Launched in 2014, Altermodernists aims to promote art and artists in Hong Kong. Working outside of the traditional art institution/ system, the platform is not just a website to document creative process but also a space to encourage connections, collaborations and experimentations. Digital content has been one of the key things developed by the Altermodernists, there are over 40 video interviews and 100 written interviews. Through providing multimedia contents on local artists and art-spaces on its digital platform, and organising cultural events in various districts, Altermodernists aims to increase the public's understanding of art, and introduces ways to
appreciate art. It is Altermodernists’mission to encourage the public to know more about art and artists in Hong Kong, to participate in artistic exchange; and to increase the support to local art community.
