Art Central is joining forces with Asia Society Hong Kong Center to host a panel titled The Healing Power of Art. Speakers include Grace Cheng, director of the charitable institution Art in Hospital; William Chow, associate fellow of the Hong Kong Professional Counselling Association; and Laurence Wood, professor of cultural and creative arts at the Education University of Hong Kong.

Meanwhile, one of ABHK's offsite projects, Swiss artist Pipilotti Rist's Hand Me Your Trust, is playing on one of the world's largest media facades, the M+ screen. Through June 17, the meditative, introspective video art piece will explore the power of human touch. "My work looks at hands not only as working and creating, but also ornamentally: our hands can be beautiful extensions of our emotions, to communicate with other living beings without words," says the artist in a statement.
