Ullens collection to refocus around ground-breaking artists from China, India, Japan and Korea


The second and final cluster of works from the Ullens Collection of contemporary Chinese art went under the hammer at Sotheby's recently lifting the tally realised from sales to $54.8 million – a record for a single-owner sale of Chinese contemporary art. Ullens also confrimed his continuing interest in Chinese art saying he looked forward to “building and enhancing his collection by “working with ground-breaking artists from China, India, Japan and Korea.” Along with the appointment of Philip Tinari as the new director of the Ullens Centre for Contemporary Art in Beijing, the announcement will set to rest rumours that the Ullens are getting out of China.
