“We are excited that nearly half of our 26 galleries are presenting such a wide selection of contemporary works of art,” says Dessa Goddard, chairman of Asia Week New York. “Their participation enhances the scope of our mission to appeal to a new base of collectors.”
Contemporary Japanese ceramics and contemporary ink paintings will be concurrently exhibited at Joan B Mirviss LTD when Beijing-based gallery INKstudio join forces to present their respective exhibitions: KondoĢ Takahiro: Making Waves and Bingyi: Land of Immortals. Although their respective media (clay and ink) and artistic forms (sculpture and painting) are vastly different, both artists are deeply engaged with the dynamic forces of nature, specifically, the qualities and behavior of water. When seen together, both artists are clearly engaged in a form of material and artistic transformation that sparks a dialogue about international contemporary art that draws upon and advances traditional East Asian artistic practices. 39 East 78th Street, 4th Floor, Suite 401
