Plum Blossoms About

Established in Hong Kong in 1987, Plum Blossoms Gallery is home to museum quality ancient textiles and ground-breaking exhibitions of contemporary Asian art. We are in a unique position to promote the arts of Asia, ancient and modern. Both locally and overseas, our advisory and consultancy services for textiles and paintings have assisted in the building of important private and corporate collections.

Landmark Exhibitions
In the past years Plum Blossoms has blazed new trails in the field of Asian painting. China Image: the New Spirit in 1987, the first exhibition of eleven emerging Chinese artists, represented the gallery's first step in promoting and exploring the field of contemporary Chinese art.

In recent years, Plum Blossoms has taken a major step in promoting young artists from China. Two of the leading mainland artists from the so-called Post '89 generation, Zhu Wei and Wei Dong, became enormously popular internationally after launching their first solo exhibitions at our galleries in Hong Kong and Singapore in 1994 and 1995.

Antiquities Collection
Since its inception, Plum Blossoms has been recognised for its outstanding collections of museum quality early Chinese textiles. The galleries also feature fine Chinese porcelain and furniture, antique Tibetan furniture, carpets and silver and Sino-Tibetan sculpture. Important exhibitions of antique textiles such as Chinese Textiles Masterpieces: Sung, Yuan and Ming, co-organised with Uragami Sokyu-Do, held in Japan in 1988 and Splendid Silk: Textiles and Court Costume of China, jointly presented by Linda Wrigglesworth of London in 1995, are testimony to Plum Blossoms' reputation as one of the best textile dealers in the world.
