CUHK Art Museum Inaugurates the Lo Kwee Seong Pavilion





The Art Museum of The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) held the grand opening ceremony of the Lo Kwee Seong Pavilion and the Harold and Christina Lee Gallery on 21 March. The inaugural exhibition, Transcending Transience: Art and Culture of Late-Ming Jiangnan, is the result of a multi-year collaboration with the Shanghai Museum.
Opening in March 2025 and designed by Dr Yim, an internationally renowned architect, the Art Museum’s new Lo Kwee Seong Pavilion is a cantilevered landmark that perches on a slope of the University’s mountainous terrain. The understated yet elegant design with fair-faced concrete reflects the University’s emphasis on practicality, and the building blends seamlessly into CUHK’s academic environment and natural landscape. This utopia of art and scholarship will accelerate Hong Kong’s growth as an artistic and cultural hub.
The construction of the Art Museum’s new extension enabled the Art Museum to integrate art-making, curating, and teaching, as well as to diversify and enrich the overall museum experience.
