Asia Art Archive Annual Fundraiser 2023

EVENT DESCRIPTION

Asia Art Archive (AAA)’s 2023 Annual Fundraiser features an auction of over 55 works, generously donated by artists, galleries, and individuals. Following the recent expansion of its library, Asia Art Archive continues to grow its Collections, research, and programmes with a renewed focus and broader reach. The fundraiser provides a vital source of funding to support free public access to these resources on the histories of contemporary art in Asia. In partnership with Christie’s Hong Kong, a preview of the artworks on auction will be open to the public from 25 to 27 October. The works will be available for bidding online at www.aaa2023auction.com from 25 October to 10 November.

In 2023, Asia Art Archive develops new Collections and research projects in Hong Kong, mainland China, Taiwan, Southeast Asia, South Asia, and more. With the Hong Kong Room established as a permanent space in AAA’s library, a series of projects focused on the city’s contemporary art history will commence in late 2023. One of the projects is “Recalling Disappearance: Hong Kong Contemporary Art,” supporting research, writing, and discussions on Hong Kong art history through a holistic approach.
