AAA’s annual auction is a major source of support for its operations, programmes and endowment. In 2011, the auction raised funds towards AAA’s new website and Collection Online, enabling global access to AAA’s extensive digital collection. This year, AAA continues to raise funds toward its endowment goal of US $6.5 million which provides ongoing support for its research and programmes, as well as a long term strategy for its growing extensive collection of physical and digital material documenting the recent history of contemporary art in Asia. The endowment campaign was launched in 2007 and to date the Archive has raised US $4.3 million towards its goal.

The dinner is sold out but all works will be on view at Sotheby’s Hong Kong from 20-23 November or online. Absentee or phone bids are welcome.
