Between history, traditions and innovations, emerging and confirmed Asian galleries and artists continue to make their own mark in the worldwilde art market, through exhibitions and fairs. According to the latest Artprice World Market report, China and the USA are tied on the market: "In the soft-power that opposes the Republic of China to the USA, the balance has never been so perfect, never have the two balance sheets been so close both in terms of volume of transactions and turnover. ” Each year, since the rise of the Chinese Art Market, one of the two superpowers necessarily took over the other. But in the first half of 2017, the difference is so little that it is impossible to decide between them. Today, China accounts for 29% of the world market. A question then arises: how will this year present the Paris fairs that show artists, galleries and Asian collectors? FIAC, ASIA NOW, YIA Art Fair, museums, galleries, the range of possibilities is very wide. This important period in the art market is an opportunity to take the temperature of the market, meet galleries and their new selections, and follow future sales and artists that will be best sold this year. For its new special issue, HASHT-ART reveals this month selections of Asian galleries presented at Parisian fairs, new Asian artists, and Parisian galleries specialized in Asian arts, searching innovation, blending Asian antiques rich of history with contemporary works realized by confirmed or emerging artists.

ASIA NOW insists on the value of artists coming from a group of more than 10 countries, and presents the new perspectives and stakes of the contemporary Asian art market: the artists' value, and their potential for development. ASIA NOW reaffirms its determination to decipher this Asian art scene, to understand its evolution, its transformations, its stakes and above all its true nature. This fair is an ideal platform for dialogue and exchanges devoted to contemporary Asian creation. This year, the Korean artistic scene is being further developed, with a special program coordinated by the Korean curator Joanne Kim in collaboration with the curatorial team of the Busan Biennale. Among the regulars of fair, Magda Danysz (French gallery based in Paris, Shanghai and London), renewed the experience with a selection of artists, focused on the Asian garden. This garden, anchored in Buddhist philosophy, conceals details that the visitor does not see at first glance, but then leads to various interpretations, and inner meditation. The selected artists are Liu Bolin (opposite), Zhang Dali, The Parisian gallery Maria Lund also brings an original artistic touch to the fair. For this 3rd edition, the gallery presents three Korean artists whose works have in common a great sensuality and a form of animality. The artist Min Jung-Yeon (opposite) explores the fluctuating space of memory through memories of places and specific situations, imaginary and incursions of reality. Another artist Yoo Hye-Sook, guided by intuition and instinct, leaves forms and questions emerging from matter. Marked by humor, Shoi's works are based on memory, emotion, the reactivation of memories, and obey a subjective logic, an expression of personal mythology. #HASHT-ART | 12 Liu Bolin, When you see me I see you, 2017 Installation de circuits électroniques, fils de cuivre, caméras, CCTV, écrans, dimensions variables Courtesy : Magda Danysz Min Jung-Yeon, Lumiere de 17h, 2017 40 x 30 cm Acrylique sur toile Courtesy : Maria Lund Richard Koh Fine Art (based in Kuala Lumpur and Singapore) comes to Paris with a collective exhibition of Malaysian artists, Anne Samat, Heffendi Anuar, Hasanal Isyraf Idris and Yeoh Choo Kuan (opposite).
