Shows Shi Yiran and Huang Baoying: Here and Then Ferris Gallery Shenzhen August 18–November 8 Life is a series of departures, whether voluntary or not. Some choose to embark on journeys that take them to new heights, while others are compelled to flee in a haze, leaving no trace.

Market Amid Hong Kong’s sweltering August heat, a new trading floor for art, ART021, has rung its opening bell, disregarding the stagnant global market.

Spanning five sections across the city, its main hub occupied three floors of Phillips’s Asia headquarters in the West Kowloon Cultural District Authority (WKCDA) Tower, across from Hong Kong’s M+ museum.
