“Leave the everyday behind, get away from the well-known and well-trodden and reconnect with something unspoilt in Western Australia” was an invitation to an awesome adventure. From the city of Perth to the Perth Hills and the acclaimed Margaret River region there was plenty to sightsee and fine food and wines to taste. The journey began with a flight, just under seven hours long, and then landing in the exact same time zone as Hong Kong. It was an absolute marvel to see the plane's route on the live flight map, taking a direct path due south to Perth.

Hong Kong's first exhibition of treasures sourced directly from Egyptian museums, featuring works from seven institutions, including the Egyptian Museum in Cairo and recent finds from Saqqara are on show at the The Hong Kong Palace Museum. Ancient Egypt Unveiled: Treasures from Egyptian Museums features more than 250 artefacts spanning 5,000 years. Why does ancient Egypt still command fascination? The obvious answer is that cat mummies are cool, pyramids might be extraterrestrial, and hieroglyphics are as beautiful as Chine

We were reminded once again of Hong Kong's role during World War 2 with the recent discovery at a Quarry Bay construction site of a bomb containing 225kg of high explosives. The bomb was safely removed, but this incident is a poignant reminder that only 80 years ago, thousands of tons of bombs were dropped on our city. To commemorate the end of the war, the Hong Kong Museum of History is hosting United in Arms, Standing for Peace: 80th Anniversary of the Chinese Victory in the War of Resistance, documenting the defense efforts of people in Hong Kong, China, and around the world.

Art plays an enduring role in recording a society’s history. Surprisingly, so does silk. The exhibit History of China in Silk: The Chris Hall Collection at the Hong Kong Palace Museum features silk artefacts from the Eastern Zhou and from most major dynasties since. Chris Hall’s collection of over 3,000 textiles tells stories of technology, trade and commerce, mythology, IP theft, imperial control, religious influence, and technically challenging yet beautifully crafted art. Chris Hall has dedicated nearly fifty years to understanding over 2,300 years of Chinese history; his efforts are worthy of admiration in this curated collection.

Creating a comfortable environment to appreciate art is the aim of the Hong Kong City Art Fair. By hosting a three-day event at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in Central at the end of November, they succeed in removing the formality of a white-cube gallery, instead providing a refined five-star setting to explore, enjoy, and appreciate art. This year's fair is a collaboration among thirty galleries, institutions, and artists from over ten regions, each offering chances to engage with experts, other collectors, and the artists themselves. Consider this your invitation to join this urban art journey.

Master ceramic artist Solan Chiu has spent years forming her unique style. She invents new ways to treat surfaces by using unexpected tools, bringing together old Chinese traditions and modern ideas. Her practice is deeply personal and comparable to writing a biography using clay and glaze instead of a pen. Solan’s artistic journey has been deliberate, from functional pottery to sculptures and large-scale installations. She remains curious, playful, and fiercely independent, all qualities that accumulated through four decades as a self-taught artist.

Pablo Picasso is a name that instantly evokes genius, innovation, and controversy. Born in Málaga, Spain, in 1881, he carried the spirit of his homeland wherever he went. Whether in Paris or on the sunlit shores of the French Riviera, traces of Spain always surfaced in his work. Picasso: Beauty and Drama exhibition at the Grand Lisboa Palace Resort in Macau tells the story of the artist’s Spanish heritage which profoundly influenced his art and life. Picasso’s life was complex and passionate: he ardently fought for peace, fervently pursued his muses, and unapologetically embraced the bloodsport of bullfighting. Somehow, all these influences found their way onto ceramics, lithographs and canvases.

The film Twilight of the Warriors: Walled In depicts the City of Darkness as a main character, a gritty, raw, and nuanced place for an action-packed narrative in the finest Hong Kong-styled film tradition. The shared hardships experienced by the characters in the movie remind us that even the darkest places can bring out the best in people. The movie stirred nostalgia and curiosity for the now-demolished Kowloon Walled City. The exhibition, Kowloon Walled City: A Cinematic Journey Movie Set, features eight rooms displaying remakes of the movie sets alongside authentic relics, provides a sense of what old Hong Kong was like.
