Para/Site Art Space, Hong Kong’s leading non-profit contemporary art space, proudly announces its annual fundraising auction. Led by Cosmin Costinas, the newly appointed Executive Director/Curator, the event is crucial for the organisation’s next phase of development.

Our efforts of reinventing the role and responsibilities of Para/Site rely on the support and solidarity of a transnational community of artists to which we are dedicated, a community we are helping to build and represent. The selection of artists is not a random line-up, but a map of a great generation of artists working in a new globalized world”.
