Course On Chinese Contemporary Art One Of Four Courses Offered On Asian Art From Russia, India And China#
The day course on Chinese contemporary art at the Sotheby's Institute will look at the development of Chinese contemporary art since the 1960s
Art Radar Asia points out today that The Sotheby's Institute of Art in London will be offering four courses this autumn for anyone interested in modern and contemporary art in Asia, with day courses covering everything from the changing dynamics in the global art market (driven by the BRIC countries) to contemporary Russian art. Catering to those interested in Chinese contemporary art, the day course on November 11 (10:00 AM-5:00 PM) looks at the evolution of Chinese art and the country's art market since 1960.
As China’s art market has rapidly evolved over the past few decades, the course explores Chinese art, the evolution of artists’ careers and the unprecedented performance of recent Contemporary Chinese art at auction. The lectures will also highlight the distinction between art produced for Chinese taste and overseas collectors.
The sessions will be complemented by visits to galleries during the annual Asian Art in London events.
The fee for the individual course on Chinese contemporary art on November 11 is £195 (US$309), or £175 if booked by October 11. Online booking is available for this event through the Sotheby's Institute website.
