Art Market Monitor

The Hong Kong art fair is growing with the appetite for art in Asia. Art HK10 will be held May 27-30. Georgina Adam reports in the Financial Times that the gallery count has been climbing as more dealers want access to Asian clients:

The final line-up has just been released and boasts 53 newcomers, bringing the total to 145, well up on last year’s 116. Among the big-hitters dipping their toes in Hong Kong harbour waters this time are Hauser & Wirth, Lehmann Maupin, Pace Beijing, Sperone Westwater and Arndt.
