Asia Week: Galleries & Auctions Push Forward

It has been a year of learning and perseverance for Asia Week. The twice-annual main event of the Asian antique world saw its dominant edition open in March and immediately slam shut in New York City on account of COVID-19. It was followed by a July event where the organization of both dealers and auctioneers mounted an online showroom with programming to make up for that lost opportunity. That brings us to September, where Asia Week normally launches its second event of the year, typically a quieter though spirited presentation of the Asian arts, bringing together scholars, dealers, auctioneers, curators and collectors for another round of selling exhibitions and talks. Asia Week: Galleries & Auctions Push Forward

Calendar Update

Asia Week New York 2020 is underway: From September 17 to October 4, a full schedule of exhibitions (accessible through an online viewing room), auctions and a panel discussion are filling the agenda.

8 Things to Do This Weekend How can you get your cultural fix when many arts institutions remain closed? Our writers offer suggestions for what to listen to, read and watch.

This year’s edition of Asia Week, the annual convergence of auctions, museum shows and private dealer exhibitions that provides a tour of the artistry of several ancient cultures, was mostly forging ahead despite the coronavirus. But that plan didn’t work out: Gallery shows were cut short, and auctions were postponed. Finally, after some retooling and collaborating with institutions such as Bonham’s to conduct online sales, the cultural-festival-cum-trade-fair has come up with a virtual version (on view through July 31 at asiaweekny.com; click on “Summer Redux”). 8 Things to Do This Weekend How can you get your cultural fix when many arts institutions remain closed?

Editors’ Picks: 7 Events for Your Virtual Art Calendar This Week, From an Online Tony Cokes Premiere to Asia Week New York’s Summer Redux

Asia Week New York had the extreme misfortune of opening March 12, with most of the galleries that were able to participate opting to wind down operations by the weekend, days ahead of the planned March 19 end date. To make up for the interrupted event, Asia Week galleries are banding together for “SUMMER REDUX: Asia Week New York 2020,” a virtual exhibition running through July 31 that coincides with online Asian art auctions at Bonhams, Christie’s, Doyle, Heritage Auctions, iGavel, and Sotheby’s. Programming includes a talk from the curators of three major Asian art shows that were also forced to shutter this spring: “Chinese Painting and Calligraphy Up Close” at New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art, “The Cloth That Changed the World: India’s Painted and Printed Cottons” at Toronto’s Royal Ontario Museum, and “Lost Luxuries: Ancient Chinese Gold” at Vermont’s Middlebury College Museum.

Citing coronavirus, New York auction houses reschedule Asia Week sales from March to June

With the international art world shuffling to navigate the Covid-19 outbreak, New York’s Asia Week—the annual gathering of Asian art gallery exhibitions, talks, auctions, and special events, taking place 12-19 March—has made some adjustments as well. Namely, the six participating auction houses have decided to postpone the majority of their Asia Week auctions until the week of 22 June, and a cocktail reception at The Met originally slated for 16 March has been cancelled. While gallery events across the city will continue throughout the week as planned, many fear the knock-on effect of the delays, the virus’s increased spread throughout the US, and restrictions on both travel and large gatherings may hurt attendance. https://www.theartnewspaper.com/news/citing-coronavirus-new-york-auction-houses-reschedule-asia-week-sales-from-march-to-june

Not only did we catch the highlights of the festival but met with wonderful people - collectors, gallery owners and scholars and saw how art encompasses everything they do. http://www.thehindu.com/features/friday-review/art/new-yorks-brush-with-asian-art/article7035634.ece

ASIA WEEK NEW YORK – A cultural voyage both ancient and modern, through art in many mediums

Asia Week New York is an otherworldly journey into the past.

Mirviss Ltd. where the shapes of the vessels on view felt primitive and modern in equal measure. http://designerpreviews.com/asia-week-new-york-take-a-cultural-voyage-both-ancient-and-modern-though-art-in-many-mediums/

Doors That Open to the Art of a Continent: Asia Week Events Set for Galleries and Museums

Last week’s contemporary art fairs gathered more or less like-minded galleries in concentrated spaces in several New York locations, but the annual Asia Week New York takes a different approach.

Asia Week for Beginners: New York Experts on the Chinese, Korean, Japanese, and Indian Art Markets

This week, many of New York's auction houses, art gallerys, and cultural institutions have teamed up to present the annual spring Asia Week, with focused programming and exhibitions related to art throughout the continent. Reports on Asian art generally focus on the more extravagant works and prices (remember the $85-million fish vase?), which these days tend to be in the Chinese art category, but the high-end of traditional Chinese art is only a sliver of the commerce going on in New York's robust Asian art scene. http://www.artinfo.com/news/story/763204/asia-week-for-beginners-new-york-experts-on-the-chinese-korean-japanese-and-indian-art-

Influence and Inspiration: Korea’s Place in Asian Art History

Akin to a fine cup of tea, the fresh leaves of China were steeped in the hot water of Korean culture and the brew poured into the dainty cups of Japan. Geographically poised between China and Japan, Korea has played both a linking and influential role as a stronghold of Buddhist culture in East Asia that can be seen in the artworks of all three countries. These countries have a long history of devotion to Buddhism, and until the arrival of communism in the region, many artworks referenced Buddhist practices. http://www.theepochtimes.com/n2/arts-entertainment/influence-and-inspiration-korea-s-place-in-asian-art-history-207104.html

Indian Paintings Getting New Attention from Museums and Collectors

Look once and you'll look twice. It's almost impossible to resist the diminutive drama of Indian painting. This incredibly rich but broad category, which scholars now timeline from the 12th through 19th centuries, might be best known to the art world as Indian miniatures, color-soaked, gemlike paintings of courtly, religious and literary scenes, a genre that is generally associated with the period of the Mughal empire (1560–1858). http://www.artandantiquesmag.com/2012/03/indian-paintings-getting-new-attention-from-collectors/
