Border(line) /Sep 13 – Oct 25, 2025 /Opening Reception: Saturday, Sep 13, 3pm – 7pm / David Zwirner5-6/F, H Queen’s 80 Queen’s Road CentralCentral, Hong KongTuesday – Saturday, 11am – 7pm+852 21195900 davidzwirner.com David Zwirner is pleased to present a group exhibition at the gallery’s Hong Kong location. Border(line) centers on the inescapable thresholds—literal and abstract—that demarcate nations, spaces, and contemporary life, and considers borders as conceptual and psychological states of being.  Bringing together a diverse group of artists from the gallery’s program alongside voices from across Asia, this presentation offers an opportunity for global connection and exchange around the existence and possibilities of such partitions. The exhibition will feature works by Josef Albers, Francis Alÿs, Chen Wei, Raoul De Keyser, Felix Gonzalez-Torres, Hu Xiaoyuan, James Prapaithong, Prae Pupityastaporn, Wong Ping and Xie Nanxing. Together, these artists present a multifaceted, cross-generational, and transcultural vision of twenty-first-century life, one that is shaped and reshaped by constantly changing borders, both real and imagined.
