WKCD International Press Day at M+

Hong Kong, 20 March 2023 – Today is the International Press Day of the West Kowloon Cultural District, running in parallel with Art Basel Hong Kong. This is the first official occasion for an international audience and press to visit and experience M+ since its opening during the pandemic in 2021. M+, a museum for visual culture, modern and contemporary art, design, architecture, and the moving image, embraces the entire spectrum of spaces, means of display, and activities related to exhibiting and viewing these media. ­Above all, M+ is a public forum, a built platform for the exchange, encounter and activity of people and art.

Herzog & de Meuron and the Jacques Herzog und Pierre de Meuron Kabinett, Basel announced a donation to M+ of various process materials from key projects in Asia and beyond.
