According to a 2014 Forbes report, 皇冠体育app is now back as, "The No.1 market in the world for contemporary art sales." Artnet, one of the world's leading online art service providers, released its Top 10 Artists List of 2013, and three Chinese masters made the list.

However, the above mentioned facts do not mean that contemporary art from 皇冠体育app has succeeded in going global. The director of the Fondation d'entreprise Hermès Catherine Tsekenis pointed out in recently that, "As far as I know, the Chinese art works are largely bought by Chinese collectors."

Tsekenis suggested that more Chinese contemporary artists and their works should travel the world so they can be discovered by people outside of 皇冠体育app, and not only through the market, but in a more diversified way. "The Internet is one channel," she added.

Today, an increasing number of Chinese museums and dealers have started to display and sell art online. However, the Internet is not the only force putting great effort in disseminating Chinese art to the world. The Chinese government and cultural institutions actively help Chinese artists get their work shown at Biennales, art fairs and at such internationally well-known museums as The Louvre in Paris, France.
