 Ronald Ventura at Perrotin...

Here's the next part in my International Art to See series: Asia! From contemporary art by local artists, to huge modern blockbuster shows and ancient scroll paintings, religious sculptures and functional ceramics. Asia certainly has tons of variety, eastern charm, philosophy and oriental magic. Also see the others in the series – North America, South America, Europe part I, Europe part II, Africa & the Middle East. Here's a few of my favourite Asian picks to see:-
