Christie's expands Hong Kong footprint in hope of art market 'pickup'
Auction house Christie's opened its regional headquarters in Hong Kong on Sept. 20, 2024 as its Asia Pacific chief predicted a sales 'pickup' despite a global art market weighed down by wary sellers. Christie's is the third major auction house in recent years to expand their footprint in the Chinese finance hub in a bid to woo younger Asian buyers, following rivals Phillips and Sotheby's.
