Pace is a leading contemporary art gallery representing many of the most significant international artists and estates of the 20th and 21st centuries. Founded by Arne Glimcher in Boston in 1960, Pace has been a constant, vital force in the art world and has introduced many renowned artists’ work to the public for the first time. Pace has also published nearly 350 exhibition catalogues and mounted more than 700 exhibitions, including scholarly exhibitions that have subsequently travelled to museums. Today Pace has seven locations worldwide: four in New York; two in London; and a gallery in Beijing, also two exhibition spaces located individual at Zuoz in Switzerland and Hong Kong. In May of 2014, Pace Hong Kong, which is directly administrated by Pace’s Asian Regional Partner Leng Lin, announced plans for its new space located in Central of Hong Kong in the Entertainment Building. Pace Hong Kong is open to the public, Tuesday through Saturday, 11 a.m. to 7 p.m.
Since 2008, The Pace Gallery has established itself in Beijing as a premiere branch of the organization, steadily advancing as the Asian market continues to develop. The gallery spared no pain or effort promoting a blend between contemporary Asian and Western artists. At the same time, the gallery also promoted the booming contemporary Asian art realm in its cultural role. Commencing in 2010 as a permanent yearly exhibition, Beijing Voices reflects on the metropolitan territory’s art phenomenon and issues from the previous year. Pace Beijing continues to be an extensive pioneer and influential player in Asia. This year, the Pace Gallery officially expanded into Hong Kong, harnessing Zhang Xiaogang’s latest artwork to serve as its inaugural exhibition, further proclaiming the intentions of the Pace Gallery in terms of its Asian strategy and vision.
