–New York may not be the first destination for Asian art in the world, but for those who seek the widest range of Asian art found in one city, New York is a must see, particularly during the annual Asia Week New York (AWNY) that takes place in March.
“We have an all-compassing grip on Asian art, because we have the whole gamut,” said new Executive Director for AWNY Margaret Tao, at the press reception on Dec. 9, 2015, which took place at J.J. Lally & Co. in New York.
On the night, the AWNY association announced that Asia Week 2016 will encompass 46 international galleries, among them nine new exhibitors from around the world, and five auction houses. The nine-day celebration of Asian art and culture will span the metropolitan region from March 10 to 19.
