DirectRooms.com – Experience ART HK 10: The Hong Kong International Art Fair

DirectRooms.com can announce that the ART HK 10-Hong Kong International Art Fair is scheduled in May, transforming Hong Kong into more than just an international hub of travellers and cultural sites but also into an international centre for artists and art collectors.

The leading showcase for international Modern and Contemporary Art in Asia, the ART HK 10-Hong Kong International Art Fair showcases over 150 galleries from almost 30 different participating countries, presenting a series of opportunities for collectors, and art enthusiasts, to experience and purchase works of art from artists with an array of geographical diversity not found anywhere else on earth.

The ART HK 10-Hong Kong International Art Fair occurs on May 26th through May 30th, 2010 and participants purchasing tickets prior to May 15th can receive a discount. Finding a Hong Kong hotel nearby might not be easy so early booking is essential.

The amount of art on display here is enormous, with some works in the 2009 Fair consisting of pieces costing from as little as $1,000 up to $10 million. Art HK is considered a catalyst by many in the cultural scene of Hong Kong, and not only involves a number of the leading art institutions, such as Asia Art Active and Para/Site, but it also includes a variety of international participants.

The fair also provides extensive programmes, and debates, in line with its reputation as the largest artistic event in Asia.
