Three major art events take place in-person in Hong Kong
Three major in-person events recently took place in the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre.
Art Basel Hong Kong 2021, Art Central, and Christie’s Hong Kong Spring Auctions 2021 all took place over a period of ten days.
International exhibitors and buyers were still unable to attend, so were replaced by a greater showing of local and regional art.
Monica Lee-Müller, managing director of Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Management Limited, is confident in the progressive recovery of Hong Kong’s exhibition industry as the local pandemic situation improves.
She said: “We are grateful to the event organisers, who worked with us to shape the new normal. We had a fabulous week at the HKCEC, having three prestigious art events under one roof to re-energise the art scene and create a unique synergy.

Cape Town - The police management have confirmed that they have made “great strides” to overcome the backlog in DNA testing while the system to track and trace forensic exhibits was now fully up and running.
Police spokesperson Vish Naidoo said that followed a reported disappearance of millions of forensic exhibits at the National Forensic DNA Database due to the Property Control and Exhibit Management (PCEM) system being shut down by the service provider in June 2020.
Naidoo said in fact those exhibits were stored in the Forensic Service Laboratory Administration System and could only be accessed manually.
