Hong Kong’s M+ Museum, MoMA sign first-of-its-kind collaboration deal
Hong Kong's M+ museum has entered into a groundbreaking collaboration with New York's Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), marking the first agreement of its kind between the renowned US institution and an Asian counterpart. The memorandum of understanding aims to foster cooperation in areas such as curatorial research, conservation, program sharing, and talent development, signifying a commitment to international cultural exchange and museum development.
This partnership emerges amidst escalating geopolitical tensions and strained Sino-US relations. Separately, M+ announced a special exhibition in December featuring over 200 works by Chinese-French abstract painter Zao Wou-Ki, highlighting Hong Kong's position as holding the largest collection of the artist's work outside of France. The collaboration with MoMA, established in 1929 and home to masterpieces like Van Gogh's "The Starry Night," underscores M+'s growing international presence since its opening in 2021.
