UK National Gallery director says ‘innovative’ and ‘playful’ presentation style at Hong Kong’s Palace Museum something to take back to London


The decision by Britain’s National Gallery to bring 52 of its masterpieces to Hong Kong as part of a major Asia tour is expensive, but a good investment that has inspired the London landmark to try “innovative” and “playful” presentations, its director has said.

Gabriele Finaldi added it was rare for the almost 200-year-old gallery to organise large-scale overseas exhibitions such as the present one at the Hong Kong Palace Museum.
