A Global Spectrum of Styles at Asia Society’s Sculpture Show

*RASHEED ARAEEN*’s _Hong Kong Blues_ (2018), a cobalt-blue geometric complex made of stainless steel, was commissioned for the city’s Harbour Arts Sculpture Park in 2018. Araeen’s lattice-cube structures are representative of the artist’s abstract geometric style, which reflects both his formal training in civil engineering and his response to American Minimalism.

Hosted by the Asia Society Hong Kong Center (ASHK) and co-organized with the Hong Kong Art Gallery Association (HKAGA), the six-month-long Sculpture Exhibition comprises 21 works scattered throughout the leafy, oasis-like premises. Devised in the wake of mass event cancellations due to Covid-19, the exhibition showcases for-sale sculptures offered by 18 galleries. Here’s a peek at some of the sculptures on view across ASHK’s indoor and open-air areas.
