Phillips Asia welcomes the first ever cross-category online auction presenting contemporary art, watches and jewelry.

Phillips is pleased to announce REFRESH:RELOAD, the first ever cross-category online-only auction assembled by its Asia team featuring a mix of collecting categories - spanning contemporary art, watches and jewellery.

REFRESH:RELOAD reflects the fast-changing landscape of our age. We live in unprecedented times, and disruption provides an opportunity to reimagine what is normal – a chance to opt for a ‘soft refresh’ or ‘hard reload’.

“Our global Spring calendar this year is made up entirely of online-only sales and we have seen strong participation already,” said Delissa Handoko, Head of Online Sales, Hong Kong, Phillips. “At Phillips we have also seen a great deal of cross-category collecting, and as collectors’ tastes continue to evolve globally, we are excited to present this online-only sale. Curated in two complementary parts: ‘REFRESH’ embodies a more romantic and lighthearted aesthetic, bringing together colourful and fun contemporary artworks alongside elegant jewellery and timepieces. The second half of the sale, ‘RELOAD’ will see cutting-edge jewellery and watches offered alongside fresh, trend- setting art, editions and collectibles.”
