Art in the South Island District Since its foundation in 2013, South Island Cultural District has been changing the art community of Hong Kong. In the old industrial buildings, many local and international galleries have gathered and exhibited art works of different types and origins. The SICD has been a major evolution and improvement to the Hong Kong art scene and the South Island district has become Hong Kong’s new destination for contemporary art. We will visit best quality galleries such as Rossi Rossi, Art Statements, de Sarthe, Pekin Fine Arts and also artist studios!
South Island x Street Art In recent years, street art in Hong Kong has emerged from the shadows to transform the city from the outside in, and one of the promoters has been HKwalls – the one and only street art festival in Hong Kong. In 2017, HKwalls came to Wong Chuk Hang, the up-and-coming art district, and transformed the industrial buildings. In our art walk, we will enjoy the celebration of street art, checking on the colorful murals created by some of the best local and international street art talent.
In the 2.5-hour art walk, you will have the chance to know artworks from Southeast Asia, China, Japan, European and the US hidden in the old industrial buildings. Our art specialist will explain to you how to appreciate contemporary art and how the art market functions in the most fun ways!
