New Hong Kong fairs offer fresh opportunities for a changing market

Hong Kong Art Week 2026 features several new art fairs offering alternative models to traditional events. ArtHouse Tai Hang, led by former Christie's executive Jacky Ho, displays works across ten locations in a residential neighborhood with a pay-only-if-sold financial model. Check-in, organized by Alex Chan, requires all artworks to be suitcase-sized and includes daily performances. Pavilion, founded by Ysabelle Cheung and Willem Molesworth, presents a boutique, curated alternative to high-pressure fairs.
