Aktis Gallery is dedicated to Modern art, with a focus on Chinese and Russian émigré artists working in Paris during the second half of the 20^th century. Specialising in lyrical abstract paintings and non-conformist art of the Soviet era, the gallery also houses a growing inventory of works by renowned Chinese artists, Chu Teh Chun, Zao Wou Ki and Gao Xingjian.

I have been working with Aktis gallery since 2012 on various projects related to Chinese art, helping the gallery to communicate with the Chinese audience and clients.
