About Hong Kong Museum of Art
Its collections make it possible to compare ceramic surfaces, brushwork and more recent visual approaches within one museum. The harbour setting adds a strong sense of place to the galleries.
Choose two contrasting collection themes, such as Chinese antiquities and Hong Kong art, then add a painting or calligraphy gallery if time allows. Individual works rotate for conservation and exhibition purposes, so the collection descriptions are a guide to the museum’s scope rather than a promise that every named object will be on display.
What to look for
- Chinese antiquities include ceramics and other objects with varied forms and decorative techniques.
- Painting and calligraphy collections provide close views of brushwork.
- Modern and Hong Kong art introduces contrasting media and perspectives.
