In an exchange of programming between galleries, Frida Orupabo , Mawande Ka Zenzile, Simphiwe Ndzube and Thenjiwe Niki Nkosi exhibit at Kiang Malingue’s Tin Wan space in Aberdeen, Hong Kong. Simultaneously, a show of works by Tao Hui, Tromarama and Wang Zhibo takes place at Stevenson in Amsterdam.

For all four artists from Stevenson’s programme this show marks their Hong Kong debut, each presenting artworks that articulate the key concerns of their respective practices.

The conversation about this joint project started when Stevenson partner Joost Bosland and Lorraine Kiang met through the organizing committee of the International Galleries Alliance. The galleries shared an interest in alternative models for global reach that are open to midsize galleries, beyond digital presentations and art fairs. One prime asset that all galleries already have is their physical spaces, designed and maintained with great care. Sharing this asset in specific strategic ways as well as their networks and highly specialised knowledge of the local audience allows them to thrive in ways that are particularly in tune with what art is all about.
