Who are the collectors? Chinese tycoons or Western collectors?

Chinese big shots.

In fact, I read that because they don't know much about Western art, they focus on Chinese pieces.

I suspect when they get more educated about Western art, they will start bidding those into the stratosphere also.

Investing trend might be:

- Western art
- Indian art <-- depends on whether Indian millionaires are also not well informed about western art.
