Arts of Pacific Asia Show in New York
21 – 25 March 2012
The Arts of Pacific Asia Show features exquisite items from over 65 leading international galleries specialising in Asian art. Both rare and ancient artefacts and contemporary art are on sale at Manhattan’s Gramercy Park Armory.
The collection encompasses many styles and mediums, including bronze sculpture from Tibet, where the art of metal-casting is a centuries-old tradition. Also featured at the Arts of Pacific Asia Show in New York are a series of Zen paintings from Japan. Although the religion itself did not encourage artistic endeavour, painting in the brush and ink calligraphic style became a way for the monks to illustrate enlightenment.
China is represented at the Arts of Pacific Asia Show with collections of embroidered robes, porcelain and jade dating from the rule of Emperor Ch’ien Lung of the Ch’ing dynasty. Technical advances at this time allowed for elaborate carving across a broad range of motifs. The collection features works from over 2000 years of Asian heritage and is a beautiful selection of hand-crafted pieces.
