Hong Kong Gets Set For Asia Week Events


Attracting collectors and experts from around the world, the third edition of ‘Asia Week Hong Kong’ will take place from May 27 to June 11. 

Dubbed the Heritage edition, the not-for-profit event brings together leading dealers, auction houses galleries, museums and cultural institutions in the area to create a programme that spans antiquities to contemporary works of art.

The events are free to the public and include private viewings at Christie's, Sotheby's and Bonhams; a lecture by Jessica Harrison-Hall, the British Museum's Chinese ceramics curator; a collectors' roundtable; and a lecture on netsuke and sagemono by dealer Robert Fleischel.

Ahead of their Asian sales in June at Crosshall Manor in Cambridgeshire, auctioneers Lyon & Turnbull are sponsoring the opening ceremony at Hong Kong's China Club in partnership with their sister company Freeman's of Philadelphia.
