which inaugurated sales this
past October; Art Basel
Hong Kong, with a growing
array of international galleries
and artists, such as Olafur
Eliasson, whose work was
presented by Neugerriem-
schneider in 2015; the Mills
Gallery, which late last
year invited Portuguese
graffiti artist Alexandre Farto,
known as Vhils, to carve a
mural in an outside wall of its
space in a redeveloped
textile factory; and Beijing-
headquartered China
Guardian, whose Autumn
Hong Kong auction series
featured 10 sales over
two days at the JW Marriott
Hotel in early October.
