Organized by

Fu Qiumeng Fine Art  is a New York-based art space. By offering a unique perspective on the relationship between artistic creation and the collecting of art, it serves as an interdisciplinary research and development platform at the interface of art, business, and society.

In the realm of global contemporary art, Fu Qiumeng Fine Art aims to reposition Asia contemporary art. It primarily focuses on the breaking down of the bifurcation between traditional aesthetics and contemporary art and on the reconfiguration of the cultural division between East and West. We believe that this will help us retrace the past, envision the future, and, most importantly, redefine the present.
