leading contemporary art galleries - half from Asia and Asia-Pacific - in the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre (HKCEC).
The fair comprises six sectors: Galleries, Insights, Discoveries,
Encounters, Film and Magazines and together they display a wide range of works including painting, sculpture, photography, video and institutional-scale pieces. Art Basel Hong Kong is open to the public from 15-17 March 2015.
