WHAT

At the Christie’s Hong Kong Spring Auction preview, you’re spoilt for choice with fourteen different sales exhibitions (from Wine and Watches, to Modern Art and Chinese paintings). The art auctions typically take place towards the end, which allows more time for viewing. At the previews for the 20th and 21st century art departments, a variety of works from a diverse roster of internationally established artists are presented. One important exhibition highlight is Zhang Daqian’s ‘Temple by the Waterfall’, to be auctioned as part of the 20th and 21st century Art Evening sale. Other important exhibitions include those from the Chinese Ceramics and Works of Art, as well as Fine Chinese Modern and Contemporary Ink Departments. All the works are also fully accessible for online browsing.

WHY
The preview held by the auction house is perfect for both art lovers and collectors alike. Viewers have the opportunity to admire a diverse range of art and art objects in a beautifully-curated setting. Variety is the implicit theme of the auction preview. Covering a variety of themes, time periods, and mediums such as paintings and ceramics, you can even browse the rare handbags and luxury items on offer as well.
