About
East Gallery's founder Liu Huan-Hsien received fine art degrees from both Taipei Normal College and National Taiwan Normal University. He has been a gallerist and art dealer for almost near 40 years. Albert Hsiao, East Gallery's general manager, is the second generation of the family and has focused on administration and curation nearly 30 years. East Gallery's core values are professionalism and integrity. The gallery continuously introduces master artists and their most important works to the public; by doing this, the gallery has established an international reputation while being a witness to the changes of the past hundred years of Taiwan's art history.
Since 1987, when East Gallery was established, it has developed many important exhibitions of famous senior artists such as Chen Cheng-Po, Liao Chi-Chun, Chen Chin, Lin Yu-Shan, Kuo Hsueh-Hu, Li Mei-Shu, Huang Tu-Shui, Li Shih-Chiao, Chen Chih-Chi, Tsai In-Tang and Hsiao Ju-Sung etc.
In the art world, East Gallery plays an important role in motivating scholarship by publishing books about art and by their direct involvement in the development of private museums dedicated to Taiwan's history.
As part of the contemporary art world, East Gallery moves forward by representing famous Asian artists practicing overseas such as Daniel Lee, C.J. Yeh and Wu Wen-Yao. Additionally, they exclusively represent the young and talented sculptor Han Hsu-Tung and new media artist in 3D of Jerome Lin. Appreciated by many respected collectors, East Gallery extends Han's base from Taiwan to overseas.
In addition to East Gallery's role of building bridges among senior, mid-career and younger artists to the art market, the Gallery also keeps strong relationships with artists. It collects historical documents, filling information gaps in the art industry and history. Restoration-art exhibitions, memorial exhibitions, documentary exhibitions, story exhibitions, and academic exhibitions are examples of how the gallery continuously passes value from generation to generation while bridging the gaps in art history.
