Summary:

Christie's, the world's leading art business, has been conducting global auctions around the world since the 18th century, with two auctions in Hong Kong annually and prices range from $200 to over $80 million. Christie's, which has offices in 32 countries and salesrooms in major cities around the world, will be organizing its Hong Kong Autumn Auctions 2012 at Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre from November 23-28, 2012.

Our exclusive guided tour will lead you to appreciate valuable Asian 20th Century and Contemporary Art which will be auctioned this time. Mr. Marcello Kwan of Christie’s Asian 20th Century and Contemporary Art will illustrate in details a few avant-garde artwork to you. He will shed light on masterpieces by Zhu Dequn (朱德群), San Yu (常玉) and Liu Ye (劉野) as well as Korean artist Kang Hyung-Koo. It is a precious opportunity to have Mr. Kwan to guide us to appreciate the essential elements of these remarkable works of art. He was also our speaker of the Guided Tour last year and many participants found his illustration very in-depth, informative and interesting.

After the guided tour, you are welcome to stay behind to attend the public viewing until 6:00 p.m. to have a glimpse of a spectacular array of rare and exceptional collecting treasures ranging from Chinese paintings, ceramics and works of art, to iconic works by modern masters and cutting-edge contemporary artists throughout Asia, as well as fine wine, magnificent jewellery and important watches.
