For more than five thousand years, silk was an integral part of life in China, composing an illustrious chapter in the history of Chinese civilisation and global cultural interaction. Strong yet soft, silk is woven from the fibre produced by silkworms. Its natural lustre adds to its appeal. China, the birthplace of silk, was known as Serica (State of Silk) by ancient Greeks and Romans, and China remains the world’s largest silk producer today. Sericulture, which includes mulberry cultivation, silkworm breeding, silk reeling, and silk weaving, was a remarkable creation of the ancestors and served as an important step in the origin and development of Chinese civilisation. Silk production has played a key role in the livelihood of the Chinese people, as well as in socioeconomic developments and technological innovation in China.

Silk not only helped connect diverse ethnic groups and vast regions across China but also bridged China and the rest of the world. Silk was a highly sought-after luxury good, as precious as gold, and was also a form of currency that facilitated vibrant exchanges between China and many parts of the world along the trade routes known as the Silk Roads. Silk has made unique contributions to world art: it has been widely used as a support for Chinese paintings and calligraphic works, as a canvas for artistic experiments in colour and decoration, and as a fabric for clothing.

The HKDI Gallery is pleased to announce its first flagship exhibition in its 2025-2026 slate, the Pluriversal Futures – Ars Electronica Exhibition in Collaboration with Hong Kong Design Institute (“Pluriversal Futures”), jointly organised by Ars Electronica, the world’s leading platform of media art for the intersection of art, technology and society based in Linz, and Hong Kong Design Institute (HKDI). The curation presents a reinterpretation of “multiple” and “pluriversal” visions of the future, which entails the coexistence of several worldviews, futures, and realities that are entangled, interconnected, and intertwined.

Venue address: Hong Kong Design Institute, 3 King Ling Road, Tseung Kwan O

The exhibition features a variety of exquisite craftworks that create a crucible for innovation — the convergences between traditional masters’ disciplined techniques and contemporary designers and artists’ forward-thinking visions. Central to this exhibition is the concept of “creative cross-pollination”—a dynamic process where seemingly disparate ideas and techniques, drawn from diverse sources with traces of common ground, are brought together to generate something entirely new.

It brings together five groups of local and international artisans to create five groups of work that transcend boundaries and topple conventions.

Venue address: 11 Peel Street, Central

Zao Wou-Ki: Master Printmaker explores the Chinese-French artist’s life, his prints, and his mastery of abstraction. It sheds new light on Zao’s printmaking practice, introducing the unique aesthetics, techniques, and styles of this medium while investigating the connections between oil painting and printmaking as equally significant aspects of his oeuvre. The exhibition explores how Zao’s printmaking catalysed his experiments in abstraction and considers the role of prints as a visual and conceptual vehicle that facilitated the circulation of his works, positioning him as an eminent cross-cultural figure in the post-war art landscapes of Europe, Asia, and the United States.

Venue address: Main Hall Gallery, G

In traditional Chinese landscape painting, attention is often drawn to the majestic landscape itself. Yet, it is in the scantily described miniature figures that the soul of a landscape painting resides. Playing neither a dominating nor a supplementing role, they encapsulate the painter’s intent and serves as his magic wand that turns the painting into an idealised place for travelling, gazing, roaming and dwelling. Engaging in disparate activities, these figures venture deep into nature, communing with it and giving life and meaning to the painting. Far from random ornaments, they personify the painter besides embodying his musings and inclinations.  

Featuring a fine selection from the Chih Lo Lou Collection, the exhibition zooms in on figures in Chinese landscape paintings to reveal their identities, stories and cultural significance. Following the ink marks as leads, visitors to the exhibition will be able to explore how these tiny beings, reclusive, cynical or otherwise, are transformed into the protagonists of the landscape narratives. 

Venue address: Chih Lo Lou Gallery of Chinese Painting and Calligraphy, 4/F

WMA presents ‘Pollyanna and the Glad Town’, the inaugural commissioned project for its 2025/26 biennial theme ‘Hope’. Hong Kong artist Doris Wong Wai Yin, known for her conceptual practice attuned to everyday experience, ventures into new ground with AI‑generated images alongside performance and video. Rather than resorting to slogan-like declarations, the project probes hope as something far more intricate, authentic and emotionally multifaceted in contemporary society.

The artist introduces the classic children’s literary character Pollyanna－an unwavering optimist who ‘finds the good in everything’－and sends her into the battleground of ‘Glad Town’. Can such a persona remain intact? A series of video and installation works marked by ruptures and a sense of aesthetic excess interrupts our numbness to the digital and physical worlds, prompting us to reflect on the meaning of hope.

“Fish Man and Fish Woman are living among us.” –Ant, Ngai Wing-Lam

Udatsu Sushi Hong Kong is pleased to announce the solo exhibition of Hong Kong based artist Ant, Ngai Wing-Lam, opening on January 23rd, 2026. The exhibition features six pieces of the most recent canvas works and works on paper by the artist.

Channelling the antic spirit of Surrealism with a series of paintings depicting “Fish Men” and “Fish Women” against landscapes of the metropolis, locally born and trained Lam’s work borrows from the physical world and inevitably mirrors the everyday life and thoughts of Hong Kong people. In her new canvases She is Always on Time (2025) and He is Still on His Way (2025), Lam reimagines the Koi-fish headed couple in a world of beautiful muted colours, with its aquamarine blues and greens. Always fascinated by the world of dream, and her pet fish’s dynamism of dream-like swimming, Ngai lends the characters meticulously structured bodies of a horse, offering a new-found sense of stillness and encourages the viewer to revisit the concept of time.

The third exhibition in the "Lingnan Colour" series, titled "Bird-and-Flower Paintings of Jao Tsung-i and the Lingnan Master," sponsored by the Simon Suen Foundation and co-organised by Jao Tsung-I Academy and Sun Museum, will be open to the public tomorrow.

The exhibition features a selection of 10 collaborative works by Professor Jao and four distinguished masters of Lingnan painting: Zhao Shao-ang, Li Xiong-cai, Yang Shan-sum, and Wu Hao. The exhibition showcases themes from nature, including bees, butterflies, dragonflies, leeches, fishes, lotuses, willows, vines, and stones.

Every brushstroke by the artists is infused with the breath of life; the plants exhibit their growth, while the small insects add dynamism, breathing life and energy into the tranquil landscapes. The five masters together weave a vibrant tapestry of nature that showcases the beauty of the natural world imbued with scholarly elegance.

We warmly invite all to visit The Gallery - Hall 2 at Jao Tsung-I Academy to appreciate these artworks and immerse themselves in the charm and depth of this artistic expression, fostering a closer connection with Chinese culture and arts.

Directed by artist Nam June Paik, this experimental video highlights his friendship and creative exchange with a young Ryuichi Sakamoto. It celebrates New York’s vibrant art scene in the 1980s, reflecting the dynamic intersections of artists and musicians within the Fluxus art movement that began in 1960. Through interviews with renowned figures, including Laurie Anderson, John Cage, Charlotte Moorman, and Julian Beck, the work captures these artists’ collaborative spirit, an important mindset that shaped their art and personal relationships.

Found Space, B2

seeing sound, hearing time celebrates the legacy of composer, producer, and artist Ryuichi Sakamoto (Japanese, 1952–2023). Sakamoto is renowned for his award-winning film scores, wide-ranging collaborations, and exploratory spirit. His 2017 album, async, which he described as ‘some of the most personal music I have ever created’, forms the core of async–immersion (2023), a large-scale installation created in collaboration with artist Shiro Takatani (Japanese, born 1963). The work is part of a series of what they call ‘installation music’, in which the album is paired with a three-dimensional representation of the music in a gallery space. Shown as a site-specific installation in The Studio, the work features Takatani’s visual compositions of Sakamoto’s instruments, plants, books, and other objects in his studio, shown on a large LED screen. The images emerge from either side of the screen and dissolve, one pixel at a time, into abstract horizontal lines before regaining their original form. Takatani’s visual interventions are not synchronised with the sound but evolve continuously, creating a parallel time axis within the artwork. The music from async plays through multiple channels in a surround sound system via high-precision speakers, enveloping visitors in an immersive sonic experience.

Blindspot Gallery is pleased to present “Trevor Yeung: swallowing rumination, gracefully”, on view from 24 February to 2 May, 2026, marking his fourth solo exhibition at the gallery. Yeung is known for using aquariums, horticulture, found objects, installations and photographs as cyphers to project his internalized perception of the world. Excavating the logic of natural and artificial ecologies, he orchestrates scenarios that evoke emotional resonance and simulate social dynamics, eliciting viewers to contemplate upon notions of selfhood and intersubjectivity. Coinciding with his Blindspot presentation, Yeung’s first institutional solo exhibition in France, “Garden of the Nine Suns,” will be on view in CAPC Musée d'art Contemporain de Bordeaux from 3 April to 29 September, 2026.

Yeung’s latest exhibition is conceived as a space of introspection for the solitary pensive dweller. Projecting one’s interior world, a thread of sentimentality, desire and vulnerability runs throughout the exhibition, bearing the visceral traces of time and impermanence. It features Yeung’s latest tank, mixed-media and light sculptures, photographs, and new installations composed of rocks and crystals, reflecting the artist as an avid hoarder, and belief systems which serve as comfort during change.

Painter and seal carver Wang Xin was born in Xingtai, Hebei province, in 1964, and graduated from the Chinese Painting Department of the Sichuan Academy of Fine Arts in 1991. He currently lives in Beijing, where he teaches Master of Fine Arts students at the Communication University of China. This unprecedented exhibition of his paintings of pine trees offers specific insights into his philosophical mindset and, more specifically, the Buddhist influence of the Diamond Sutra (Vajracchedikā Prajñāpāramitā Sūtra).

The artist’s large compositions combine finely rendered ink drawings of rocks and trees with excerpts from the Diamond Sutra. Reminiscent of Wang’s daily religious practice and study of the text, the sutra’s philosophy influences his compositional choices and defines how Buddhist concepts affect his use of space. A pivotal Mahayana Buddhist scripture, the Diamond Sutra is a core text in the Perfection of Wisdom (Prajñāpāramitā) tradition. Through a dialogue between the Buddha and Subhūti—one of the Buddha’s ten principal disciples, foremost in “dwelling in peace”—it teaches that reality is illusory and empty, revealing profound insights on non-self (anātman) and liberation through non-attachment, impermanence, and emptiness.

Tai Kwun Contemporary presents Stay Connected: Supplying the Globe, the second chapter of Stay Connected: Art and China Since 2008. More than 70 artworks from over 40 participating artists re-examine China’s role as the world’s centre for the production and logistics that sustain modern life. They give insights into the individual stories, family histories, and lesser-seen places impacted by globalisation and by China’s unprecedented economic growth in recent decades. 

The artworks in Supplying the Globe are presented in four thematic sections that highlight subjects including ecological footprints, depictions of labour (including artistic work), networks of exchange, and the global realignments brought by the transnational flows of people, materials, and ideas. 

Throughout the exhibition period, Tai Kwun Contemporary will hold cross-disciplinary activities, including a symposium, curatorial talks, and the launch of a companion publication produced in collaboration with Asia Art Archive. 

Alisan Atelier is delighted to present Wandering Mindscape, the debut Hong Kong solo exhibition of emerging contemporary artist Zhang Xiaoli. Opening on 28 February 2026, the reception inaugurates the year-long celebration of Alisan Fine Arts’ 45th anniversary.

Featuring about a dozen recent works, the exhibition showcases Zhang’s meticulous fine painting technique (gongbi) in landscapes set within surreal and imagined spaces. Her compositions incorporate playful game-related motifs, including her well-known Lego and Boxseries, alongside references to chess, the Rubik’s Cube, and labyrinths. Together, her work reframes of the classical literati pursuit of 'wandering in the mind,' echoing the gallery’s anniversary theme, 'Then and Now'.

Light isn't always in the distance. Sometimes, it's discovered in the very moment we are willing to look up. Just like the starry night sky—only by gazing upward can we encounter the beauty of a sky full of stars.

This solo exhibition is titled The Light Seekers. I have always believed that within everyone's heart lies a unique, personal light. Sometimes, however, it is obscured by the clamor of daily life, buried under unease and weariness, and we forget that we ourselves are inherently capable of shining brightly.

Revolving around the theme of "The Light Seekers," I have given considerable thought to composition and color in each piece. Every composition aims to convey a warm and hopeful message. The tranquility within the frames is enough to settle the mind, while the color palette adopts a more classical and softened harmony, enveloping the overall atmosphere as if in a gentle radiance. These seemingly still and quiet scenes are, in truth, quietly moving toward the light.

Opening Reception: 2026.03.14 (Sat) 3-6pm

Soluna Fine Art is proud to present Layers to Essence by Korean contemporary artist Seungtaik Jang, his first solo exhibition in Hong Kong. The exhibition centers on the artist’s signature Layered Painting series, reflecting his ongoing exploration of color, process, and the very nature of painting. By focusing on color, the most basic yet fundamental element of painting, Jang investigates what painting can be beyond representation. The light that emerges between layers exists as both material and perception, guiding viewers to uncover the essence of painting through the quiet intensity of layered color.

Opening Reception: 5 March (Thur) 6 - 8 pm

Gallery address:  G/F, 52 Sai Street, Sheung Wan

In the solo exhibition ‘Being Within Forms’, Lee Sum Yi poses profound questions regarding existence and connection. Cement is treated not merely as a material for urban infrastructure but as a tangible vessel for the artist’s sensibility, exploring the delicate tensions that bind the individual, the collective, and society. Thought inhabits shifting states, flowing between self-reflection and the external relations, contemplating emotional awareness and the practice of relating within this one, fleeting life.

Chantal Fok graduated with a Master of Arts in Buddhist Studies from the University of Hong Kong and a Master of Arts in Fine Arts from the Chinese University of Hong Kong, receiving a First Class Honours Bachelor's degree in 2014. Passionate about the history and art of Tibetan Buddhism, she traveled to Shangri-La to study Regong Thangka and visited Nepal to explore Thangka art in different regions. For many years, she has delved into the knowledge of meticulous brushwork painting and combined it with traditional Thangka techniques, creating a new perspective for exploring the inner self through the collision of these two artistic concepts.

Her works blend the coloring, structure, and conception of meticulous brushwork painting and Thangka, characterized by delicate brushstrokes and soft colors. Her works often feature natural landscapes, flowers, mountains, and spiritual imagery. Through rigorous composition, she creates a solemn and tranquil atmosphere, depicting not only the beauty of the external world but also guiding viewers into inner peace and awareness. Her works have been exhibited in numerous group and solo exhibitions and are held in private collections both locally and overseas. In 2016, she founded the "Tibetan Shambhala" studio and has been actively promoting Thangka art ever since.

The Daytime Dance Club takes as its starting point the artist‘s memory of picking something up for her father from a dance club. By day, In the early morning, the venue offers neither a rhythm to latch onto nor swaying bodies, its ornate wall fixtures and lights appear somewhat desolate, shrouded in an ambiguous atmosphere unique to states of transition. In this exhibition, through the mediums of pencil drawing, video, and readymade installation, Mindy LUI cultivates a ritualistic yet detached tone, pointing toward an experience of that which ‘never truly existed, yet is already seeming disappeared.’

Opening: 2026 MAR 7 | 5 – 8 p.m.

Art Perspective and LIS10 Gallery Hong Kong are pleased to present Ritual Lines, a two-person exhibition bringing together Dr Esther Mahlangu and Foster Sakyiamah. Across generations and distinct cultural contexts, the exhibition approaches line and pattern as a system of meaning—a way to transmit knowledge, hold memory, and activate the painted surface as a lived, embodied space.

For Dr Esther Mahlangu, line operates as language: precise, radiant, and inherited. Rooted in the visual traditions of isiNdebele painting, she carries a living vocabulary of geometry, symmetry, and colour into contemporary formats—extending cultural codes beyond the architecture of the home and into today’s global art conversation.

In Foster Sakyiamah’s paintings, line becomes atmosphere: an interlacing field of curved strokes that generates rhythm, depth, and vibration. Based in Accra, Ghana, Sakyiamah is known for vivid palettes and distinctive curved linear patterning, where figures emerge through—and at times merge with—a pulsing ground, transforming everyday scenes into images charged with movement and presence.

“Profound Impressions: The Art of Liu Chunjie's Original Plates and Prints" is the first print-focused exhibition since the museum's relocation, following the 2017 exhibition "Evolving Images: Modern Hong Kong Printmaking." It is also this year's "Sun Delight" programme. Titled "Profound Impressions", the exhibition alludes both to the force embedded in every carved mark on the woodblock, and to the artist's deep contemplation and relentless exploration into the essence of art. Sun Museum aims to offer audiences in Hong Kong — a tropical coastal city in southern China — a chance to experience the vastly different northern landscapes and rural scenery, as well as the pure, serene, lyrical, and passionate beauty of the black soil of the north, expressed through the artist's bold style.

Venue address: G/F & 1/F, Artisan House, 1 Sai Yuen Lane, Sai Ying Pun

Artist Jay Lau, an artist-in-residence at the Hong Kong Visual Arts Centre (vA!), drew inspiration from the history of Victoria Barracks – the former site of Hong Kong Park. Beginning with Cassels Block, a Grade I historic building that now houses vA!, he constructed a parallel reality in which its long-lost "twin" building, Birdwood Block, had never been demolished.

The exhibition employs "incising" as a method to probe historical archives and images, transforming their cracks into new narratives. Drawing on archival photos of the old barracks as a foundation, Lau applied image-editing software and AI generation technology to fabricate scenes of Birdwood Block across various timeframes, transforming them into a series of prints and installations dispersed throughout vA!'s space. This invites visitors on a journey to rediscover the forgotten past of this historic building, to imagine the infinite possibilities at pivotal moments in history, and to provoke reflection on the nature of historical truth.

Contemporary by Angela Li is excited to present solo exhibition of Chan King Long, Ken, “What Hums in the Rain”, featuring his latest series of works. 

“We must let go of our fixations on the apparent, release our senses, so that we may hear the whispering hum buried within the backdrop of wind and rain. That is not noise, but the true essence of life." — Chan King Long, Ken  

The world is a reckless vehicle hurtling forward, while time is a torrent that dilutes ourperception. Beneath the endless rain, the contours of everything dissolve into obscurity. In times of generational transformation, culture and values often collide, creating sparks, while also leaving behind waves of dispute that slowly accumulate in our subconscious as love, hatred, understanding and regret. The voices of society ebb and flow, pulling our attention from all around until we gradually grow numb and disoriented.

Opening reception: 5-8 pm on Thursday, 12 March, with the artist present.

JCCAC is proud to present its annual exhibition for the month of arts in March — 'Le nid, La coquille'. Once again, it is a parallel exhibition to Art Basel Hong Kong, inviting you to enter a world of 'Le nid, La coquille', and experience how artists use the language of art to reveal the subtle relationship between their inner selves and creative spaces.

Building on the concept of JCCAC's 'Mini Index' series, artists will continue to showcase a dialogue between old and new works! Curated by the JCCAC team, with new energy injected by curatorial assistant Van Se, this year's exhibition theme — 'Le nid, La coquille' — explores how artists create their own worlds between their creations and experiences, through the lenses of space and inner emotions.

The exhibition brings together works from 11 artists-in-residence, spanning across various fields including painting, ink wash painting, illustration, printmaking, installation, mixed media, and new media. Each piece is like a cozy 'nest' or a layer of 'shell' that hides memories, while also reflecting the vibrant and diverse artistic energy nurtured by JCCAC.

There is also a supplementary exhibition, 'The Private Collection of Le nid, La coquille', which showcases the artists' personal and private collections. Perhaps one of these pieces will inspire you to take it home.

SC Gallery is pleased to present Singaporean artist duo Chow and Lin's first solo exhibition in Hong Kong. This exhibition features a curated selection of artworks from their internationally acclaimed, long-running project, “The Poverty Line” (2010 - present). It includes images from earlier global case studies alongside new work created in Hong Kong last December. By combining economic sociology with photographic typologies of food, Chow and Lin engage with global issues of poverty, inequality, and food systems through contemporary realism and research-based practice. Their works are in the permanent collections of institutions such as MoMA and the China Central Academy of Fine Arts Museum, and their book “The Poverty Line” is in the collections of the MoMA Library, the Pompidou Bpi, V&A Museum and National Gallery Singapore.

Lee Bul (South Korean, born 1964) is one of the most prominent contemporary artists to emerge from Asia in recent decades. Lee Bul: From 1998 to Now is a comprehensive survey of her career to date, featuring major works from the artist’s studio and collections across Asia and beyond.

The exhibition at M+ unfolds in three comprehensive sections that span the artist’s career. It opens with an immersive open landscape, featuring iconic architectural installations from Lee’s Mon grand récit series (2005–ongoing). These complex works encourage visitors to reflect on the grand narratives of the modernist project and the aesthetics of failed utopias. This section also includes a selection of two-dimensional works from the Untitled (Willing To Be Vulnerable—Velvet) and Perdu series (2016–ongoing). The second chapter presents examples of Lee’s groundbreaking Cyborg and Anagram series from the late 1990s and early 2000s, which first brought her international acclaim. Combining wide-ranging references from critical theory, art history, and science fiction, these striking works explore entwined ideas of figuration, gender, and beauty in an increasingly technological world. The final section, evoking an artist’s studio, features a constellation of drawings, sketches, and maquettes, revealing how Lee conceptualises and realises her artworks.

Hanart TZ Gallery is delighted to present Bingyi’s solo exhibition “Formation of the Cosmos”, in collaboration with INKstudio. The exhibition features Bingyi's monumental 24-meter-long masterpiece, All Things, delving into the intersection of ancient spiritual wisdom, energy structures, and contemporary artistic expression through the themes of "Lightning Painting” and “Talismans". This show is a profound exploration of Bingyi's deep engagement with the cosmic and philosophical dimensions of ancient Chinese thought, and the way these ideas resonate in the contemporary world.

The term Xuanji (璇璣), originating from ancient Chinese astronomy, refers to the two core stars of the Big Dipper. It also signifies the celestial disc or the mechanism behind the rotation of the stars, serving as a model for understanding the movement of the heavens, the order of time, and the laws of the universe. Beyond its astronomical function, Xuanji is also a symbolic and philosophical concept, representing the cosmic order and the interconnectedness of all things. Its structure mirrors that of a palindromic poem, one that reads symmetrically from front to back, from inside out, from form to meaning, embodying the cyclical and ordered nature of the universe.

Opening reception: Saturday, March 14, 2026, from 2 to 6 pm, in the presence of the artist.

Pushing the possibilities of urban imagery, Bouie CHOI is interested in giving shape to the perishing impressions of a city through interweaving fragments of memory in her painting. Her creative process is like searching for light under overcast skies. The landscapes she paints often remind us of humanity’s insignificance through juxtaposing the visible and the invisible, the artificial and the natural, the scattered and the gathered, micro and macro beings; their coexistence reflects the artist's state of mind. If a painting is a manifestation of infinite borrowed space and time, Choi attempts to negotiate within the gap between the tangible and the intangible, and indescribable space and time with the light of hope and the power of urban imagery. In recent years, Choi has familiarised herself with wood and explores the definition of freedom with multi-perspective and layered temporalities, imbuing the material with her state of mind through the repetitive processes of preserving, sanding, washing, and sprinkling.

HART HAUS is proud to present Double Blue: An Altered Fairy Tales from Hong Kong (I), Florence Yuk-ki Lee solo exhibition, curated by Danson Wong.

If Hong Kong truly had a fairytale of its own, what form would it take? In Double Blue, artist Florence Yuk-ki Lee transforms the city through animation and spatial installation into two flowing blue trajectories. The blue of the sea evokes schools of fish drifting through ever-changing waters in search of habitat, while the blue of the sky suggests clouds moving along uncertain routes of gathering and dispersal.

In Lee’s vision, Hong Kong’s story emerges at the intersection of tides and flight paths. The ocean inscribes the city’s historical time, while the sky gives voice to its emotional states. Layered together in the artist’s moving images, they form a narrative that oscillates between urban landscape and psychological space.

HART HAUS is pleased to present Trichiasis, Hou Lam Tsui’s solo show curated by Kobe Ko.

Trichiasis sheds light on the beauty of failing that lies in a refusal to acquiesce to the dominant logics of power and discipline. The term refers to a medical condition where eyelashes grow inward, against their expected course. This “wrong way” growth is reimagined here as a radical force, one that challenges norms, orders, and systemic power from feminist and queer perspectives. In Glitch Feminism, Legacy Russell reclaims the “glitch” not as a malfunction, but as a subversive and powerful rupture. Similarly, as Jack Halberstam explores in The Queer Art of Failure, there is something profoundly queer about failure, “failing is what queer have always done exceptionally well”.

Para Site is pleased to launch its thirtieth-anniversary programmes with ‘Site-seeing’, anexhibition that revisits and responds to the institution’s foundational 1996 exhibition of the same name, on view from 14 March to 14 June 2026. Re-engaging with its core questions, ‘Site-seeing’ explores how urban space, memory, and art-making have evolved within today’s global cities.

The exhibition brings together nine artists and artist groups from the Asia Pacific regionand beyond, including Tolia Astakhishvili (b. 1974, Tbilisi), Heman Chong (b. 1977, Muar), Covey Gong (b. 1994, Changsha), Ko Sin Tung (b. 1987, Hong Kong), NawinNuthong (b. 1993, Bangkok), Anna Sew Hoy (b. 1976, Auckland), Bo Wang and Lu Pan (based in Amsterdam and Hong Kong), Tianyi Zheng (b. 1995, Wuhan), and Stella Zhong(b. 1993, Shenzhen).

Through commissioned and recent works spanning installations, moving images, andsculptures, ‘Site-seeing’ expands upon the original exhibition’s conceptual investigations. Featuring a generation of artists born between the 1970s and 1990s, their workscollectively address the complexities of near-constant redevelopment that define much of contemporary urban life. By placing Hong Kong in dialogue with neighboring and distant cities, the works probe into the myriad of public and private interests that drive urban change, staging the city as a space shaped by regulation and alienation. Simultaneously, however, many of the works attend to the moments of wonder, humor, and meaning that persist within the cracks of the built environment.

Alisan Fine Arts is honoured to present our second solo exhibition of Fang Zhaoling (1914–2006), one of the most important female artists of the 20th century, as a key exhibition celebrating the gallery’s 45th anniversary this year. Deeply rooted in ink painting, Fang studied under Zhang Daqian (1899-1983), a towering master of modern ink art, and also apprenticed with Zhao Shao-ang (1905-1998), a leading representative of the second generation of the Lingnan School. Inspired by these predecessors, Fang developed a highly individual freehand language—approaching Abstract Expressionism in its vigour—across a wide range of subjects.

The exhibition presens over 20 works from the height of Fang’s career (1970s–1990s), including landscapes, bird-and-flower paintings, figures, animals and calligraphy, most being shown for the first time.

What were you doing at 25?

On the occasion of Asia Art Archive turning 25, this question was posed to four leading contemporary artists across Asia: Ho Tzu Nyen, Tehching Hsieh, Araya Rasdjadarmrearnsook, and Zhang Xiaogang. For At 25, they reflect on their artistic origins. Drawing on research into their works, archives, and diverse historical contexts, the exhibition recreates specific moments in time, using them as anchor points in the broader narrative of art history.

The Peninsula Hotels launches ‘Art in Resonance’ 2026 with a new exhibition at its flagship Hong Kong property. For its latest iteration, the programme will feature commissioned works by Hong Kong contemporary artist Angel Hui, Tokyo-based Indonesian artist Albert Yonathan Setyawan in partnership with the Victoria and Albert Museum (V&A), and Hong Kong architect-artist Dr. William Lim in partnership with Tai Ping.

Since 2019, The Peninsula Hotels’ commission-based ‘Art in Resonance’ programme has spotlighted the work of important emerging and mid-career artists. By providing funding, curatorial support, and exhibition space, ‘Art in Resonance’ allows artists to produce significant new public artworks, while simultaneously offering deeply immersive art experiences to Peninsula guests, visitors, and local communities alike.

SALOON Network presents Spoiled Systems, Slow Sabotage, a collection of eight video works that explores fermentation not only as a biological process, but a radical logic of transformation. Queering ecologies and infrastructures, spanning personal, biological, social and digital realms, these works unsettle fixed categories of identity and function.

Through time, video art has challenged traditional notions of media and gradually evolved into diverse forms and experiments. The exhibition aims to explore this generative unruliness through diverse artistic lenses: digital materiality mirrors biological decay; algorithms act as microbes; and glitches become fertile soil where meanings compost and recompose, rejecting the sterile perfection of the digital form. Here, queerness operates as a method—a way of rerouting how worlds are built through cross-species alliances.

Double Q is delighted to announce Luca Sára Rózsa's second solo exhibition at the gallery, scheduled to open in March during Art Basel Hong Kong 2026.

Luca Sára Rózsa (b. 1990, Hungary) analyses the complex relationship between mankind and his environment. Her figures, taken from the Bible and mythology, are often shown in a natural setting in line with the representational portraiture of the Renaissance and the baroque. Placed within a utopian, dreamlike landscape of solitude, her figures are forced to face their own anxieties stemming from the eternity of the world. As the artist describes it, “The figures in my paintings are mammals who have eaten from the Tree of Knowledge and have been expelled from Paradise. They are fully exposed to their fate, facing it either with resignation or hope.”

The inaugural exhibition, Cian Dayrit: A Country, A Body, marks the Filipino artist’s first solo show in Hong Kong. Dayrit’s practice is at its core community focused, and opens the conversation between Cheng-Lan’s Corner and Hong Kong’s public through the exploration of themes of land, power and identity that resonate deeply with the city's own history.

One of the most incisive voices of his generation, Manila-based artist Cian Dayrit takes the Philippines as a lens to examine the systematic control entrenched in our built environment. This presentation brings together a focused selection of recent works that fuses anthropology and speculative storytelling to examine the legacies of colonialism, land extraction and the transfer of power through textiles, paintings, drawings and sculpture. Drawing on archival research and collaborations with rural and Indigenous communities, his works incorporate historical maps, military iconography, botanical imagery and vernacular materials to explore histories of displacement, labour and resistance.

Hong Kong artist Chan Wai-lap presents a new solo exhibition at Oi!, continuing his 'Swimming' series to construct an immersive bathhouse installation that blurs the line between reality and imagination. Drawing inspiration from bathing cultures across time and places, the artist reinterprets these influences into a contemporary version unique to Hong Kong. By subtly dissolving the boundaries between public and private, the exhibition explores the bathhouse, one that embodies the purification of both body and mind, while reflecting the multifaceted meanings of self-discovery and social connection, offering an immersive reflection on space, culture, and perception.

Venue address: Oi! Glassie, 12 Oil Street, North Point

Blue Lotus Gallery is pleased to present Koji Onaka’s first exhibition in Hong Kong, introducing local audiences to one of Japan’s most quietly influential photographic voices. The exhibition brings together works from key series including Distance, Tin Roof & Chimney, and Memories of Younger Days in Shinjuku, revealing Onaka’s lyrical attentiveness to everyday encounters. Through understated compositions and fleeting observations, he transforms ordinary streets, interiors, and landscapes into meditations on memory, separation, and human connection, blending documentary immediacy with personal reflection.

Koji Onaka (born 1960, Fukuoka, Japan) is a Japanese photographer known for his poetic depictions of everyday life. After studying photography in Tokyo, he joined the Image Shop CAMP workshop led by Daido Moriyama. Since the 1980s, he has developed a distinctive style marked by warmth, spontaneity, and subtle humor. His major series include Slow Boat, Tin Roof & Chimney, and Distance. Alongside his exhibition practice, Onaka has contributed significantly to Japan’s independent photobook culture through publishing and mentorship.

Kwai Fung Hin is pleased to present the Solo Exhibition of Oswaldo Vigas: Curtain Call, which brings its focus on the Venezuelan modern master’s hybrid figures, particularly from his transformative “childlike period” that saw the artist conjure an entirely new universe of magical theatre. Populating the stage is a cast of highly inventive, polymorphic “actors”, whose shifting forms challenge cultural boundaries and one-sided reading of the world.

Curtain Call stages another climactic chapter in Vigas’s life, an “encore” moment following more than forty years of successful career. Presented alongside are works spanning his early to mature periods, offering a view into the culmination of his life's work, an ongoing process of questioning and reimagining the world through the living myths of his homeland.

Liu Ying sees existence as energy. The body is not clay, moulded and left to harden. It is a river of light, forever flowing. Bones are pathways of energy; skin is the threshold of vibration while breath is the rhythm of the universe moving through us. When Liu Ying paints, she does not simply depict the human figure but renders the universes within.

As a woman who paints, she knows what the body says without words. Internal physical sensations, visceral scars of time and the flow of vital life force exist, and her paintings become the testimony of those invisible existences. Her explosive strokes and powerful impasto trace the pathways of breath and record the rhythm of heartbeats. The nude depicted becomes the echo chamber of the soul. The curve of a spine harbours a lifetime of struggle while the gesture of hands carries unspoken desire.

For Liu Ying, this is how energy becomes visible. What has no form takes shape on the canvas; what cannot be seen manifests itself from colours. When we are looking at her work, we are following the path of energy, connecting us with something deeper. Her paintings are the vibrations of life incarnate.

Vietnamese-American artist Dinh Q. Lê was a distinguished artist in photography, film and installation and is considered one of Vietnam's most significant contemporary artists. His practice challenges how our memories are recalled and how society archives the evidence of human suffering. Lê's work elucidates his commitment to the artistic process as a means of excavating history and the uncovering and revealing of alternate ideas of loss and redemption. As a child of the war and a migrant to the USA, his work was shaped by the lens of finding his identity through his individual and his country’s collective experience. Lê returned to Vietnam in 1993 and stayed until the sudden end of his life in 2024. Lê’s series of photo-weavings was initiated by his search of his real and imagined memories of the Vietnam war. His complex tapestries intertwine Vietnam movie images, found photographs and Buddhist icons to weave together his personal memories and how the war was perceived by the outside. His works have been exhibited at and/or collected by institutions worldwide including the MoMA, the Tate Modern, The Mori Museum, The Carnegie International, the Venice Biennale, the San Francisco MoMa, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, the San Jose Museum of Art and M+ in Hong Kong, among many others.

 "The Ascent: 15 Years of 3812 Gallery – Anniversary Exhibition" embodies two guiding principles: continuous striving (ascent) and the transformative power of change. We are thrilled to present works from 12 artists across generations, each piece reflecting the artists' journeys of adaptation and reinvention, weaving a rich narrative of human creativity.

In an era saturated with digital noise and the constant circulation of information, JPS Gallery Hong Kong presents “FILTER: Reconstructing the Unseen,” the first overseas solo exhibition by emerging Japanese artist Marino Funahashi. Rooted in her ongoing exploration of memory, time, and the natural world, Marino’s paintings turn the quiet, often solitary act of remembering into an immersive, sensory experience.

At the heart of this evocative exhibition is the idea of filtration—the subtle reconstruction of experiences and impressions that have slipped from view. Drawing on her interest in how lived experiences are sifted, edited, and reshaped over time, Marino creates paintings that function as both quiet meditations and dynamic visual essays on the ambiguities of memory. Rather than depicting nature directly, she seeks to restore a more primal, “natural state” of perception, where sensations are felt before they are named. Memory appears not as a single, frozen scene but as a shimmering accumulation of overlapping time.

Opening reception: Thursday, March 19, 5:00 PM – 8:00 PM (Artist will be in attendance)

Square Street Gallery is pleased to present ‘HEX STATE SERVER,’ Brandon Tay’s first solo exhibition in Hong Kong, curated by Institution of Niche and Rafi Abdullah. At the core of ‘HEX STATE SERVER’ is the interplay between individual agency and destiny, drawing parallels between Chinese divination and computation to probe the relationship between randomness and fate. Visitors participate in a collaborative, asynchronous fortune-telling session through an interactive sculpture connecting them to the HEX STATE SERVER—an oracle simulation operating through I-Ching logic. Surrounding the exhibition, PHANTOM INDEX unfolds as a speculative timeline mapping Chinese thought from historical to speculative futures. Through these layered frameworks, Tay investigates Chinese cosmotechnics and the fundamental overlap between chance and destiny.

During the Basel week, we are excited to co-organise the exhibition 𝓐𝓻𝓽𝓲𝓯𝓲𝓲𝓬𝓪𝓵 𝓕𝓵𝓪𝓿𝓸𝓾𝓻 with a series of panel talks

The show explores the cyborg condition in our tech-saturated era, where human creativity and artificial systems—algorithms, synthetics, urban designs—engage in profound, mutual infusion. Drawing parallels to artificial food flavors, it reveals a reciprocal "tasting": humans gain hybrid augmentation, machines acquire emotional depth, birthing hybrid artworks that blur natural/artificial boundaries as co-constitutive realities.

Celebrating the arrival of the Year of the Horse in 2026, this exhibition explores horse-themed paintings in Chinese art by considering imperial and literati practices, the relationship between tradition and modernity, and the dialogue between Chinese and Western painting styles. The exhibition, drawing mainly on the Palace Museum collection and enriched by loans from the Hong Kong Museum of Art, the Art Museum of the Chinese University of Hong Kong, and the Hong Kong Palace Museum, will display nearly 100 horse-themed paintings by more than 60 renowned artists from the Yuan dynasty up to the 20th century.

Venue: Gallery 4, Hong Kong Palace Museum

During Hong Kong Art Month, coinciding with our highly anticipated Spring marquee season, we cordially invite you to experience beyond the abstract at Sotheby’s Maison. Through shifting planes of colour, calligraphic gestures and delicately balanced forms, painting, sculpture and works on paper unfold alongside historic objects and artefacts, the exhibition brings together a diverse group of modern and contemporary works by artists including Joan Mitchell, Mark Rothko, Cy Twombly, Sanyu, Zao Wou-Ki, Lucio Fontana and Alexander Calder, creating a dialogue between artistic traditions across cultures and centuries.

Hong Kong art reflects the city’s unique position as a cultural crossroads, synthesising Chinese traditions and Western influences into distinctive artistic vocabularies and aesthetics. As a flagship Hong Kong art event of “Art March”, “Live: Hong Kong Art Exhibition” brings together 19 artists who are actively shaping the city’s contemporary art scene, ranging from established masters to rising stars. Their works are often deeply rooted in local contexts, reflecting Hong Kong’s unique urban landscape, rhythm of life and cultural sensibilities. Central to many of their practices are cross‑media transformation and experimentation. Through multifaceted artistic languages, familiar forms are reimagined into contemporary expressions—paintings that resonate with light and shadow, ink interwoven with digital media, and traditional crafts that collide with innovative ideas—sparking an aesthetic uniquely tied to this time and place.

One of the central values of contemporary art resides in its capacity to reflect upon and respond to the conditions of our existential environment. In our current era, material production under the logic of capitalism does more than merely shape the form of social commodities; it permeates human temporal perception and existential awareness, tethering the experience of living to concepts of consumption, labor, and utility.

The exhibition Infinitesimal Time, Monumental Matter: Scales of Existence takes the concepts of "matter" and "time" as its point of departure. Featuring nine artists from diverse cultural backgrounds, the exhibition unfolds across three distinct yet interconnected chapters, presenting a visual discourse on the essence of being. From the consumerist surface of material production to the reshaping of existence through repetitive labor and temporal homogeneity, the journey ultimately leads toward the possibility of nature as an alternative scale of existence. Through the dialectic between "infinitesimal time" (fragmented individual time) and "monumental matter" (material carriers imbued with meaning), the exhibition re-examines the values and boundaries of human existence.

The exhibition "Listening to the Lost Organ" finds its inspiration in the auricular muscles, an auditory mechanism once used to adjust and orient toward sound that has now largely become vestigial. The work explores how humans are gradually forgetting their innate organic capacities as technology reshapes the structures of perception. This physical structure, which still exists but is rarely consciously felt, serves as an entry point for rethinking perception and bodily function.

Through a series of rotating speakers, the exhibition constructs a dynamic sound field where the direction of sound is constantly shifting. This prompts the audience to adjust their posture and focus. Listening is no longer a passive act of reception. Instead, it becomes a physical response to the movement of sound within the space, allowing the audience to re-experience orientation as a collaborative process between the body and the speakers. The direction of sound is no longer determined by the organ alone. It is generated between the space, the installation, and the body, presenting perception as a fluid and ever-changing state.

Exhibition opens on March 20, 2026 (Fri) at 6:30 PM in the presence of the artist.

Performance: March 28, 2026 (Sat), 3:00 PM – 4:00 PM

Paper cuttings have long fascinated viewers with their expressive storytelling and extraordinary precision. For the first time, Swiss paper cuttings from the Wyss Collection (Unterseen, Bern) are being juxtaposed with Chinese paper cuttings from the collection of the University Museum and Art Gallery, The University of Hong Kong, along with works from the Guangling Paper Cutting Art Museum and the Jieyiyuan Paper Cutting Art Center, Pingyao, both located in Shanxi province. The aim of the exhibition is to highlight the diversity and distinctive cultural identities of this fascinating art form. In 2009, Chinese paper cutting was added to UNESCO’s Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. To highlight the significance of this craft spanning both cultures, two parallel exhibitions will be held in spring 2026, at the University Museum and Art Gallery and the Kunsthaus Interlaken (22 February–17 May 2026).

Swiss paper cuttings are primarily narrative works. From the mid-19th century onwards, they replaced the popular shadow pictures known as silhouettes, with a particular focus on Alpine life. Swiss paper cuttings function as condensed narrative microcosms, each distinguished by striking and subtle variations in their repertoire of figures, forms, and designs. Cut from black paper and arranged largely symmetrically, Swiss paper cuttings feature a wealth of ornamentation and an incredible density of detail that invites viewers to discover and linger. Thanks to the cooperation of the Wyss Collection this exhibition will feature works by pioneers such as Johann Jakob Hauswirth and Louis Saugy; traditional cuttings by David Regez and Christian Schwizgebel; and contemporary constructions from Ueli Hofer, Martha Kneusslin, Nelly Naef, Ernst Oppliger, Bruno Weber, and others.

Art of Nature Contemporary presents “Where Roots Grow”, solo exhibition by Wu Guanzhen, on view from March 20 to April 30, 2026.

For Wu Guanzhen, creation returns the body to mountains, water’s breath, and wind’s whisper; renewing his bond with the shaping land. Water’s ripple, forest hush, and lacquer’s slow time hold memories of place and feeling.“Where Roots Grow” embodies a rhythm of slow growth, a tender bond between the artist, the earth, and the quiet pulse of life unfolding through time.

CERTAINLY takes inspiration from artist-composer La Monte Young’s seminal 1960 instructional work Composition 1960 #10, a score that consists of a single directive: “Draw a straight line and follow it.” What appears deceptively simple quickly reveals itself as more complicated — the line wavers, resists, and deviates, becoming a potent metaphor for creativity, decision-making, and the unpredictable forces that shape us.

In CERTAINLY, this conundrum becomes a catalyst for artistic experimentation, negotiating the space between control and freedom, planning and improvisation. The exhibition brings together a diverse group of artists whose practices respond, directly and obliquely, to this condition of uncertainty, embracing deviation as a generative force rather than a failure of control.

Participating artists include Tozer Pak Sheung Chuen (Hong Kong), Lousy (Hong Kong), Young-Hae Chang Heavy Industries (Korea/US), Santiago Sierra (Mexico), Shinro Ohtake (Japan), Peter Robinson (New Zealand), and Weng Io Wong (Macao), among others. Across different media and approaches, each artist reflects on the impossibility of perfect predictions — and the creative space that emerges when systems, structures, and expectations begin to fracture.

There’s an unmistakable pull when Sin Sin discovered the striking black & white photography works by Jay Khan. The way he framed what’s out there to bring forth the delicate details, the angle he maneuvered, the contrast and balance he mixed. All the more fascinating that Jay’s official profession is actually Head Mixologist of COA, the groundbreaking cocktail bar in Hong Kong that he co-founded, which consistently named to the Asia’s Best Bars list.

Inspired by the geometric poetry of Fan Ho and the nocturnal intimacy of Brassaï, Jay is able to find the still and tranquil moments in the chaotic scenes of Hong Kong: Like a fisherman standing and waiting quietly on the street, he watches the flow of light and shadow, lingering in the city’s movement to capture the ephemeral beauty of real.

Grieve the Departed Wound is a performative milieu where the boundary between spectator and performer dissolves. Within this environment of movement-making and memory-retrieval, visitors are invited to drift through the physical and conceptual debris of performance, becoming part of the very entanglement they came to witness.

Through a lens of liminality, the exhibition seeks a rhythmic relationship between the scenography of Serafin’s two projects: "Cosmological Gangbang" and "Lost Ancestors". Using the material agency of reconstructed installations, videos, and paintings infused with the artist’s physical traces and past performances, the gallery is transformed into a vessel. It reconfigures the agency of darkness, stillness, body, and time, turning objects into witnesses

𝓥𝓮(𝓻𝔂)𝓷𝓲𝓬𝓮 playfully “de-biennalizes” Venice by bringing critical discussion about global art circuits into an everyday pizza shop during Hong Kong Art Week 2026. Through AI works, moving image, print and installation, artists enter and twist the many Venices found in Hong Kong nightlife, restaurants, guesthouses and branding, asking: how do we imagine “the West”, why do we keep borrowing its names, and how can we rebuild a Hong Kong-centred narrative once the spell is broken.

This March, coinciding with Art Basel Hong Kong 2026, Art Intelligence Global is pleased to present “THE UNCANNY” at our Hong Kong gallery.

Bringing together significant works by Yayoi Kusama, Robert Gober, Louise Bourgeois, among others, the exhibition examines how artists have engaged with the psychological concept of the uncanny. Through distortions of the body, the domestic sphere, and technology, these works dislocate the familiar to reveal submerged memories, desires, and anxieties.

This March, WyndhamSocial and Cassio present the debut sculptural installation by Dutch digital artist FrankNitty3000. Marking his transition from video to physical art, the piece explores the intersection of human gestures and digital systems. By featuring the act of lips blowing against looped screens, the installation transforms organic human breath into a digital dialogue, capturing random human actions "in a binary way”, where organic breath meets digital mediation, creating an ongoing conversation between human unpredictability and technological precision.

HKWALLS, Hong Kong's leading non-profit street art organisation, is excited to announce the return of its landmark annual festival for its 11th edition, running from 21 to 29 March 2026.

This year's festival, themed around the city as a canvas, features over 20 local and international artists from 14 countries. We are particularly thrilled to introduce "Art on the Move," a brand-new collaboration with GoGoX where six artists will transform logistics trucks into mobile masterpieces and immersive gallery spaces.

Festival Highlights include:

• Live Mural Painting: Artists like Fabio Petani (Italy) and Hardthirteen (Indonesia)—who will create a portrait of Bruce Lee—will paint live across the Central and Western District.

• HKWALLS Digital 2026: A massive digital art display on the Sino LuminArt Façade (Tsim Sha Tsui) featuring 82,000 LEDs, as well as giant screens at the new Kai Tak Mall.

• Interactive Events: An Art Battle Kickoff Party at PMQ on 21 March and a grand "Art Walk in Central" finale on Chater Road on 29 March.

ArtHouse Tai Hang is a new contemporary art festival celebrating an international array of creative talents in a unique Hong Kong neighbourhood. 

Through a group exhibition of over 50 artists, the 10 exhibiting houses unlock a different side of Tai Hang. Each of them becomes a chapter, inviting visitors to wander, discover, and connect the works in an organic and immersive journey.

Visitors can walk freely through narrow laneways, open spaces, and street corners, hop in and out between curated exhibitions and site-specific installations, stop for lunch, see another show, grab a coffee or a beer, and continue the journey. Tai Hang is not just a setting — it is where contemporary art meets the soul of a historic community.

When speech is mistranslated, restricted, or simply fails, what other alphabets remain? Between Italy and Hong Kong—where languages, histories, and governing systems diverge—our exhibition proposes play as a shared, subversive alphabet.

Neither innocent nor trivial, play here becomes a strategic act. The artists turn to games, glitches, and improvised rules to articulate what cannot be said. Within their worlds, prevailing rules are suspended, roles dissolve, and hierarchies are reconfigured. Between docility and insubordination, play emerges as a magical gesture: an agent of both disorder and reorder.

How can we learn to nurture sensibility? How do we care for each other and bear sorrow together? How might we begin to heal ourselves and the world around us? In a time of rapid change, this exhibition invites you to slow down, engage with the work of 14 artists from across Asia, and turn inwards.

Textiles have always been inseparable from our spiritual life. They appear in rituals and ceremonies, accompanying people through the cycles of life and death, joy and sorrow, parting and reunion. They also move with us every day, gently connecting our inner world and the spaces we inhabit. Passed from generation to generation, the acts of weaving, dyeing and stitching form a tactile language of memory, emotion, belief and imagination – both personal and collective.

Here, we explore textiles as living pathways that intertwine into spiritual maps. They weave threads between people and place, ancestors and ecologies, the visible and the unseen, softness and strength, while opening up futures and possibilities of living, relating, and caring for the world.

DEVEDO is pleased to present Chinese artist Siqi Qin's first solo exhibition in Hong Kong, featuring two of her iconic series: the Human Aesthetics and Flowers.

Human Aesthetics was inspired by Robert Mapplethorpe. Siqi portrays the body's ultimate beauty—sometimes sculptural and still, other times dynamic and fluid. Her refined approach to composition and light recalls the classic nudes of Bill Brandt and Edward Weston.

Flowers focus on blooms such as roses and anthuriums, which quietly bloom within the exhibition space. Her sensitive mastery of composition achieves a balance between restraint and tenderness, presenting a poetic vision of nature's beauty. Inspired by Georgia O'Keeffe and photographer Nobuyoshi Araki, Siqi brings together floristry and photography to construct a narrative of emotion that is both gentle and charged with tension.

Time: 2-7 pm (Wednesday-Saturday, By Appointment)
Venue: 6J, Block 2, Kingley Industrial Building, 33 Yip Kan Street, Wong Chuk Hang

Contemporary art’s engagements with Modernity and Hauntology continue to provoke essential reflections on history and reality. This curatorial experiment explores their untapped possibilities within specific East Asian contexts. Set in Hong Kong—where Buddhism and Daoism thrive alongside deeply lived folk beliefs that shape not only spiritual life but also social, cultural, and political realities—the exhibition highlights the intangible yet constant presence of the ghostly and the divine in everyday human–world relations. The English title GHOSTLY, GODLY captures this spectral dimension, while the Chinese title 人間 (Human Realm, Ningenkai) evokes the unresolved, bittersweet present of Buddhist cosmology, where joy and suffering coexist and call for ongoing practice.

Curated by Chris Wan, the show presents newly commissioned works, existing pieces, archives, and documents by artists Simon Liu, Cici Wu, Tang Kwok-hin, Ha Bik Chuen, and On Kino. Fully supported by the Octone Foundation, this project fosters experimental curating and artistic creation outside conventional institutional frameworks.

Venue address: 33/F, M Place, Wong Chuk Hang

The Hong Kong Arts Development Council (HKADC) announces its latest exhibition, The Lurking Void, at its distinctive multi-functional space, the SHOWCASE. Harnessing the full scale of the venue, the exhibition envelops audiences in colossal, site-specific installations, brought to life through unsettling sound and motion. Office equipment – printers, desks, cables, and scanners – transform into creature-like entities and landscapes, portraying a white‑collar world where AI does not replace humans but alters the nature of work, leaving people neither erased nor in control, but instead deeply entangled.

The Lurking Void is a psychological portrait of contemporary office labour shaped by the growing presence of artificial intelligence. Rather than framing AI as a force that simply replaces human workers, the project reflects on how work, identity and value are being reconfigured as humans and machines increasingly operate together. In this environment, the boundary between human and machine grows blurry and fluid, no longer a clean divide but an evolving field of negotiation. Through its installations, the exhibition responds to this complex symbiotic relationship, inviting visitors to consider what it means to be human in the “Post-Human Era”. The works are by award-winning Hong Kong artist Phoebe Hui, whose multidisciplinary practice spanning robotics, kinetic sculpture, generative art, sound, comics and drawing, gives this collective condition immersive form.

Solely organise and present by the Hong Kong Arts Centre (HKAC), Collect Hong Kong Art Fair 2026 will take place from 21 to 29 March 2026 at the Pao Galleries, Diana Cheung Experimental Gallery, The Showcase and Jockey Club Atrium in the Hong Kong Arts Centre. 

Built upon the success of the Collectible Art Fair in 2023 and Collect Hong Kong 2025, Collect Hong Kong Art Fair 2026 is created to support the burgeoning wave of artistic talent and heighten mass appreciation for the work of local artists. This event will showcase innovative art in diverse media to highlight the creative breadth of local artist and provide a platform for artists, galleries, and art enthusiasts to connect and collaborate. Overseeing the artwork selection process is an independent curator and a jury panel.

With Collect Hong Kong’s unprecedented championing of homegrown virtuosity, visitors will enjoy an enriching and truly unparalleled art experience. The event feature works from emerging talents to established artists, catering to the diverse interests of art collectors and enthusiasts.

Christine Sun Kim’s site-specific digital animation installation, A String of Echo Traps (2022-2026) will be on view at Pacific Place’s Park Court. Reflecting on echo and translation and accompanied by a sound composition, the artwork will be presented by White Space, supported by Swire Properties, Official Partner of offsite Encounters, Art Basel Hong Kong.

Growing up in the United States and Europe, and currently living and working in China, Etsu Egami experienced various communication barriers she encountered as a result of her cross-cultural residence. She felt that languages can “only be sensed, not explained”, thus becoming more interested in the discipline of language and communication. Etsu’s works are comprised of various mediums, such as voice, video, and drawings, through which she strives to question human instincts and the authenticity of communication. Estu’s perceptive contemporary pieces have led her to receive high praise from the art sector. Curator of Pompidou art centre Julie Jones describes Egami as an artist who “sees all these specificities as a source, not only of misunderstanding but also of creation and richness in people’s relationships.” Chinese curator Feng Bo Yi also summarized Etsu’s creation as being “about the concept and the significance of ‘communication’. Through the paintings and videos which embody these mishearing games, as well as the evolution of times, the clashes between civilisations, we acquire a discourse on the barriers in language communications, and subsequently even trigger a crisis.”

wamono art will present SIDE CORE’s “under city” in Hong Kong for the first time.

SIDE CORE is a Tokyo-based art collective active since 2012. Members Sakie Takasu, Tohru Matsushita, and Taishi Nishihiro work with video director Kazunori Harimoto. Grounded in the ideas and histories of street culture, SIDE CORE’s practice asks how individuals can communicate—and leave traces—in urban and public space. Their projects often involve collaborators from other fields, resulting in works that emerge from the city’s blind spots, gaps, and overlooked infrastructures.

The exhibition’s central theme is “urban underground spaces.” For “under city,” SIDE CORE filmed rarely accessible sites such as massive underground reservoirs, disused water treatment facilities, and abandoned subway stations. While recent technological advances have made cities increasingly digitized and “visible,” many subterranean environments remain unknown or difficult to grasp. The work follows skaters moving through these underground spaces, then edits the footage into a continuous sequence—stitching separate locations into a single “virtual underground city.” The project brings together multiple lenses: skateboarding as a way of reading Tokyo’s underground, alongside geology and disaster preparedness, technology and urban theory, as well as urban legends and fiction. Japanese street skater Takahiro Morita participates through skate video production company “FESN”, performing in the work and directing skate sequences.

What is it like to live, sense, and feel as a mushroom? Over the past year, Zheng Mahler conducted extensive research on their local home island of Lantau, and encountered thirty-eight distinct species of mushrooms. After photographing and compiling their findings, they produced a unique dataset and fed it into a custom AI model — critiquing and simultaneously expanding AI's dearth of knowledge around mushrooms in connection with the Western world's fear of fungi, and to generate new, speculative mushroom species. The project likens the rhizomatic and seemingly infinitely generative nature of mushrooms to emergent AI systems and posits we understand each through the other. At the same time, it invites us to consider our preoccupations with generative qualities of 'fruiting bodies' and consider the responsive, cultivating qualities of 'network' inputs.

For their solo show at PHD Group, “Mushroom Clouds,” Zheng Mahler will build a large-scale living, breathing terrarium which simulates the biodiverse ecosystems on Lantau Island, complete with plants and fungi. Within this terrarium, a dense cloud of fog occasionally forms as a reaction to systems of water, heat, and growth, in which projections of AI-hallucinated mushrooms appear, creating a ghostly display of Lantau fungi. A series of drawings of a number of fungi species found on Lantau and used in the AI dataset appears around the gallery space for visitors to similarly encounter and be guided through this immersive, unpredictable and expansive exhibition.

Opening: 21 March 1-7pm

Axel Vervoordt Gallery is pleased to present Asteroid J-734, a solo exhibition by Jaffa Lam at its Hong Kong space. Following her recent participation in the Shanghai Biennale, this presentation expands the artist’s longstanding engagement with material, community, and storytelling. Bringing together new works developed across a range of mediums—including ceramics shaped during her residency in Longquan, China, as well as ongoing fabric and window installations—Asteroid J-734 forms an interconnected constellation of materials and forms that move fluidly between the monumental and the intimate. In this new body of work, Lam invites viewers into a world both deeply personal and profoundly connected to the environments and people that surround her.

Capsule is pleased to present Kong Lingnan's(b. 1983, Jilin, China) solo exhibition The Fool’s Journey, marking the debut of the eponymous series of 22 oil paintings on wood. The works offer a metaphorical reimagining of the 22 Major Arcana cards of the Tarot, tracing the arc of an individual’s spiritual growth—from ignorance to wisdom, from chaos to fulfillment. The series guides viewers along the Fool’s journey through a sequence of archetypes and stages embodied by each Tarot card, reflecting on the challenges, transformations, and moments of enlightenment that we all encounter in one way or another throughout life.

‘Receding Scenery’ describes a familiar physical experience: as a vehicle moves forward, the scenery outside appears to drift backward. Rather than nostalgia, Hazel WONG Mei Yin’s works grow from this shifting perspective, reflecting the uncertainty, thoughts, and emotions of being in transit.

Wong’s practice is shaped by her recent life between Sapporo and Hong Kong. Long hours spent travelling—as both passenger and driver—have turned the interior of the vehicle into a space for quiet observation. Frequent relocation has made movement central to her work. While the landscapes she paints refer to real places, they also carry personal memory and feeling, revealing her ongoing interest in distance, time, and human connection.

In this new body of work, Dony CHENG Hung deepens her ongoing inquiry into urban existence, perception, and temporality.Cheng reflects on the shift from a past in which time was non-uniform, repeatedly reactivated through ritual and architecture, to a present dominated by speed, measurement, and constant management. This exploration is inspired by her current reading of Mircea Eliade's "Traité d'histoire des religions" and Paul Virilio's "L'Esthétique de la disparition". Her earlier investigations into the dialogue between artificial and natural light, along with latent rituals that reconnect us to nature within everyday routines, now converge into a visual language centered on the objectification of present-day temporality.

MAYAO is pleased to announce ZHU Tao’s solo exhibition 《20260321》. Join us at the opening reception from 4:30 - 6:30 PM on 21 March, to regain the original purpose of ‘arriving’ in an era increasingly marked by disorientation. Below is an excerpt by the curator:

One afternoon in December 2025, I visited Zhu Tao and had the privilege of seeing all of his manuscripts. I remember sitting in his study that day, looking through them one by one. Time seemed to freeze at a certain moment that afternoon. My body was in a small village somewhere in Tai Mei Tuk, Hong Kong, and the sky outside gradually darkened. Yet those vivid images carried me to different places. These images are the footprints of Zhu Tao.

We chose the exhibition opening date—20260321—as the title of the exhibition, to represent the number of steps he has taken. These steps are not empty data; they are the traces of a person using his own body to experience different spaces and landscapes. In Zhu Tao’s manuscripts, what I see is not merely scenery, but cities with different temperaments and atmospheres. One feels present within them. I can almost smell those places: Venice soaked in sunlight, rain-drenched Kyoto, the wind-blown landscapes of Qinghai beneath a blazing sun, and Greece where the air carries the salt of the sea and the wind is filled with its scent.

A new body of paintings by Fares THABET, the celebrated Tunisian artist whose ethereal landscapes have captured the transformative light and chromatic intensity of North Africa. Working from his studio in the bay of Tunis, Thabet continues to explore the intersection of observation and imagination, creating compositions that transcend geographical specificity while remaining rooted in Mediterranean luminosity.

Thabet's recent paintings present scenes of paradoxical complexity and serenity—works where sandy beaches blush rose-pink, seas dissolve into turquoise-green gradients, and skies transform into tangerine orange at dusk. These tranquil environments exist primarily in imagination yet bear traces of human habitation, occasionally revealing lone figures, drifting boats, or entire abandoned cities merging seamlessly with their surroundings.

WKM Gallery is pleased to present “HKG-TYO 1974-2023,” a solo exhibition by Canadian photographer Greg Girard (b. 1955, Canada). Known for his intimate, cinematic documentation of the social and physical transformations in major East Asian cities over the past four decades, the current exhibition juxtaposes two of Girard’s second homes, Hong Kong and Tokyo, during their respective eras of industrialization and growth.

Guided by an undying investigative curiosity and appreciation of the overlooked, Girard’s lush, enchanting, and at times melancholy compositions offer a point of access to the euphoria and growing pains that eventually came to shape Hong Kong and Tokyo as we know them today, becoming time capsules that point simultaneously toward the present and the future.

When Antenna Space celebrated a tenth anniversary just a couple short years ago, the world was in a weirdly fragmented state. We called the exhibition “Horizons,” after the hypothetical event horizon of an expanding cosmos, the place from which no signal could ever be received; we speculated that hope was our lone defense against the impossible—a protest against the infinite.

Today, the world remains fragmented, perhaps even more so than it was in those strange, post-pandemic days, when travel was again possible but the urge to connect felt like a distant memory. We see our technical networks breaking into closed circuits, China building and exporting a global alternative, Europe planning its own civic social networks, the United States a chaotic morass held together by the thin glue of fascism and artificial intelligence. For the first time in living memory, we are living in a truly multipolar world.

The second chapter of “Us” unfolds in Hong Kong. Where the Berlin edition began within the quieter confines of the domestic interior, this iteration prepares us to step outside. In this intermediate space, we encounter change, the presence of others, the pull of the external, and the charged energies of the city.

Foretold by classical feng shui and Asian astrology, this new era marks a cosmic shift from the element of Earth to Fire—symbols of volatility and upheaval—signaling an urgent call to restore water as a vital counterbalance: an agent of care, adaptability, and healing. In this spirit, during Hong Kong Arts Month, PODIUM is delighted to present 'Amour Aquatique'—a group exhibition that pulses with the tensions of presence and absence, attachment and release, drawing viewers into the ebb and flow of aquatic love—at once universal and deeply intimate. Drifting through the protean forms of water as metaphors for the fluidity of love, grief, nostalgia, and memory, this exhibition brings together five artists, including Fran Chang, Omyo Cho, Soyoung Chung, Minouk Lim, and Luis Xertu, whose works are inspired by the continuous cycles of looping, evaporating, pooling, eroding, and flowing, wading into the liminal spaces where personal and political waters entangle.

Lap-See Lam draws on experiences of the Cantonese diaspora, delving into migratory movement, generational loss, speculative history, and the otherization of cultural symbols through video installations, sculptures, and live performances. Her works blend contemporary techniques with traditional storytelling forms and references, taking inspiration from shadow play puppetry and Cantonese opera, as well as the aesthetics of Western Chinese restaurants. Her work creates mythical imaginations of Chinoiserie as defined by imperialist history, while reflecting on her personal family history of migration, to convey the complexities of cultural heritage.

For the past two decades, the internationally renowned art collective Slavs and Tatars have devoted themselves to a specific regional remit – which they define as ‘east of the former Berlin Wall and west of the Great Wall of China’ – comprising nearly a fifth of the Earth’s landmass. This expansive geography, like the collective’s name itself, serves as a rebuff (if not resistance) to reductive questions of identity plaguing the right and the left across the globe today. Their sculptures, books, installations and lecture performances celebrate a multilingualism and multiconfessionalism that make the otherwise daunting metaphysical inquiry – Who are you? – more joyful, irreverent and, alas, fluid.

For their first solo exhibition in Hong Kong – titled 胡 (هو / who) are you? – Slavs and Tatars bring together works across different media that dance merrily around the idea of being and belonging. The presentation includes newly commissioned works from their Love Me Love Me Not series (2014), which features four cities whose names (and their respective alphabets) have fluctuated according to which empire, nation or ruler they belonged. Concrete sculptures resembling road signs – Not Berlin Not Bukhara and Not Bahamas Not Baghdad – refuse to commit to a given destination. Each work highlights a choice between the spiritual/sacred (Bukhara is known as the fourth-holiest city in Islam after Mecca, Medina and Jerusalem) and the secular (Berlin’s Berghain or the Bahama’s beaches, to start); but the artists choose not to choose.

THE SHOPHOUSE is pleased to present the group exhibition House of Dissociation, featuring eleven artists: Alice Cheng Chau Yung, Chris Oh, Shuo Phoebe Li, Lassi Kontiainen, Shi Zheng, Tang Kwong San, Takuya Otsuki, Tao Siqi, Wang Xingyun, Yu Shuk Pui Bobby, and Yutaka Nozawa, featuring a series of paintings on canvas and paper, video, sculpture, and interactive site-specific installation across the entire gallery building. The exhibition opens on March 21 and runs until May 10.

House of Dissociation posits that identity itself is a permeable architecture, where rooms of memory, emotion, and perception drift apart and reassemble in unexpected configurations.The exhibition invites viewers to navigate, inhabit, or immerse themselves in the fractured layers of the self and the world—to find resonance in the echo between what is held together and what falls away. Here, fragmentation is not a flaw, but a generative principle. The familiar—a chair, a voice, a scene—is rendered unfamiliar, not to alienate, but to reveal the latent possibilities within our own perception. In this era of disintegration, we experience dissociation and the collapse of perceptions. Thereafter, the hope of rediscovering meaning lies not in rigid stability, but in the fluid, adaptive rhythm of a consciousness that learns to dwell within its own multiplicity.

Ben Brown Fine Arts is pleased to announce Les Lalanne: A Living Landscape, a comprehensive exhibition of the celebrated artistic duo Claude and François-Xavier Lalanne, presented at the gallery’s Hong Kong space in conjunction with Art Basel Hong Kong 2026. Conceived as an imagined garden, the exhibition invites visitors into an immersive environment where art, nature and imagination converge.

The exhibition draws directly from the Lalannes’ environment. Their home in Ury, France, was a place of constant activity, where family life, animals and craftsmen shared the courtyard and art was inseparable from everyday existence. The house functioned as a working studio, while the surrounding gardens became a living museum. Gardens were particularly central to Claude’s practice – carefully shaped spaces of controlled wildness, where vegetation was allowed to flourish freely yet deliberately, animated her sculpture. This fusion of nature and art, cultivation and imagination forms the conceptual core of A Living Landscape.

Carl Kostyál is pleased to present a duo exhibition by Camilla Engström (b. 1989, Örebro) and Julius Nordvinter (b. 2003, Gothenburg) at the gallery’s Hong Kong space in Landmark South.The exhibition marks Julius Nordvinter’s debut presentation in Asia and Camilla Engström’s return to the region, where she has established a strong presence in recent years.

Camilla Engström’s luminous landscapes and Julius Nordvinter’s psychologically charged portraits approach painting from different directions yet share a common lineage. Both draw on the imaginative terrain of Nordic folklore, where landscape, myth and the inner life often collapse into one another.

Jutta Koether, born in Cologne, lives and works in Berlin and New York. Since the 1980s, she has been developing an alternative genealogy and practice of painting that have decisively shaped the current understanding of the medium.
