Ten of the world's 15 most sought-after artists are of Chinese origin, according to Artprice. In 2011, more than 684 auction results above the million-dollar line were hammered in China, a 36 percent rise over 2010, and 151 more than deals done in the U.S.

Despite the worldwide financial crisis, the global fine art market has seen its best-ever year in 2011, with Asia – especially China – playing a dominant role. China took 39 percent of the world's total turnover (US$10.8 billion) in 2011, a 32 percent surge from the year before. While the U.S. and the U.K. were the runners up with 25 and 20 percent, respectively.

Huang Binhong (1865-1955), born in Jinhua,Zhejiang Province, was a renowned Chinese literati painter and art historian. Huang, who began to learn traditional landscape painting at the age of 6, was famed for his innovations in the literati style. His landscapes were unique for his distinctively "black, dense, thick and heavy" style.

Huang, a master of freehand landscapes, bird-and-flower paintings, calligraphy and art theories, together with his contemporary Qi Baishi, were reputed as "Qi of the North; Huang of the South."

His 1952 "Mind Travelling among Mountains"(40.5cm × 305cm) was hammered at 52.9 million yuan (US$8.3 million) at China Guardian 2011 Autumn Auction in Beijing in Nov.2011, setting a new record for the artist.
