asian collectors and dealers art basel 2658723

Asian collectors and dealers are increasingly choosing to skip Art Basel's flagship Swiss edition in favor of Art Basel Paris, citing the French capital's more appealing experience. Amid a market contraction, figures like Monique Leong are skipping Basel for the second year, while others such as Kankuro Ueshima, Rosy Wu, and Kazunari Shirai still attend. Notable appearances include K-pop star RM of BTS, who made his first public appearance after military service as Samsung Art TV's global ambassador. The fair saw Asian languages spoken widely, and young first-time collectors brought private guides to maximize their visit.

Chinese art collector to open non-profit in London devoted to contemporary Asian art

Chinese art collector and philanthropist Yan Du will open Yan Du Projects (YDP), a non-profit space dedicated to contemporary Asian and Asian diasporic art, in a Grade I-listed townhouse on Bedford Square, London, this October. The venue will host exhibitions, site-specific commissions, public events, and artist residencies, with an opening show by Chinese painter Duan Jianyu. Designed by Hong Kong-based Beau Architects, the space features a modular "suitcase project" interior that respects the building's listed status and reflects diasporic themes. YDP is distinct from Yan's earlier Asymmetry Art Foundation (founded 2019) and her private collection, aiming to promote under-represented Asian artists through flexible, artist-curated programming.
