The Peninsula Hong Kong has announced the launch of its 2025 “Art in Resonance” programme, continuing its mission to champion emerging and mid-career artists since the programme’s inception in 2019. Opening during Hong Kong Art Week, this innovative showcase features commissioned works from Hong Kong artists Phoebe Hui and Chris Cheung (widely known as h0nh1m), alongside Shanghai-based artist Lin Fanglu, in partnership with the Victoria and Albert Museum (V&A). From late March through May 2025, these boundary-pushing works will transform The Peninsula Hong Kong’s public spaces, offering both hotel guests and art enthusiasts an opportunity to experience contemporary art at the iconic flagship hotel.

700 years ago, famed Italian explorer Marco Polo embarked on a journey to China, driven by a desire to unravel the mysteries of foreign cultures and traditions. One of the era’s most famous mercanti (merchants), Marco Polo also became the premier cultural ambassador between the two countries – which have subsequently continued their exchange of art, literature, technology, and cuisine.
