Hong Kong hosted its first international modern and contemporary art fair, ART HK 08. Unlike the mainland, there is no tax on the import or export of works of art in Hong Kong, making it an ideal Asian platform for dealers. Auctions by Sotheby's and Christie's flanked the art fair, solidifying Hong Kong's reputation as the region's art marketplace.
