updates: Hong Kong artists are leaving the city due to rising repression and a lack of safety. The government's efforts to silence artists have led to an exodus of talent, with many artists feeling unsafe and choosing to work elsewhere. The introduction of a national security law in 2020 and the proposed implementation of a new national security law, known as Article 23, have further restricted artistic expression. Artistic venues have faced pressure and made convoluted decisions due to national security concerns. The exhibition 'The Forbidden Art' in Brussels showcases images related to Hong Kong and aims to defend artistic freedom as a human right. The exhibition is organized by Hong Kong-born artist Loretta Lau and Danish sculptor Jens Galschiøt. The city of Hong Kong is trying to maintain its status as a global arts hub, but faces increasing calls for international art institutions to boycott the Beijing-controlled territory. The future of Hong Kong's creative industries is being debated, with commercial institutions at the center of the discussion. The government's funding agreements for arts and cultural events now routinely include a clause about national security. Defenders of Hong Kong's art scene argue that even in mainland China's more restrictive environment, art still sells. However, the restriction of artistic expression undermines the dynamism and self-critical capacity of society.
