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.

Opening Reception: March 24, 2026 | 5PM – 8PM

A group exhibition of 9 Italian and HK artists, curated by Giulia Pollicita and Eunice Tsang
Tap Chan, Adele Dipasquale, Roberto Fassone, Adam Harrison, Ocean Leung, Jennie MaryTai Liu, Simon Liu, Michela de Mattei, Sara Ravelli

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.

Curators: WANG Weiwei, Eugene Hannah PARK, KUROSAWA Seiha, WANG Huan

Siqi Qin: Between Body and Bloom at DEVEDO

  • Hong Kong Hong Kong (map)

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)

GHOSTLY, GODLY by Octone Foundation

  • Hong Kong Hong Kong (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

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.

The Lurking Void at Hong Kong Arts Development Council

  • Hong Kong Hong Kong (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

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.

Etsu Egami: Blessings from Afar at Tang Contemporary (WCH)

  • Hong Kong Hong Kong (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

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.”

SIDE CORE: under city at wamono art

SIDE CORE: under city at wamono art

  • Hong Kong Hong Kong (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

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.

Zheng Mahler: Mushroom Clouds at PHD Group

  • Hong Kong Hong Kong (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

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.

Hazel Wong Mei Yin: Receding Scenery at Gallery EXIT

  • Hong Kong Hong Kong (map)

‘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.

Innaugural Opening Exhibition at Antenna Space

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.

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.

Slavs and Tatars: 胡 ( هو / who) are you? at Rossi&Rossi

Slavs and Tatars: 胡 ( هو / who) are you? at Rossi&Rossi

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.

Les Lalanne: A Living Landscape at Ben Brown Fine Arts

  • Hong Kong Hong Kong (map)

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. She programmatically connects her painting to performance, music, and textual production, and works and worked in collaborative projects with Reena Spaulings, Tom Verlaine, Steven Parrino, John Miller, Tony Conrad, and Kim Gordon, among others.

Koether's work was the subject of a comprehensive survey exhibition at the Museum Brandhorst in Munich and the Mudam in Luxembourg in 2018 and 2019. Other exhibitions of her work have been held at Artium Museoa in Vitoria-Gasteiz (2022), Museum Abteiberg in Mönchengladbach (2019), Dundee Contemporary Arts (2013), Moderna Museet in Stockholm (2011), Van Abbemuseum in Eindhoven (2009), and Kunsthalle Bern (2009). Her works are in collections of international museums, such as the Museum of Modern Art and Whitney Museum of American Art in New York, Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles, Berlin National Gallery, Museum Brandhorst in Munich, Museum moderner Kunst Stiftung Ludwig Vienna, Museum Ludwig Cologne, and Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam.

check-in SIDE SPACE 2026 at THE SHOPHOUSE.

  • Hong Kong Hong Kong (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

An Alternative Scale

check-in SIDE SPACE compresses the traditional art fair booth into the scale of a suitcase: each gallery presents only what can be carried onboard a plane. Works may be disassembled, packed during transit, and reassembled on site, but every element must fit within the dimensions of standard cabin luggage. By restricting presentations to this radically reduced footprint, check-in SIDE SPACE sharpens curatorial intent, challenging galleries to show only what can withstand such extreme distillation. 

An Alternative Rhythm

Conceived as a nomadic structure, check-in SIDE SPACE is designed to be hosted and reinterpreted by different galleries in different cities. The format echoes the itinerant rhythm of collectors flying into a city for an art fair: arriving with suitcases, rushing between venues and exhibitions—often held in provisional spaces—and swiftly departing. This flavor of mobility and impermanence also draws on Hong Kong’s 走鬼 street vendor culture of the 1960s and 70s. While mirroring the compressed choreography, we slow down the tempo, encouraging genuine encounters with both art and the city.

An Alternative Way of Arriving

check-in SIDE SPACE 2026, hosted by THE SHOPHOUSE, unfolds in Hong Kong’s Starstreet Precinct in Wan Chai—a charming, walkable neighborhood enclave of cafes, small shops, and local galleries. Alongside the suitcase presentations, a peripheral program of events, collaborations, workshops, and performances offers moments of exchange within the city’s social and cultural fabric. For visitors in town only briefly, check-in SIDE SPACE proposes more than just another stop on the circuit—it urges a different mode of arrival.

Opening: March 23, 2026 | 5 – 8 pm

Zheng Zhou: Seeking traces at Kiang Malingue

  • Hong Kong Hong Kong (map)

Zheng Zhou (b. 1969, China) is a painter of instinct, conveying onto canvas observations from the world, as ad hoc as they may be. His strokes, furtive yet decisive, depict an urgency to grasp that mesmeric multitude of the cosmos, the ‘phenomena’ we, or more precisely he, is a witness to. Referencing ‘I Ching’ (“The Book of Changes”), Zheng channels the astronomical, remarking the myriad of components that make up our universe, mimicking its duplicity through his subject range, hues and techniques.

Join us for the preview of Frank Tang’s newly developed work “Akiyoshidai Daydreaming” — a mechanically activated installation developed during his residency at the Akiyoshidai International Art Centre. Rooted in field research on Akiyoshidai — the limestone plateau that holds 350 million years of soil, stone and plant life — Tang fuses printmaking, painting and data visualization into a mechanically activated installation that stretches the limits of two-dimensional practice. The work translates landscape histories and datasets into a data-driven kinetic installation that invites makers to rethink the relationship between human and nature.

We are delighted to launch Knotting Space, a cycle-based curatorial platform in Hong Kong, the first cycle will debut on 23 March to 18 April 2026 at 7/F H Queen’s in Central. Through curated pairings across a diverse scale of practices, each cycle turns the space into a meeting ground for collectors, galleries, institutions, and non-profit organisations.
Knotting Space is conceived as a long-term project that bridges the commercial and charitable projects — a model where audiences are exposed to a wider discourse in the local art ecosystem from emerging to established voices. The debut exhibition Knot I: The Drawing Room and HUA International presents Soft Reality, Hard Dreams will be launched by Director and Curator of Knotting Space, Jims Lam, an independent curator based in Hong Kong who also serves as the curator of the 2026 edition of Pavilion Hong Kong at H Queen’s. With Knotting Space, Lam develops the programmes through deliberate pairings that connect cross-cultural perspectives and cross-regional geographies. He brings together exhibitors with distinct yet compatible approaches, so new readings can emerge through proximity.

The inauguration cycle of a total of four cycles in 2026, KNOT I: The Drawing Room and HUA International titled Soft Reality, Hard Dreams, brings together new and latest works by Vivian Caccuri (b.1986, Brazil), Jinbin Chen (b.1994, China), Mark Justiniani (b.1966, the Philippines), Matina Partosa (b.2000, the Philippines), and Shi Yi (b.1993, China).

Pearl Lam is pleased to present 'Bearing the Unseen', a solo exhibition featuring works by Shanghai-based artist Qiu Anxiong, on view from 23 March to 30 May at our Hong Kong gallery.⁠

'Bearing the Unseen' presents a new body of paintings that imagine a utopian natural world inhabited by displaced animals and human figures, addressing our fractured relationship with nature and our enduring desire to control it.⁠

The word 'Bearing' carries multiple layers of meaning- to hold, to endure, to bear witness, and to strive for control or possession, all gestures linked to human agency and burden. In contrast, 'the Unseen' refers to what lies beyond ordinary perception, inviting us to question our beliefs and to see the world anew. Through Qiu’s poetic vision, animals, once silent sufferers, emerge as profound witnesses to human exploitation, reflecting both our folly and our shared destiny.⁠

  • Hong Kong Hong Kong (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

Co-commissioned by M+ and Art Basel, and presented by UBS, Shahzia Sikander’s 3 to 12 Nautical Miles (2026) is a radiant cinematic tableau, animated from hand-painted images, navigates the enduring currents of power and trade that have shaped the global landscape from the nineteenth century to the modern era. The work will be shown on the M+ Facade every night from Monday, 23 March to Sunday, 21 June 2026. The commission marks the fifth consecutive year of collaboration between M+ and Art Basel, presented by UBS, in activating the M+ Facade.

In '3 to 12 Nautical Miles', Sikander traces the entangled histories of empire, trade, and maritime power that linked the British East India Company, Mughal India, and Qing China. This animation charts the decline of Mughal authority under Akbar II, the internal strains of the Qing dynasty, and the East India Company’s rise from commercial venture to territorial power. Within this context, the work interrogates Britain’s opium cultivation in India, its coercive trade with China, and the First Opium War, exposing the mechanisms of imperial extraction and the deep power asymmetries between Britain and China at the time.

First conceived in 2015 as part of his Curiosity Box - Hometown Tourist project, Guest Room Theater began as an experiment in estrangement — Lam Tung Pang checking into a Wanchai love hotel to wander Hong Kong as a “tourist.”

In 2026, after years of self‑exile in Vancouver, Lam Tung Pang returns to a city transformed by rupture. The “guest room” becomes both shelter and stage: a liminal space where intimacy collides with alienation, and identity is rehearsed under displacement.

Video works and installations unfold across bedroom and living room, weaving memory, exile, and fragile architectures of belonging. Between homeland and diaspora, Lam Tung Pang’s practice exposes how identities are continually forged under rupture and resistance.

Drop by, share the room, share the story.

Yue Minjun: Crab at Tang Contemporary Art

  • Hong Kong Hong Kong (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

Tang Contemporary Art Hong Kong is pleased to present “Crab,” a solo exhibition by renowned Chinese artist Yue Minjun. The exhibition traces back his artistic journey over the past three decades, systematically showcasing his major series, while unveiling new works that expand his distinctive visual language. Yue Minjun’s artistic practice does not follow a linear path; instead, it moves sideways like a crab — shifting across mediums, repeatedly returning to specific motifs, when maintaining tension among multiple directions. The exhibition “Crab” names this nonlinear, non-unidirectional creative structure, metaphorising how the artist “walks on multiple legs” to break free from a singular perspective, thus, examining artistic creation and social reality through multidimensional exploration.

Since the early 1990s, Yue Minjun has established a highly recognisable visual language through his exaggerated, yet closed laughing figures. This “laugh” has been reproduced and interpreted continuously in the global context, nearly becoming his personal signature. However, focusing solely on the smiling face risks overlooking a more crucial structural trait in his work: a flow of thinking that rejects linear progression and travels sideways like a crab.

MASSIMODECARLO is pleased to present A Grass Roof, Lily Stockman's first exhibition in Hong

Kong. Stockman takes her title from an eighth-century poem by the Tang Dynasty Buddhist master Shitou Xiqian, whose Song of the Grass Roof Hermitage makes an audacious claim: "though the hut is small, it includes the entire world." The six new paintings test whether paint might do the same thing. Exploring the phenomenological proposition at the heart of Shitou's poem - where the protagonist dissolves into perceived space through portals of color and permeable boundaries - Stockman's canvases collapse the distinction between interior refuge and infinite expanse. Can a painting contain everything?

The works unfold in a narrow palette of blues and greens - frames nesting within frames, organic shapes blooming and receding, scumbled outlines and slivered shadows creating what Stockman describes as a "permeability" between self and spaciousness.

Opening Reception: Tuesday, March 24, 6-8pm The artist will be present

Walter Price: Pearl Lines at David Zwirner

David Zwirner is pleased to present Pearl Lines, an exhibition of new paintings by New York–based artist Walter Price (b. 1989). Price is known for his richly vibrant paintings and drawings, which bypass strict allegiances to representational or abstract modes. His canvases and works on paper not only experiment freely with color, line, and space but also reveal emphatic shifts in perspective, suggesting scenes and imagery that the artist ultimately leaves for viewers to absorb and contemplate on their own.

This is Price’s first solo exhibition in Asia, and his second with the gallery since he joined David Zwirner in 2024. Price’s work is also included in the 2025–2026 group exhibition MONUMENTS, co-organized and co-presented by The Brick and the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, and curated by Hamza Walker, Kara Walker, and Bennett Simpson.

Nicole Eisenman: Fallen Angels at Hauser & Wirth

  • Hong Kong Hong Kong (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

Nicole Eisenman’s ‘Fallen Angels,’ as the title suggests, is the artist’s most down-to-earth show in years. Comprising eleven recent paintings and three sculptures, the exhibition narrows the field of vision to three sites of middle-class living: home, work, beach. Nearly all of the paintings are easel-sized, while two of the sculptures (made with a table and a chair, respectively, from Eisenman’s studio) feel like accidental readymades, even ex situ. The contraction of scale and contemplative tone stands in contrast to Eisenman’s reputation for crowded tableaux and picaresque social scenes, but the work is no less demanding. Here, figures linger, hesitate, repeat themselves; time settles into familiar spaces. The ambition lies not in spectacle but in attention, in the difficulty of staying with what is close at hand. The first two sites—home and work—have collapsed into each other. The third offers no escape. 

One of these works is not like the others. ‘Fallen Angels’ (2025), the painting that gives the show its title, looks like an alternate movie poster for Wong Kar-wai’s 1995 neo-noir. At first, it seems out of place amid the quiet representations of home and work life, but once you remember that Kar-wai shot the film entirely at night, you realize it’s key to the meaning of the whole exhibition. Look through the window or up at the sky in nearly any of these paintings, and you’ll see it immediately. For Eisenman, the world outside is dark and getting darker.

Mary Weatherford: Persephone at Gagosian

Gagosian is pleased to announce Persephone, Mary Weatherford’s first solo exhibition in Asia, opening at the gallery in Hong Kong on March 24, 2026. In the new paintings on view, Weatherford explores light and color, and pursues her interest in found materials, collage, and neon through a mythological theme that resonates with the changing seasons.

Persephone features luminous paintings in vinyl emulsion paint on linen. Some are augmented by colored neon tubes, seashells, or coral. In Greek mythology, Persephone is stolen from earth to become queen of the underworld; upon her return she presides over springtime renewal. As in the Chinese myth of Nian, a hibernating beast that emerges at year’s end, her story explains the cycle of seasons: when Persephone is abducted by Hades, her mother Demeter’s grief causes all plant life to cease. An eventual compromise requires Persephone to spend part of the year below ground, and the other part on earth, allowing spring flowers to bloom, bees to buzz, and blue summer skies to bring joy. Weatherford’s new series imagines the earthquake of Persephone’s disappearance and her journey into radiance, representing her achievement of new life.

Flowers Gallery Hong Kong is pleased to announce Leviathan, marking the acclaimed

Scottish artist Ken Currie’s second solo exhibition in Asia. Presented in Sheung Wan, a district historically shaped by a maritime and trading past. Currie’s new paintings enter into a quiet dialogue with the area’s longstanding relationship to its harbours.

In this exhibition, Currie explores our human instinctual terror and fascination with the unknown, using what may be found when we look into the depths of real and imagined seas. Two new monumental oil paintings, Immemorial III (2024) and Leviathan (2024), portray colossal, fictitious sea beasts as they appear to charge up through dark waters.

Alongside our presentation at Art Central 2026, The Jeeum Gallery is pleased to present Choi Kichang’s solo exhibition “Everything is going to be alright”, opening in our Central gallery space.

In this exhibition, Choi Kichang revisits the enduring question of what role art can still play in everyday life. Drawing inspiration from minhwa, Korea’s traditional folk painting, the artist reflects on how images once functioned beyond decoration — as gestures of protection, prayer, and hope embedded in daily life.

As the exhibition text notes, Choi’s practice attempts to grasp "an energy that exists but cannot be proven." Through repetition, chance, and material experimentation, he explores what practical use contemporary art might still have in our lives today.

Where Things Give Way, curated by Francesca Marcaccio, brings together five Italian artists in a site-sensitive exhibition presented at Lamma Art Collective on Lamma Island. Conceived during Hong Kong’s art week, the project unfolds as a meditation on gravity, process, and the persistence of matter within a city defined by velocity and vertical expansion. The exhibition inaugurates a new series of curatorial projects in Hong Kong developed by Marcaccio, extending her ongoing engagement with the city through a sustained dialogue between contemporary Italian artistic practices and Hong Kong’s evolving cultural landscape. The exhibition brings together works by Daniele Di Girolamo, Simone Doria, Ado Brandimarte, Federica Vesprini, and Sara Cerquetti, whose practices converge at a shared threshold: the point at which matter becomes vibration and process assumes form.

Wang Yi: The Stars Are Not Afraid to Appear Like Fireflies at HSUHK

  • Hong Kong Hong Kong (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

The Hang Seng University of Hong Kong (HSUHK), in partnership with ArtNext, presents the solo exhibition of acclaimed Chinese contemporary artist Wang Yi(王一), “The Stars Are Not Afraid to Appear Like Fireflies”. Co-curated by Mianco Wong and Sissi Xie, it features recent works from Wang’s iconic Reflection of Shadow series alongside the new Ksana series.

 The exhibition’s title draws from Rabindranath Tagore’s Stray Birds, using “shadow” as a lens to examine how self-awareness forms through light reflections, personal experiences, and societal structures, while true existence often remains elusive. Layered, ephemeral imagery in paintings invites viewers to engage with the dynamics of “seeing and being seen”, prompting reflection on the visible and invisible, the individual and the environment.

The immersive space is designed as an abstract maze of reflective black glass and red bulbs, echoing the venue’s floor-to-ceiling windows and Hong Kong’s layered urban architecture. The red tungsten bulbs suspended in space serve as a metaphor and warning for the era we live, as visitors navigate through the installation, their reflections illuminate, refract, and overlap, heightening awareness of their existence amid forces of resistance and dissolution.

Poet John Giorno (American, 1936–2019) initiated Dial-A-Poem in 1968 to bring poetry into everyday life. Believing that ‘much poetry is intended to be heard, not merely read’, he invited writers, artists, and musicians to contribute works that anyone could access by dialling a hotline. The project later evolved into a gallery installation of telephone sculptures, allowing visitors to listen to randomly selected readings.

In recent years, the project has expanded internationally. Versions developed in France, Mexico, and Brazil showcase works by local makers in their own languages. Dial-A-Poem Hong Kong features newly recorded readings in Cantonese, Mandarin, and English by approximately thirty local poets, including Bei Dao, Cao Shuying, Tim Tim Cheng, Chow Hon Fai, Derek Chung, Olivier Cong, Ho Fuk Yan, Hon Ki Chau, Huang Canran, Kitty Hung, Stuart Lau, Louise Law, Liu Wai Tong, Lok Fung, Luk Wing-yu, Isadora Neves Marques, Wong Hin Yan, Jennifer Wong, Nicholas Wong, Peace Wong, Sonia Wong, Xixi, Yam Gong, Yasi, Yau Ching, Eric Yip, and Zheng Danyi, and more.

Hong Kong Film Awards Best Picture Twilight of the Warriors: Walled In is not just a story of the Walled City; it is also a Hong Kong story.

Audiences found the more than 50 sets in the film stunning.

The classic sets of the film are now located on the original sites of the Walled City – the present Kowloon Walled City Park. To re-create daily life in the Walled City, this movie set exhibition has been meticulously crafted with immersive designs and elements of traditional crafts. Visitors can also experience the sights and sounds of airplanes flying low over the Walled City through large projections.

This exhibition showcases not only the movie sets but also the outstanding creativity and craftsmanship of Hong Kong film professionals. Let us immerse ourselves in this cinematic journey and explore the Walled City and the charm of Hong Kong movies.

Heri Dono and Wael Shawky: Chorus at M+

Heri Dono and Wael Shawky: Chorus at M+

  • Hong Kong Hong Kong (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

This exhibition brings together two thought-provoking works from the M+ Collection by artists Heri Dono (Indonesian, born 1960) and Wael Shawky (Egyptian, born 1971). Both artists explore how civilisations evolve and intertwine, drawing on enduring traditions such as mythology and folk tales, oral storytelling, and theatre. These forms do not merely connect us to the past—they invite us to imagine alternative futures beyond the relentless drive of economic progress and modernisation.

Wael Shawky’s video work I Am Hymns of the New Temples (2023) delves into humanity’s beginnings and the construction of national narratives. Set among the ruins of Pompeii, actors wearing handmade ceramic and papier-mâché masks move through the remnants of the city, situated at the ancient crossroads of exchange between Egyptian, Greek, and Roman cultures. The work reinterprets shared creation myths and theatrical traditions to explore our need to make sense of the world through storytelling, and the way these narratives are adapted and reshaped for national purposes.

Heri Dono’s kinetic installation Fermentation of the Mind (1992–1993) resembles a classroom, featuring rows of old wooden desks topped with white fibreglass heads. When activated by a pedal, the heads nod in unison and emit distorted chanting sounds. The work is inspired by Indonesia’s sociopolitical landscape in the early 1990s, particularly the state’s influence on public opinion and independent thought through propaganda. Drawing on the rich Javanese tradition of wayang kulit (shadow puppetry), Dono uses satire to reflect on history, society, and culture.

This exciting, family-friendly exhibition explores contemporary design and its hidden impacts on our everyday actions, like walking, eating, and sitting. It reveals how design can improve our lives, influence our behaviours, and foster human connections. General director Taku Satoh (Japanese, born 1955), video director Yugo Nakamura (Japanese, born 1970), and music director Shuta Hasunuma (Japanese, born 1983) invited designers and artists to respond to the exhibition’s ideas, resulting in a variety of activities: hands-on games, interactive installations, and immersive audiovisual rooms.

Myths, Monsters, and Manga: The Art of Fantasy in Asia at M+

  • Hong Kong Hong Kong (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

Myths, Monsters, and Manga: The Art of Fantasy in Asia explores the role of fantasy in the evolution of Asian visual culture and its global impacts. Spanning from the nineteenth to twenty-first centuries, the exhibition presents fantasy as a potent creative tool for artists to respond to shifting sociopolitical conditions. Through imaginative stories, characters, and worlds, these artists confront complex realities that resonate with contemporary experiences. This groundbreaking exhibition reveals the links between a wide range of genres and styles, highlighting historical connections that have rarely been explored.

Unfolding across four chapters, the exhibition begins with pre-modern traditions such as Japanese ukiyo-e woodblock prints, Indonesian shadow puppetry, and Tibetan Buddhist scrolls. These traditions helped establish fantasy as a foundational element of Asian visual culture. Chapters two and three trace major twentieth-century developments, including the spread of Surrealism through Asia and the post-war emergence of Japanese manga and anime. The final chapter presents the explosion of fantastical anime aesthetics in art, design, architecture, film, fashion, video games, and digital culture around the world that continues to the present day. It shows how these creative forms move fluidly across disciplines and regions in the twenty-first century.

Tai Kwun Conversations: The West's Encounter with China

This talk will focus on Chinoiserie – the distinctive 17th- to 18th-century European aesthetic inspired by Chinese culture – and Chinese export watercolours from the mid-19th to early 20th centuries. Examining works of art from two renowned European collections, museum curators will explore the layers of meaning surrounding the early reception, reimagining, and interpretation of Chinese art in Europe.

Whether conceptualising China as a place of exoticism and otherness or attempting to make sense of China's cultural differences for Western audiences, these featured artworks reveal various perspectives that tell us as much about the West's self-perception as they do about China. Join us on a journey through the institutional history of art acquisition, where we will address critical issues such as collecting policy, cultural authenticity, knowledge representation, and decolonisation.

The conversation will be conducted in English with English-Cantonese simultaneous interpretation.

Durational Performance | hope nope hope at WMA Space

Hello! It’s me, Pollyanna again! I’ve recently noticed some people at the WMA exhibition space who seem to be imitating me! There are a few of them, and they’re kind of ‘malfunctioning’ in the same way I am. One moment they’re overflowing with positive energy and cheering so passionately. The next moment they’re each ‘leaking air’ in a corner somewhere.

They switch back and forth along that super thin line between hope and nope. After a deafening shout of ‘You’ve got this!’, they go back to the corner like their battery is in the red, so drained they even have to save their smiles. When hope becomes formulaic and encouragement becomes a performance, positive energy stops being a simple question of to cheer or not cheer. It starts revealing how this language of motivation is produced and received in real life, and how it can even become the starting point of despair.

After a series of investigations, I’ve already tracked down the dates and times when they will show up. You can drop by anytime during their appearance-whether you just want to quietly visit the exhibition, or want to be hit by a wave of positivity, or want to personally confirm whether they are a ‘cheer-up squad’ or a ‘deflate squad,’-stay for a few minutes, wander in and out, experience the exhibition in your own way, or even slip into the performance yourself.

Guest Insights | Chosen: Holok Chen &amp; Gabriel Lee at WMA Space

Guest Insights | Chosen: Holok Chen & Gabriel Lee at WMA Space

• How do all things—vast as galaxies or small as bodies—move under the push and pull of inner and outer gravities?  

• Must one wander through distortion and darkness before hope can reappear?

Next Thursday and on a weekend in December, Guest Insights welcomes the re-debut of artist duo 'Chosen' for a performance responding to the exhibition ‘The Orbit of Hope’, articulating the works through a delicate weaving of bodily forms.

This enactment explores the dual polarities of existence, where the painstaking quest for peace conjures shifts in identity. On the border between the ephemeral instant and infinite cosmos, or within the present world’s dim, contorted, and conflicted expanse, how might one reorient life’s course through the planetary gaze?

The culmination invites all to a guided meditation and contemplative sharing, a still moment for reflection and collective breath. The artist collective 'Chosen' emerges from speculative fabulation and 'void punk' artist Holok Chen, alongside critic and Kohn dancer Gabriel Lee.

Session 1: 27 Nov 2025 (THU), 7:30 pm

Session 2: 20 Dec 2026 (SAT), 2:30 pm (Language: Cantonese)

Please, register in advance.

Alexandra Unrein: Street Art Stories at Goethe-Institut

Alexandra Unrein: Street Art Stories at Goethe-Institut

If you are into street art and graffiti in Hong Kong, you may find the name and the face of Alexandra Unrein (Alex) familiar. Alex, aka streetartorama, is a street art photographer, tour guide and author. Over her 15 years of dwelling in Hong Kong, she has immersed herself in the vibrant world of street art, conducting personal interviews and capturing the essence of the city through her lens.

Lately, she has taken up another daunting task of self-publishing a book on Hong Kong Street Art. Self-publishing means a process of taking on all roles of a traditional publisher, from writing and editing to design, from marketing to distribution. For Alex, it also means selecting her own photographs, communicating with the artists she interviewed and flying between Berlin, where her designer and adviser lives, and Hong Kong, where the printing and distributing will take place.

While the journey of self-publishing might not be as colourful as the street art in Hong Kong, it is for sure exciting if not unnerving. Whether you are interested in Hong Kong Street art or you are planning to self-publish your own photobook, we welcome you to join the sharing and Book Launch with Alex on 25th October.

Sharing: 365 days - My incredible Journey of Self-Publishing Time: 15:00 - 16:00

Book Launch - COLOURFUL HONG KONG – STREET ART STORIES Time: 17:00 - 19:00

Closing Gathering with a Performance by Sam Lui and Wendy at Para Site

Over the past two months at Para Site’s 10/F space, Sam Lui has devoted her residency tothe  reflection and retelling of ‘Wendy’s Wok World’—a persona-driven project thatunpacks the  disciplinary world of wok-cooking alongside questions of purity, secrecy, andauthenticity. Through the Bad Purity Book Club and her studio research, Sam hascollected and deepened her conception of how authority and identity are performed,fractured, and concealed.

In this closing gathering, Sam is joined by Wendy, who rarely appears at the same time.When both are present in the same room—artist and persona, self and other—what kind ofdialogue emerges? What is purity to them, what secrets do they carry, and where doesauthenticity reside? Blending narratives, (auto)biographies, and performances, Saminvites us to witness these layered conversations take shape.

This gathering also marks the final day of Sam’s residency, a chance to bring togetherfriends and communities in celebration. Join us to close this chapter together.

Visiting Artist-in-Residence: Min-Jia at HART

Visiting Artist-in-Residence: Min-Jia at HART

  • Hong Kong Hong Kong (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

As part of the ongoing artist residency, an Open Studio will be held at HART Haus, where visitors are invited to preview Min-Jia’s artistic process and encounter a selection of works developed over time. This intimate presentation offers a rare behind-the-scenes look at the artist’s creative journey before the exhibition opens at PODIUM, highlighting the reflections, gestures, and craft that shape her artistic language.

On this occasion, two kinetic shadow puppets from Min-Jia’s ongoing series Mother I–IV (2024–2025) will be on view. Conceived as a cycle recalling the four seasons, the Mother works embody the perpetual interplay of birth, death, and renewal through spectral, backlit figures whose mechanical forms cast uncanny silhouettes. In Mother II (Winter), chilling blue tones and braided strands twist into gyrating forms that evoke serpents and aeroplanes, conjuring rhythms of migration and cycles of transformation. In Mother IV (Summer), the figure proliferates into a hybrid moth with oscillating antennae, embodying both vitality and restraint, as straps and belts twist its body into tension. Together, these works capture Min-Jia’s exploration of cyclical existence, where life and lifelessness, bondage and renewal, are held in fragile balance.

Open Studio: 11-13.9.2025

Venue address: 3/F Cheung Hing Industrial Building, 12P Smithfield, Kennedy Town
