Souren Melikian: Diverse cultures (and sales) at Asian art event

From the IHT:

If proof were needed that the art market and the broader economy do not function under the same rules, it was spectacularly provided during New York Asia Week, which began on March 28 and lingered on into April.

China and India may vie with one another as the economic giants of the future, but in art sales there is no suggestion of parity.

In contrast to the discreet presence of Indian art, Chinese art was to be seen everywhere in Manhattan.
