Police station turns contemporary art space

HONG KONG. Plans to open a major contemporary art space in Hong Kong move a step closer this month when a planning permission request to develop the city’s historic Central Police Station (CPS) compound will be submitted to the Hong Kong government. If approved, the 19th-century site should be transformed into a key, non-profit arts hub, a first for the city which is dominated by privately funded art schemes.

Conversion of Albert Dock into an Art Gallery

By the 1960s, the Albert Dock had been allowed to fall into a state of dilapidation and plans were in place for its demolition.

In 1979 the Director and Trustees of the Tate Gallery were sufficiently inspired by Liverpool’s renaissance to explore the possibilities of establishing a new gallery in the North of England and on this historical site.
