This March, Art Basel Hong Kong returns to the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre, once again anchoring the city’s annual Art Month and serving as a key meeting point for collectors, curators, and artists across the Asia-Pacific region and beyond. The 2026 edition brings together an international roster of galleries presenting modern and contemporary art across a wide range of media, from painting and sculpture to installation, film, and digital works.
With a strong representation of galleries operating in Asia and an increasing number of cross-regional presentations, the fair continues to emphasize dialogue between local and global perspectives. Dedicated sectors such as Encounters, focused on large-scale installations, and Kabinett, which spotlights curated presentations within gallery booths, offer opportunities for deeper engagement with individual artists and themes. This year also sees an expanded focus on digital practices, reflecting the evolving role of technology in contemporary art.
Across the fair, presentations range from historically grounded works to newly commissioned installations that respond to the present moment. Below, Whitewall highlights seven presentations to seek out at Art Basel Hong Kong 2026.

At Jessica Silverman, new works by Judy Chicago translate the artist’s long-standing engagement with color and symbolism into luminous glass lightboxes. Radiating with layered hues, the works extend Chicago’s exploration of visibility, transformation, and feminist histories, presenting a body of work that feels both deeply rooted and newly expansive.

His expressive abstractions reflect a spiritual and intuitive approach to painting, offering insight into a foundational moment in Southeast Asian modernism while resonating with broader global movements.
