Episode 71 of ‘All About Art’: Art in Hong Kong with Enid Tsui (in collaboration with Lund Humphries)

In this episode, I sat down with Enid Tsui, author of Art in Hong Kong, a book recently published as part of the Hot Topics in the Art World Series by Lund Humphries and Sotheby’s Institute of Art.

The book offers a fascinating analysis of the history, current status and possible future of Hong Kong as an international art hub, written by a local journalist who has reported on the city’s cultural landscape for many years.

I speak to Enid about her experience as a journalist, and her current role as the Arts Editor for the South China Morning Post. I ask her about why she felt now was an important time to be writing this book on art in Hong Kong. We chat about her thoughts on the emergence of Art Basel Hong Kong, which started in 2012, along with the opening of the museum M+ in 2021 (to which she dedicates a whole chapter in her book). We talk about the artists of Hong Kong and she delves into some of their stories, along with where she sees the future of Hong Kong’s art scene, and so much more.

In this episode, I sat down with Jo Lawson-Tancred, author of AI & The Art Market, a book recently published as part of the Hot Topics in the Art World Series by Lund Humphries and Sotheby’s Institute of Art. The book offers an approachable introduction to AI for art-market professionals, considering AI’s impact on and possible applications within the art world, whether as a business tool or as an artistic medium.

I speak to Jo about the facets she explores in her book, as she writes about the many different ways AI can be implemented in the arts - so we discuss how she approached it. I ask her about what led her to even starting to think about merging the fields of AI and Art. We chat about how different artists are working with the technology, what she foresees in the future of AI and technological advancements, and so much more.
