Art

Sotheby’s Hong Kong is delighted to present a robust schedule of paintings and calligraphy this April. Ranging from fine classical Chinese paintings to modern and contemporary South Asian Art, the season’s offerings include significant works from the 14th through the 20th Century.

BRUSHWORK II: ALL THE WORLD’S A STAGE
Auction: 2 April
Exhibition: 31 March – 2 April

Opening this spring’s Evening Sale, BRUSHWORK II – ALL THE WORLD’S A STAGE celebrates the newly globalized and interconnected post-war arena in which artists painted for the world – not just for local audiences. In their cross-cultural search for a common international language on the global ‘stage’ of abstraction, artists turned to performances, process, and dynamic synthesis of East and West.

MODERN & CONTEMPORARY SOUTHEAST ASIAN ART
Auction: 2-3 April 2017
Exhibition: 31 March – 2 April

Sotheby’s Hong Kong’s Modern and Contemporary Southeast Asian Art Spring Sales 2017 will take place on 2–3 April at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre.

The evening sale (separate release available) highlights paintings by internationally-renowned artists such as Andy Warhol, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Damien Hirst and Adrian Ghenie, together with works by other in-demand Asian artists including Lin Fengmian, Zao Wou-ki, Zhang Xiaogang, Liu Ye, Kusama Yayoi, Le Pho and Affandi, while the day sale is highlighted by exceptional and rare pieces from Southeast Asian leading artists and a selection of works from new-to-auction and emerging artists.

CLASSICAL CHINESE PAINTINGS
Auction: 3 April 2017
Exhibition: 31 March – 2 April

Led by classical Chinese paintings and calligraphy from celebrated private collections including the Mo Boji Family Collection and Si Wei Tang, the Classical Chinese Paintings spring sale will take place on 3 April at Hall 5, Hong Kong Convention Centre.

YAMAGUCHI TAKEO -  COMPRISING MONOCHROME
Auction: 3 April 2017
Exhibition: 31 March – 2 April

‘Yamaguchi Takeo – Composing Monochrome’ pays respect to one of the most iconic and pioneering artists of the twentieth century. An important mentor of Lee Ufan who provided both financial and artistic support to Kim Whanki as well as countless Japanese students in the post-war period, Yamaguchi Takeo single-handedly composed a one-man monochrome symphony that heralded the 1970s wave of monochrome artists in Asia. His distinctive paintings were shown at the São Paolo and Venice Biennales, the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, and the Museum of Modern Art, New York as early as the 1950s and 1960s. The present sale offers works spanning six decades, tracing the elegant evolution of a trailblazing legacy.

MODERN ASIAN ART
Auction: 2-3 April 2017
Exhibition: 31 March – 2 April

This spring, Sotheby’s Modern Asian Art will present a series of significant Modern works by Asian artists from the 19th through 21th centuries including Long Chin-San, Léonard Foujita, Lin Fengmian, Sanyu, Wu Dayu, Zao Wou-ki, Chu Teh-chun, Wu Guanzhong, Dongfang Group artists, Wang Huaiqing and Xu Jiang, among others. Spanning oil paintings, works on paper, photographs and mixed media, 123 lots will be offered across three auctions, totalling approximately HK$200million/ US$26million.

FINE CHINESE PAINTINGS

Further highlights include masterpieces by Zhang Daqian, many of which were gifts to his close friends, such as the splashed ink and colour landscape on gold paper for Tai Jingnong, a splashed ink lotus painting for Wu Hufan to celebrate his 70th birthday, and red lotuses for his friend Mao Yingchu.

CONTEMPORARY INK ART
Auction: 4 April 2017
Exhibition: 31 March – 3 April

Presenting more than 70 lots, Contemporary Ink Art is led by an especially rare group of paintings by Liu Dan that features a range of signature motifs by the contemporary literatus. Works on offer focus on significant moments and artistic milestones for pioneers of contemporary ink art working around the world, from the experimental calligraphy works by Bokujinkai leaders in 1950s post-war Japan, to important landscapes by such early masters as Lui Shoukwan and Liu Guosong, to a subsequent generation of artists including Li Jin, Xu Lei, Qiu Deshu and Peng Jian, who seek to address social issues in their pivotal works.
