Hong Kong, known more for its shopping malls than its museum spaces, has had success in displaying art in commercial areas. French artist Jean-Michel Othoniel recently made a glass bead creation for the Chanel boutique in the Prince's Building. In 2004, a Picasso exhibit was held in the International Finance Center. And in June/July of 2005, Taikooshing's Citiplaza hosted a dinosaur exhibit from China. Claire Hsu of AAA is quoted on the interplay of museums and department stores.
