The curated digital exhibition will be available exclusively on Samsung Art Store^[1] and features 20 contemporary artists showcased at Art Basel Hong Kong, being held March 27-29 at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre. At a dedicated booth, Samsung will demonstrate how its Micro RGB, OLED^[2] and The Frame Pro display each artwork in stunning detail.

The collection will be featured in stunning 4K resolution on Samsung Art Store starting today, continuing Samsung’s longstanding partnership with Art Basel and extending the experience of the fair beyond the exhibition halls to audiences worldwide.

Introducing the Art Basel Hong Kong 2026 Collection

The Art Basel Hong Kong 2026 Collection features 25 artworks from 20 emerging and established artists represented by eight prestigious galleries: Bank, CLC Gallery Venture, Don Gallery, Tomio Koyama, Pearl Lam, Lin & Lin, Rossi & Rossi and Vacancy.

The carefully curated collection reflects the cultural dynamism and diverse viewpoints that define Hong Kong’s contemporary art scene. Highlights include:

• Chinese artistic heritage and innovation, represented through works by 11 Chinese artists spanning six decades of contemporary practice.
• Michael Najjar, “Europa” (2016). Najjar is a German painter and trained astronaut who is scheduled to participate in an upcoming spaceflight aboard Virgin Galactic’s VSS Unity.
• Sun Yitian, “Ken” (2023). Yitian’s work has been featured in major international collections, including a collaboration with Nicolas Ghesquière for Louis Vuitton’s Pre-Fall 2024 collection.
• Ha Bik Chuen, “Wheatfield A” (1994) and “Untitled” (1995). Chuen was a self-taught contemporary artist whose extensive archive spanning 500 boxes is being digitally catalogued by the Asia Art Archive for scholarly access.

“Art Basel Hong Kong is always looking for ways to broaden how people experience art,” said Angelle Siyang‑Le, Director of Art Basel Hong Kong. “Our partnership with Samsung helps bring art into our homes in a way that feels both accessible and truly high‑quality. It’s not about replacing the gallery — it’s about giving more people the chance to live with great art every day.”

Celebrating Cultural Legacy: The Lee Kun-Hee Collection

During Art Basel Hong Kong 2026, Samsung will also present a curated selection of 20 works from the Lee Kun-Hee Collection on Samsung Art Store, in partnership with the National Museum of Korea. Recognised as one of Korea’s most significant private art collections, the works from the late Samsung Chairman Lee Kun-Hee’s renowned art collection reflect a long-standing commitment to cultural preservation and public access.

These treasured pieces — including “Sun, Moon, and Five Peaks,” “Ten Symbols of Longevity” and “Scholar’s Accoutrements in a Bookcase” — have shaped artistic discourse across generations and continue to resonate with contemporary art circles.

The selection will be available on Samsung Art Store through January 2027, offering global audiences digital access to important works of Korean artistic heritage.

The National Museum of Korea and the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art are also co-hosting “Korean National Treasures: 2,000 Years of Art,” the second overseas touring exhibition of the late Chairman Lee Kun-Hee’s donations, at The Art Institute of Chicago through July 5.
