portrait at Hanart TZ Gallery
I've been lucky that I managed to see so many exhibitions in the Pedder Building last week... but I've been unlucky that I've not had enough time to write about them. Again, an interesting exhibition at the Pearl Lam Galleries that I really enjoyed but it already closed its doors (on March 1) so you… Continue reading Art exhibition: Ben Quilty at Pearl Lam Galleries
While I just barely managed to write in time about yesterday's last day of the Vik Muniz exhibition, I clearly missed the boat on the Blackwelder one at the Gagosian Gallery. That happens easily when you have a small baby at home and are busy entertaining overseas visitors! Last week I saw so many great… Continue reading Art exhibition: Blackwelder at the Gagosian Gallery
