Highlights on Pace’s booth at Art Basel Hong Kong include:
• Tail-cock party (1970), a vibrant, large-scale painting by Matta, one of the great surrealists of the 20th century who profoundly influenced the development of Abstract Expressionism

• A new painting by Li Hei Di, who joined Pace’s program in 2024 and will open their first solo exhibition with the gallery at its Hong Kong space in May

• Kiki Smith’s sculpture Consort (2016), which reflects the artist’s enduring interest in embodied experiences of nature
• A new installation by Song Dong, who often explores memory, impermanence, and transience in his work
• A new painting by Alejandro Piñeiro Bello depicting an undulating, otherworldly landscape inspired by the history, folklore, and spirit of the Caribbean
• A sculpture and multiple mixed media works by Alicja Kwade, whose exhibition at Tai Kwun in Hong Kong continues through April 6 and who will present a solo exhibition at Pace’s New York gallery in May
• A 2023 painting by Loie Hollowell, known for her works that evoke bodily landscapes

• A new painting from Mika Tajima’s celebrated Art d'Ameublement series, named for composer Erik Satie’s
Furniture Music (Musique d’ameublement) and featuring vivid, radiant color gradients
• Three ceramic and steel sculptures by Arlene Shechet, who uses seemingly disparate shapes, colors, and materials to imbue her works with psychological and emotional resonances
• A 2023 sculpture by Joel Shapiro, who has pushed the boundaries of sculptural form over the past six decades with a body of work distinguished by its dynamism, complexity, and formal elegance
• A mixed media painting by Hong Hao, who, over the past decade, has increasingly focused on the expressive potential of material itself, continuing his reflection on social constructions of value
• A 1979 painting by Yoo Youngkuk, a pioneer of geometric abstract painting celebrated for his distinctive visual lexicon characterized by bold color fields and expressive applications of paint
• Role-player (2016), a surrealistic canvas by Zhang Xiaogang
