NEW YORK, NY.- When Asia Week New York opened on Thursday, March 11, it was entering unchartered territory. Before the pandemic, galleries and auction houses were abuzz with international collectors, curators and Asian art enthusiasts seeking out treasures. While 13 New York galleries are open by appointment, all 29 exhibitions went digital on a newly revamped platform, attracting a number of buyers on opening weekend.
We are very pleased with the enthusiastic response from visitors to the website,
many of whom made significant purchases and have decided to extend the virtual viewing rooms through March 27th, says Asia Week New York chairperson Katherine Martin.
