Entirely nonexistent museum. Website hasn't been updated in years. Listing for deletion in tandem with Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Lee Shi-min (2nd nomination), an article apparently created by the same group of sockpuppets for promotional purposes. Can find no evidence that their "major collaborating organisation" exists, nor their award-winning artists, nor their supposed "prominent exhibits". A hoax.

- Delete. It should be also noted that based on that own museum's own Web site, the last exhibition appeared to have been in 2010 - at a gallery not owned by the alleged museum. This suggests that this "museum" was entirely a ruse. (Also, there is no evidence I can find of its publication's existence.) --Nlu (talk) 12:50, 2 September 2014 (UTC)

- Delete. I've visited Hong Kong numerous times and have read multiple editions of Lonely Planet and Rough Guide books about the city, but have never heard about this "museum" before. Tellingly, the museum's own website looks amateurish and does not even provide a physical address or phone number. Almost certainly a hoax. -Zanhe (talk) 03:50, 3 September 2014 (UTC)
