Beirut Explosion Devastates City and Cultural Community

Imagining the Impossible • In 2020, the Point examines how our cultural and sociopolitical systems are implicated in climate change, and what actions the arts industry can take. For this issue, we invited Lucas Ihlein and Kim Williams to reflect on the process of helping the Biennale of Sydney review its environmental practices.

Hang Ten

Gaylord Chan, 1925–2020

Bumpy Recovery • Following months of delays, Hong Kong’s first live auctions of 2020 took place in early July, days before the city tightened public-gathering restrictions amid a third wave of Covid-19 cases. With mandatory quarantines and entry bans still in effect, most lots were purchased by remote bidders. While Sotheby’s and Phillips enjoyed robust sales, results were mixed for other houses.

New Protocols • More than half a year since Covid-19 struck, galleries have become accustomed to the virtual fair format, as exemplified by robust results from Art Basel’s latest online iteration. However, the success of Unscheduled, a small, impromptu fair held in Hong Kong during a brief window of public reopenings between spikes in infections, affirmed the importance of IRL events.
