I am...: Leona Craig Art is a different kind of contemporary Chinese art gallery. First of all, we cover artists from the whole contemporary period, including the second generation of modern Chinese artists, many of whom are still alive and working. Thus, our art, also, in a sense, presents a history of most of China's modern post-imperial era, as seen from the artist's point of view. Second, we do not just choose art from artists who are part of the latest fad in contemporary Chinese art, but we look closely and carefully at art from artists, old and new, known and unknown, to find fine art with different-from-the-norm, but meaningful, social commentary. Instead of the same sullen or red faced people, in new situations, we offer a variety of art, covering a range of range of topics, in imaginative ways.
The curator of the collection is Craig Mattoli, who has been collecting art since he was six years old, has been investing in inefficient markets for several decades, through his company, Red Hill Capital. In the 1980's, he was a Wall Street arbitrageur, and, in the 1990's, he created one of the first art inns in Bucks County Pennsylvania. He and his team have been working, in China, with various artists for almost a decade, getting to know the market for modern Chinese art from the inside. Leona Craig Art has taken up residence in Dongshan Kou, an old part of Guangzhou (Canton), whose buildings date back to the early 1900's, and which, with Leona Craig Art's help, is on its way to becoming the Soho of Guangzhou, as it reminds Mattoli of Soho, in New York, in the 1970's.

The Value of an Art Dealer

With all of the news about art auctions, one might forget that the major part of the art business is art dealers. You might, at first scoff and say that the major part of the art business is artists, but you would, again, be wrong. Indeed, even the major art auction houses have recognized this fact and have acquired, through their own envy, art galleries and have also increased their private sale (acting as broker or dealer) staffs. In China, many artists try…
