Kitty Go, Private Collector (Hong Kong)
Kitty has been involved in the art market in varying capacities for nearly thirty years, having started as an Asia-based freelance journalist on arts and lifestyle (1995 – 2020). She contributed to publications such as The Financial Times (FT), The Wall Street Journal (WSJ), China Daily and South China Morning Post (SCMP) from Hong Kong, Manila, Tokyo and Taipei. Kitty also wrote for regional newspapers and magazines including those based in the Philippines, Singapore and Malaysia.
From her media experience and observations of trends in the market, she founded EKCART ASIA, a futurist collective where she designs and manages art collections for a pool of collectors.
As a collector, Kitty has a particular passion for Chinese, Persian and South East Asian Classical and Contemporary art, a market that she has vast knowledge in as well as a firm belief in its appreciation potential. In her collecting ethos, Kitty has married the importance of market data with a genuine love of the pieces she collects, recognising that art can have more than one value to its owner, both emotional and financial.
