At ART100, our approach is anchored in the belief that art is a powerful bridge between the past and present, offering insights into the human condition that transcends time and geography. We are committed to crafting collections that not only celebrate artistic excellence but also engage deeply with the themes that resonate in today’s world. With this vision, we proudly present the International Fine & Decorative Arts II Auction—a curated selection of 400 works spanning Chinese, American, and European art, from historical treasures to contemporary innovations.
This auction invites you on a journey through the evolution of artistic expression, showcasing how art has both shaped and been shaped by the societies in which it was created. From the refined beauty of Ming dynasty ceramics to the bold experimentation of modern and contemporary art, each piece in our collection speaks to universal themes of beauty, identity, and change. We encourage you to explore how these works, while rooted in their specific time periods, continue to reflect and influence the complexities of our world today.
Diversity is at the heart of our curatorial approach. We believe that the strength of a collection lies in its ability to bring together a wide range of voices, styles, and perspectives. This auction offers a harmonious blend of established masters and emerging talents, traditional craftsmanship and avant-garde techniques. Whether you’re drawn to the serene landscapes of 19th-century romanticism or the daring innovations of contemporary artists, our collection caters to both seasoned collectors and those new to the art world.
For the experienced collector, this auction presents an opportunity to acquire works of significant historical and cultural value—pieces that have shaped art history and continue to inspire. For newcomers, it offers an accessible entry point, with a variety of works that are both affordable and deeply meaningful. Each piece, regardless of its price, has been selected for its artistic merit and its ability to engage on multiple levels—emotionally, intellectually, and aesthetically.
What unites this diverse collection is a shared commitment to storytelling and craftsmanship. Every work carries a narrative that reflects the artist’s vision, the cultural context of its creation, and broader human experiences. These are stories of beauty, conflict, tradition, and innovation—testaments to the enduring power of art to connect us across time and culture.
