Paintings from the Mi Chou Gallery Collection, Madison Avenue, New York lots 654-750 Believed to be the first Chinese art gallery in America to exhibit and sell classical and contemporary Chinese paintings, Mi Chou was founded by Frank Fulai Cho in 1954 with support from his teacher, C. C. Wang, one of the most renowned Chinese art connoisseurs and collectors of the 1900s. Mi Chou’s exhibitions were unprecedented in style and quality – whether classical, contemporary, or solo shows – and frequently well-received and reviewed in The New York Times, ARTnews, and other important press of that time.

One of the artist’s that the Mi Chou Gallery exhibited and made famous was Chen Chi-kwan (also spelled Chen Qi Kuan). The gallery gave him his first one-man show and introduced his work to Professor Nelson I. Wu of Yale’s Art History Department, who wrote an introductory essay which resulted in much press coverage and the exhibition’s eventual great success. Since then, Chen Chi-kwan’s art is widely collected and recognized by academia, collectors, and the general public.

6 The highest bidder acknowledged by the auctioneer shall be the buyer.

The auctioneer has the right to reject any bid, to advance the bidding at his absolute discretion and in the event of any dispute between bidders, the auctioneer shall have the sole and final discretion either to determine the successful bidder or to re- offer and resell the article in dispute. If any dispute arises after sale, the Freeman’s sale record shall be conclusive in all respects.

7 If the auctioneer determines that any opening or later bid or any advance bid is not commensurate with the value of the Property offered, he may reject the same and withdraw the Property from sale.

8 Upon the fall of the hammer, title to any offered lot or article will immediately pass to the highest bidder as determined in the exclusive discretion of the auctioneer, subject to compliance by the buyer with these Conditions of Sale.
