The 3rd edition now since 2007, October Contemporary has evolved into more than just a joint platform for contemporary art in HK. This edition specially brings in all art spaces and groups big and small, emerging and experimental…, not just to show, but think, make and act art.
The month-long program would be a good chance for us to survey the diversity, variety, repetition, strength and problems… of our local art scene.
Check out the month-long program here:
