Contemporary by Angela Li (Insights sector, Hong Kong)
Angela Li left her career in finance in 2001 to try her hand as an art consultant before opening her eponymous gallery in 2008. Li’s focus on emerging and mid-career artists based primarily in Hong Kong has served the Hollywood Road gallery well; her roster is among the most sought-after in the city. Recent standout shows include ‘Cabinet of Curiosities’, featuring Wong Sze Wai’s object-laden cityscapes and ‘moments in layered motion’, focusing on Cheung Tsz Hin’s luminous snapshots of everyday life. At Art Basel Hong Kong, Li will present a survey of renowned multidisciplinary artist Yuk-Keung Kurt Chan’s more than 30-year career.
