Taschen saleTaschen 11:00
Premium art book publisher Taschen is holding its biannual sale soon, so if you’ve ever wanted one of their beautiful coffee table books, now’s the time to act! From February 5 to 9, Taschen will be offering discounts of up to 75 percent off, both online and in their flagship stores worldwide – and for Hong Kong, this means their location in Tai Kwun.
Browse through books exploring a wide range of topics, from art, fashion, photography, and design, to architecture, travel, and even more obscure topics like witchcraft and esoteric teachings. Our favourites from Taschen include a look at living spaces and architecture in Living in Asia; an exploration of holy places of ritual and worship around the world in Sacred Sites; the bite-sized travel itineraries in 36 Hours World; and old, hand-coloured photographs of Japan on the edge of modernisation in Japan 1900.
You can even find special treasures like a giant publication on Tibet’s most precious surviving murals, which has even been signed by His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama himself! Some of these tomes are going to be significantly more expensive than others, but regardless, the Taschen sale is a great way to get yourself acquainted with artists, art movements, and cultural phenomena, all while making your living spaces look amazing with their striking books.
