Art events company Creo today announced they will introduce a new photography fair in Hong Kong next year.
PHOTOFAIRS Hong Kong will take place on the city’s harbour front in Central from 26 to 30 March, rubbing shoulders with existing art fairs Art Central (26–30 March) and Art Basel Hong Kong (28–30 March).
The new fair will be led by Fan Ni, director of PHOTOFAIRS Shanghai, which takes place in May.
‘We are so pleased to bring PHOTOFAIRS to Hong Kong and to continue our mission to create spaces for the discovery and cultivation of photography in the Asia Pacific region,’ Fan Ni said.
