Summary
William Lim discovered his love for art at an early age. A decade ago he began collecting systematically, concentrating on works by emerging contemporary artists from Hong Kong. Lim consistently follows a strategy of challenging his own boundaries on what is considered collectable, questioning the role of a private collector in response to the artists' creativity and as a bridge to society. Meanwhile, the successful architect also works as an artist and has enriched his hometown by several large-scale, poetic installations. Lim's private collection, which he also opened up to the public during Art Basel Hong Kong, is now considered one of the city's cultural highlights. This publication provides insight into a brilliant multimedia collection and acquaints the reader with innovative works by a young generation of Hong Kong-based contemporary artists.
