Sotheby’s opens new maison in Hong Kong
It features immersive exhibitions and retail across art, luxury, and collectibles.
Sotheby’s will officially open its new 24,000 square-foot flagship Maison at LANDMARK CHATER in Central, Hong Kong on 27 July.
The ground floor of the new space offers a high-tech, museum-quality viewing area, whilst the first floor houses Sotheby’s Salon, a curated retail space showcasing over 200 objects from various categories, including art, design, and antiques. Prices range from HK$5,000 to HK$50m. The Maison is designed to attract more than 1.3 million visitors each month.
Architectural firm MVRDV collaborated on the project, bringing a bold, innovative design that complements Sotheby’s vision.
“Our vision is to build a space that expands the curiosity and imagination: from dinosaur fossils to handbags, contemporary design furniture from Africa to old master drawings from Italy, rare movie posters to Picasso ceramics, Korean contemporary craft to rare vintage watches, gothic sculptures to contemporary jewellery designs, ancient Chinese art to rare books and manuscripts, contemporary art to samurai armour,” said Nicolas Chow, Chairman of Sotheby's Asia.
“There will be something here to inspire and engage both our existing collectors and new audiences alike,” he added.
Current exhibitions include “Bodhi: Masterpieces of Monumental Buddhist Art” and “Ice: Two Masterpieces on Loan from the Long Museum,” featuring works by Gerhard Richter and a rare Chinese ceramic. Sotheby’s will also display Banksy’s “Girl Without a Balloon.”
