With over a decade of experience under its belt, the ever-popular Fine Art Asia made a triumphant return at the HK Convention and Exhibition Centre.


Among the VIP attendees celebrating the launch of the exhibition was Hong Kong’s Chief Executive, Mrs. Carrie Lam. She is a familiar face at the event, having officiated the opening of Fine Art Asia for the past five years in a row.


Lam took a turn of the floor and admired collections of Himalayan art, Mongolian artefacts and French Impressionist paintings.


While viewing some historic china pieces at the Jorge Welsh Works of Art, London and Lisbon booth, Lam commented, “These export porcelains verify the concept of the ‘One Belt One Road’ initiative, and are evidence of the 100 years of cultural exchange along the silk sea route.”


Fine Art Asia remained open for four days, allowing Hong Kong’s art lovers a rare opportunity to view a smorgasbord of artistic mediums spanning over 5,000 years from every corner of the world.
