     The London-based contemporary art gallery, Ben Brown Fine Arts, opened its first overseas art gallery in Hong Kong on Wednesday.

    "The launch comes at a time of great cultural effervescence in Hong Kong, with the city firmly establishing itself on the global art map," said Tamsin Roberts, director of Ben Brown Fine Arts Hong Kong.

    She said that after two very successful shows in Hong Kong, it is a natural progression for Ben Brown Fine Arts to open a permanent gallery, allowing the company to fully engage with the local artistic scene and make the most of the expertise Ben Brown has gathered over the years with regards to this sophisticated market.

    Ben Brown Fine Arts, owned and operated by Hong Kong-born Ben Brown, specializes in multi-disciplinary, high-end Western contemporary arts.

    With two established spaces in London's Mayfair district, the Hong Kong gallery is the third venture by Brown and his first outside of the U.K.

    Located in the Pedder Building in Central, the Hong Kong gallery will open with a group show that features works by several world-renowned artists including Andy Warhol, Gerhard Richter and Pablo Picasso.
