Aesop Art Guide Hong Kong

Hong Kong’s creative industries are buoyed both by a grassroots community of individuals committed to preserving and showcasing the city’s talents, and by the interest and commitment of international galleries, investors and collectors. The introduction of art fairs like Art Basel and Art Central, as well as internationally recognised institutions like the acclaimed M+ museum, have bolstered its position, but beyond the fairs and bigname institutions is an art ecosystem comprising active, engaged local artists, art professionals and creative communities.

With this in mind, we’ve compiled a guide to some of our favourite Hong Kong art destinations. Some you may be familiar with, others less so. And while this list is by no means exhaustive, we trust it will be a handy companion and inspire further exploration.

Many of the places in this guide are part of a broader creative enclave, so, as with many of Hong Kong’s best locations, a wander around the neighbourhood will reward the curious flâneur.

Just as we do with other Aesop publications, we turn to the five senses to help categorise the locations in this guide. When hosting customers in our stores, we invite them to smell, see, taste, hear and touch, using all of their senses to experience our products and spaces. Art in all its forms is a sensorial experience too, and we invite you to engage your senses in each of these locations.
