#HongKong M+ museum's works are slammed by pro-#CCP politicians for "inciting hatred", the museum has confirmed that #AiWeiwei's photograph of him raising a middle finger at #Tiananmen Square will not be on view when the museum finally opens its doors to public. With pleasing #Beijing the city's priority over everything else now, it'd be a wonder if #HK can stay on as Asia's art hub.

#UliSigg, the #Swiss collector who donated over 1,500 pieces to the museum broke his silence on these "politicians'" attacks. Art reflects reality, it may make us feel uncomfortable, but it reflects the truth. Why is the HK and #Chinese government so anxious to censor the truth?

Huge middle finger to #CreditSuisse which sucks up to #CCP with no shame. Buyer beware.

On another note: M+ is a huge joke. A large amount of contemporary #Chinese artworks were donated because collector #UliSigg was confident that #HongKong will not censor art. How wrong he was.
