Chinese Want to Know About the Growing Interest in African Art

June 4, 2015 by Marion Maneker

CHinese TV on African Art

China’s CCTV is curious about the demand for African art and how it compares with interest in Contemporary Chinese painting:

“Certainly the market is rising, it is not or it has not yet reached the type of levels and figure that we see in China’s contemporary art, in regards to interest and demand and the amount of people we have coming to us, in some ways it certainly equals the demand for Chinese Art,” said Giles Peppiatt, director of Modern and Contemporary, Bonhams.
