INK ASIA 2017
Third edition of the leading platform for contemporary ink art
returns in December 2017


Ink Asia 2017 – the only international art fair devoted to contemporary ink art, returns for its 3rd edition to the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre from Friday, 15 December to Sunday, 17 December, with a Private Preview and Vernissage on Thursday, 14 December.

Unique Status

Inaugurated in 2015, over the past two years Ink Asia has successfully established its unique status and growing influence as an international art fair specialising in contemporary ink.

The concept of ink art in all its myriad forms has come to the forefront of the Asian art market in the past few years. The first two editions of Ink Asia have offered a variety of perspectives for appreciating ink art, allowing collectors, critics, scholars, the media and art lovers to appreciate the boundless possibilities of contemporary ink art with an open mind.

A Vibrant Forum

Ink Asia presents a range of high-quality ink works through gallery exhibitors as well as panel discussions and academic exchange, resulting in the fair being viewed as the leading platform for contemporary ink art.

Ink Asia 2016 attracted over 10,000 visitors in four days. The fair hosted 50 leading international galleries and academic institutions from Hong Kong, Mainland China, Taiwan and beyond. Exhibitors were delighted with robust sales at the fair.

Exciting New Highlights

In addition to the two main sections of the fair, “Galleries” and “Solo Projects”, the organiser will shortly announce some exciting new thematic exhibitions for the third edition of Ink Asia, in collaboration with renowned galleries and academic institutions. It is anticipated that ground-breaking cross-media masterpieces of ink art will be displayed.

Ink Asia is a platform for both traditional and avant-garde ideas of ink in a productive dialogue between an amazing variety of works of art. The fair emphasises the cultural heritage of China, but equally focuses on the future development of contemporary ink art, which can be appreciated in a cross-cultural global environment.

Fair Director, Calvin Hui, says, “The curatorial focus of Ink Asia 2017 will be “the spirit of ink” and “ink-inspired themes”. We will continue to explore the limitless possibilities of ink art and aim to further expand the dialogue between the academic side and the art market.”
