This year, ART HK 12 will showcase contemporary art from 266 galleries representing 38 International territories. Widely acknowledged as an important platform for networking in the international art community, ART HK brings together leading collectors, curators, artists and galleries from across Asia and the rest of the world. The Fair is accompanied by an exciting programme of events showcasing the best that Hong Kong has to offer culturally as well as socially, and an extensive talks programme featuring a world class line-up of speakers.
