ART PARIS ART FAIR 2014 – China Guest of Honour
China is the guest of honour at Art Paris Art Fair, coinciding with celebrations for the 50th anniversary of relations between France and the People’s Republic of China.

The 2014 edition has set out to highlight the dynamism of the Modern and Contemporary art scene of China, showcasing some 90 artists of different generations represented by galleries from Beijing, Shanghai and Hong-Kong as well as some 20 or so Western galleries.

“Iron fist”, a monumental sculpture by Liu Bolin produced by Galerie Paris-Beijing will stand at the entrance of the Grand Palais. Also on show is “Buddha Jumps over the Wall” by Zhang Ding, an installation shown by Hélène Bailly Gallery in association with ShanghArt gallery. Meanwhile, a previously unseen selection of leading Chinese artists belonging to a private French collection will be unveiled at the fair.

“Art in China today, what will the future hold?” is the theme of a round table discussion (in English) on Thursday 27th March from 4.00pm to 5.30pm at the auditorium of the Grand Palais. It brings together experts on the Chinese art scene including art critic Karen Smith and collector DR.Uli Sigg.
