Chinese Contemporary Art Gallery - Michael Goedhuis

Chinese Contemporary Art Gallery

In the recent years, Chinese contemporary art has emerged in the art-world spotlight. I first came across when I was invited to Michael Goedhuis Chinese Contemporary Art event at The Southey's New York. It was quite an event, a night with art and fashion.

China has produced art for thousands of years, but contemporary art is something very recent. It has gained interests in the art world quickly, and increase number of collectors thus with a corresponding rise in value.

Michael Goedhuis, a distinguished looking gentleman with Dutch heritage who attended Eton college in England and other European universities, he has such an impressive and respectable international background, a very upbeat and joyous personality. He has such fine eyes for Chinese contemporary art, I have began to learn more each time I go to his gallery located at an Upper East Side townhouse.
I am very lucky to become his friend; and he is always very supportive and encouraging and a source of inspiration indeed.
