    USD 3.5 Million Tang Dynasty Silver Bowl and Other Highlights from September Asia Week New York!

    Hope everyone is enjoying the autumn season! I've been traveling a lot the past few weeks so have been a little late in posting my trip to the September 2019 edition of Asia Week New York. If you follow me on Instagram, you would have seen some of the highlight objects I was examining during my auction house visits. I wasn't even CLOSE to posting everything I saw, so this blog features more examples of the Asian Art items I really liked. As many of you know, Asia Week New Yor

    Summer News and Chinese Art Highlights from the Spring of 2019!

    I can't believe we're already halfway through summer! The past couple of months have been fairly busy for me with the Toronto Asian Art sales and a trip to Vancouver at the end of June, numerous appraisals and valuations in July, AND the completion of my latest Chinese Art auction market trends report for Orientations magazine. This article will be published in their September/October issue and will be available in most museum bookstores by the end of August. As usual, I will

    Three Months of Travel! Chinese Art Highlights from New York, Hong Kong and London!

    I'm back in Toronto! It's been an incredible three months. Since mid-September I have been to New York, Hong Kong, Vancouver, New York (again), and London! When I left my Toronto auction house job three years ago, I didn't think I would be traveling this much, but it has been quite exhilarating! It's always a pleasure to visit the large international Asian Art sales room, and the quality of the objects I am able to examine these days is completely stunning! During my travels

    Masterpieces from the Asia Society Collection in New York City

    October is almost over! It's been a busy month of traveling, especially after I survived a recent eight day visit to Vancouver - the majority of the time was spent on client meetings, but I did manage to go on a couple of relaxing hikes and eat plenty of fresh sushi. Museum-wise, I caught the last day of 'Traces of Words: Art and Calligraphy from Asia' at the Museum of Anthropology at the University of British Columbia. I also saw a fantastic exhibition at the Poly Culture Ar

    Strong Start to the Fall Asian Art Auction Season - Featuring Bronzes, Porcelain and Monkeys

    I'm back from another whirlwind visit to New York City! This time it was for the Fall Asia Week festivities from September 8th until September 16th. I ended up staying for five days in the midtown area. The September auctions at the big three international auction houses - Bonhams, Christie's and Sotheby's - are typically a little bit more low key than the March editions, but there was still so many places to visit with over 2000 Asian Art objects to preview. After seeing and

    Hot Off the Press! Spring 2017 Chinese Art Highlights!

    Autumn is coming! And that means the start of another Asian Art auction season! I will be in New York for the Asia Week auction previews from September 7th to the 11th. Please say hi if you see me at one of the various exhibitions throughout the city. In the meantime my next Orientations Magazine market trends report will be featured in their September/October issue (which should be available through museum bookstores next week). This report covers Chinese Art highlights from

    Thank you to everyone following @anthonywuart on Instagram over the past couple of months!

For those who are new to social media, Instagram is fairly simple to use. You basically sign up, create a profile, upload a couple of photos and post them! There are many Instagram tutorials online such as this one fro

    Welcome!

    Thank you for visiting my new website and reading my first blog! Many people may have met me over the past decade while I was the head Asian Art specialist at two of Toronto’s largest regional auctions houses. It was a lot of fun putting Asian Art sales together and learning about the auction trade. I met many interesting people – many who have now become good friends and mentors. Seeing the top Asian works of art in Canada was a real honour, as well as seeing spectacular Can
