Hong Kong's particular and seductive Metabolist city planning is an ode to consumption as a great totalizer of culture, and to contemporary art as merely a niche commodity form among many others.

With an annual operating budget of $7.5 million, the CJM got into major debt during the pandemic, taking out a $28 million loan. In November 2024, the organization announced that the museum would be closing and laying off 80% of its staff, and taking a year-long hiatus to regroup.

Situated in the southern tip of Mumbai, the neighbourhoods of Colaba and Fort are home to dock yards, grand colonial architecture and most of the city's museums and contemporary art galleries.
