随着艺术界纷纷来到香港，参加为期5天的巴塞尔艺术展(Art Basel)，以及令人眼花缭乱的卫星展览，让人眼花缭乱，艺术品市场屏住了呼吸，不知道与去年的疯狂相比，该地区的经济放缓是否会导致销售额减少。

然而，严肃的艺术爱好者显然找到了灵感的时刻-尤其是在最高端，这要归功于大卫·兹沃纳(David Zwirner)的米哈·尔·博雷曼斯(Micha L Borremann)等雄心勃勃的作品(他的五幅画都在第一天卖给了亚洲收藏家)，以及伊朗艺术家希拉泽赫·胡夏里(Shirazeh Houshiary)在新加坡泰勒印刷

在其他地方，中间市场的画廊，他们的作品明显没有去年那么耀眼，他们发现这些画廊的运作更具挑战性。尽管如此，仍有一些宝石有待发现，包括韩国艺术家韩敬雅的声明-为五个城市制作吊灯，这是朝鲜纺织工人秘密创作的一批挂毯。

画廊的林明珠上演了一场精彩的演出，包括安东尼·米卡列夫(Antony Micallef)的“红色自画像”(Self With Red)在内的大量混合媒体。

然而，与往年一样，一些最具创新性的文化产品在主展销会之外被发现。必须看到的包括艺术家吴曾(音译)在春季工作室的超现实电影装置，这是她对1907年被清政府斩首的一名汉族革命家进行的长达十年的研究；以及艺术中心杜德尔斯(Duddells)与达拉斯艺术博物馆(Duddells)的合作，展示了新兴艺术家李玛格丽特(Margaret Lee)的作品。

与此同时，日本艺术家达索米雅岛的不朽时光瀑布般的灯光设施与笼罩在九龙站国际商贸中心的大雨云进行了战斗，而在海港的同一面，英国艺术家康拉德·沙沃克罗斯(ConradShawcross)在半岛酒店吸引了宾客。

艺术中心的僵硬

随着这座城市发生了这么多事情，巴塞尔艺术展(Art Basel)宣布打算将重点从艺术展扩大到帮助一些全球地点(尚未公布)来开发它们的文化景观，这一点也就不足为奇了。
