ART BASEL
Art Basel stages the world’s premier modern and contemporary art
fairs, presented annually in Basel, Miami Beach, and Hong Kong. A
driving force in supporting the role that galleries play in nurturing the
careers of their artists, Art Basel frequently expands its platforms to
include the newest developments in the visual arts. Supporting the
passion for enhancing the experience of art for all which adds to the
vibrancy of every Art Basel show Shanghai Tang created a special
display at Duddell mansion during Art Basel Hong Kong 2017. In
collaboration with floral artist `Kirk Cheng’ we recreated the `Suzhou
gardens’ that inspired our SS17 collection. The Duddell mansion was
transformed into an animation of the `Suzhou garden’ bringing the
collection to life though floral art.
