Kwai Fung Salone: Enjoy Collecting

EVENT DESCRIPTION

Art collecting is more than buying artworks.

Collecting is not only the building of ownership in desired objects, serious collectors will find their hobbies a channel for the cultivation of curiosity, discovery, knowledge and aesthetics, which together offer an engaging and rewarding life style and a noble cultural attitude. Collecting requires passion as well as good judgment, perhaps even before money. It is therefore an interestingly complicated process and further it does need input of financial resources, in short, a challenging game.

Kwai Fung Salone is delighted to present symposium ENJOY COLLECTING this December, the fourth event of its Art Talk series after the successful episodes in August and November.

We are very honored to have the participation of four heavy-weight speakers: Mr. Henry Tang Ying-yen (Chairman of the Board of The West Kowloon Cultural District Authority), Mr. Robert C. Tang (Board Member of Hong Kong Palace Museum), Mr. Kevin Ching (Consultant Chairman Emeritus for Sotheby’s Asia) and Mr. Larry Zhu (Partner, Bain & Company).

In the morning session, Mr. Henry Tang will speak about how artworks have a way to broaden our mind and thoughts, and Mr. Robert Tang will share with us his reminiscence as a collector.

In the afternoon session, Mr. Ching will analyse the global auction market and what makes art valuable, and Mr. Zhu will give an overview of art in the digital era. It is an absolutely rare opportunity for us to learn from these experts in one go and to take away intelligent tips on the ‘Dos and Don’ts’ in collecting.
