MGM Partners with Art Basel Hong Kong to Present “Long Time No See” in Hong Kong
MGM and Art Basel Hong Kong presented the “Long Time No See” Sector Party, an art and cultural celebration hosted by Pansy Ho, Co-Chairperson and Executive Director of MGM China Holdings Limited, together with Angelle Siyang-Le, Director of Art Basel Hong Kong. The partnership kick-started one of Hong Kong’s first major art and cultural occasions sponsored by MGM during the Art Basel week at the Forty-Five, a newly launched venue at The Landmark in Central with a rooftop overseeing the spectacular view of Hong Kong. The night of extravaganza saw a stellar line-up of some of the most renowned art and cultural figures, fashion icons, music and movie industry leaders such as Pharrell Williams, Li Xiaopeng, Adrian Cheng, Edwin Chuang, Eva Chow and alike.
With arts, culture, entertainment and performance at the core of the MGM brand, MGM is collaborating with Art Basel Hong Kong, one of the world’s premier art shows for modern and contemporary art, to represent a natural course of this long-term strategic vision for fruitful, ongoing initiatives in the art and culture realm. With Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macau sharing same cultural roots, “Long Time No See” Sector Party was a special occasion that deepened the cultural exchanges in the Greater Bay Area (GBA), and strengthened its connection to the world with over 1,000 local and international visitors from the art and culture, entertainment and performance world that attended the event.
Pansy Ho said, “MGM endeavors in bringing unique art and cultural experience fusing tradition with innovation and connecting the East with the West. We aim to engage with our global audiences through building an extensive network of arts and culture with Art Basel Hong Kong, which is an integral part of our longstanding commitment to global art and cultural development and our effort to help Macau achieve economic diversification. Our long and successful partnership with Art Basel Hong Kong will reinforce the GBA’s position in promoting art and cultural exchange between the East and West.”
Besides inviting high caliber VIPs of Art Basel Hong Kong to visit Macau to explore the charm of UNESCO World Heritage sites and the creative gastronomic scene, MGM has organized a group of VIP delegation from Macau with Ho Iok San, representative of the President of the Consultative Committee for Cultural Development (CCDC) and Chief of Office of Secretary for Social Affairs and Culture; Leong Vai Man, Vice President of CCDC and Director of Cultural Affairs Bureau (IC); Lo Ho Chi, committee member of CCDC and representative of Office of Secretary for Social Affairs and Culture; Cheang Kai Meng, Deputy Director of IC, well as other committee members of CCDC and management representatives of IC, to Art Basel Hong Kong. MGM hopes to give fresh impetus on the rising global art trend and create opportunities for Macau cultural leaders for dialogue and engagement with established artists and new emerging talents from around the globe.
