In 2012 Uli Sigg, a Swiss businessman, Sinophile and, eventually, his country’s ambassador to China, agreed to donate 1510 pieces from his collection of Chinese art to the yet-to-be constructed M+ Museum for Visual Culture in Hong Kong.
It was an announcement with a heavy degree of synchronicity. Sigg, who started collecting in the 1990s, has amassed what is believed to be the biggest collection of contemporary Chinese art in the world, numbering 2600 pieces.

M+ will be the biggest public gallery in Hong Kong and one of the largest in Asia with an ambition of rivalling, in terms of the breadth and quality of its collection, London’s The Tate, New York’s MoMA and Paris’ Centre Pompidou. Included in Sigg’s donation are 26 works by Ai Weiwei, arguably the most famous contemporary artist in the world and certainly the most famous Chinese-born critic of the government in Beijing.
