It is only the collector and not the amateur that will decide if an artist will or will not enter history: there are no unknown geniuses, and one&#8217;s talent will always emerge and be recognised. The collector can be public or private, religious or not, a sponsor or an authority but no matter what, he is always at the centre of the arts. Since 1766, Christie&#8217;s has always created or encouraged this, and many of the most exquisite pieces are owned in private collections.<\/p>\n<p>Christie&#8217;s is proud to present this collection of paintings. Our choices were made without any compromise: only great masters and great masterpieces. Techniques are as varied as gouache and ink on silk, oil on canvas or lacquers, in any place, any subject and from impeccable provenance.<\/p>\n<p>Conquest, dream, oblivion: the tryptic from a common destiny.<\/p>\n<p>The artist&#8217;s search is for the absolute, an absolute set in time, but a universal absolute by their artistic stories written &#8211; then &#8211; in the West and especially Paris.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Christie&#8217;s Asian 20th\/21st Century Art, Hong Kong, 29 November 2015 In art, the artist is the determining factor; in art history, it is the collector.
