As the first thematic exhibition on the Museum’s own remarkable collection, “Passion for Collecting” showcases the spirit of generosity of the Museum’s 12 founding donating parties and their significant contributions to advancing the understanding of Chinese art and culture. Featuring close to 100 objects, the exhibition invites visitors to discover fascinating stories about the donors and their special collecting and artistic journeys, as well as appreciate the aesthetic, historical, and cultural significance of these donated works. To commemorate the HKPM’s grand opening in 2022, many Hong Kong collectors and artists have generously donated their treasures in support of the Museum's mission of promoting Chinese culture. Their incredible generosity has helped lay the foundation for the Museum’s growing collection. In less than two years, the HKPM has received over 1,100 works.
