1. Chloe Ho, Artist
When I get to Art Basel… I’ll go to galleries that feature amazing works by Francis Bacon, Lucian Freud, Willem de Kooning, Fernando Botero, Jackson Pollock, Louise Bourgeois, Kazuo Shiraga and my mentor Wei Ligang. I’m definitely visiting Galerie Gmurzynska, Victoria Miro and Ink Studio–they are all wonderfully curated.
Outside of the fair… I will visit my representing gallery 3812 to see the works of master Hsiao Chin. 3812 has a roster of remarkable contemporary artists working in ink and mixed media. I will drop by Sundaram Tagore Gallery, which is always cutting edge, and visit Liang Yi Museum’s exhibition The Blue Road. It’s of particular interest to me because it explores the colour blue in art, and blue is a signature colour in my work.
A talk I can’t miss… The annual cultural debate from Intelligence Squared.
