There’s no end to the things you can do during the Christmas and New Year holidays in Hong Kong, but this weekend you absolutely need to check out a large photography exhibition at M+ and a new Japanese bakery in Causeway Bay.

1. Yasumasa Morimura and Cindy Sherman: Masquerades

At the M+ museum in West Kowloon, two of the most famous ‘selfie’ takers in contemporary art are paired in the intimate space of the Cissy Pui-Lai Pao and Shinichiro Watari Galleries.

There are nearly 200 photographic self-portraits of Morimura, a Japanese man, and Sherman, a white American woman, all facing each other.

Both master masquerades, they showcase society’s deep-rooted gendered social norms while revealing how freely hackable they are: if you know these codes, you can pretend to be anything you want.

Some of their most famous early works can be found here: Morimura as Marilyn Monroe and Audrey Hepburn, and Sherman’s mockumentary stills. It is the first time that the two artists’ works are shown side by side in an institution, and it is a fascinating way of looking at how identity is created.

“Yasumasa Morimura and Cindy Sherman: Masquerades”, Cissy Pui-Lai Pao and Shinichiro Watari Galleries, L2, M+, West Kowloon Cultural District, Tue-Thu and weekends, 10am-6pm, Fri, 10am-10pm :00. 14 December – 5 May.
