For the fourth edition of the premier contemporary Asian art fair, with weight only being added to the significance of the growing event in the wake of the Art Basel founders’ recent purchase of the fair, Blum & Poe will make their presence known at Art HK ’11 with an impressive lineup of artists. Arguably, leading the charge for the Los Angeles contemporary art powerhouse will be a selection of work from Yoshitomo Nara, who we last saw during his retrospective, Nobody’s Fool (covered), at New York’s Asia Society last fall. The Japanese artist will be exhibiting with the talented Chinese artist Zhang Huan, who currently has a solo, 49 Days (covered), now on show in LA. Additionally, work from Nigel Cooke, Sam Durant, Mark Grotjahn, Julian Hoeber, Matt Johnson, Friedrich Kunath, Florian Maier-Aichen, Dave Muller, Dirk Skreber, Henry Taylor, and Lee Ufan will be on display.
