>> Joanna Chevalier, Hervé Mikaeloff and François Sarkozy, co-founders of CMS COLLECTION, attend Asia Now Art fair for the second year in a row. The artistic selection this year is based on the work of Huong DODINH.
Huong DODINH was born in 1945 in Vietnam. Her parents chose to leave the nation and settled in Paris when she was eight years old. Vietnamese by origin, French by adoption, she has drawn on this cultural wealth to create a unique artistic language, a bridge between East and West.
CMS COLLECTION has decided to exhibit Huong DODINH, whose artistic geometry transcribes the system of perception of the world. Her practice is imbued with great spirituality; her creative process is a form of meditation.
With the support of CMS COLLECTION, Huong DODINH is experiencing two major simultaneous exhibitions: a solo show at the Paris Asian Art Fair - Asia Now and a temporary show at the Musée Guimet from 20 October to 13 December.
CMS COLLECTION is a platform to support contemporary creation, born from the meeting of Joanna Chevalier, Hervé Mikaeloff and François Sarkozy, three personalities coming from different and complementary backgrounds, sharing a genuine passion for art and putting their expertise at the service of artists.
Originally a grouping of three collectors wishing to pool their strengths and bring their views into dialogue, CMS Collection is both a common collection and a tool to accompany the creators who appear in it in their artistic journey.
CMS Collection intervenes at different moments of an artist's career. Together, the three founders scour the international artistic landscape in search of artists destined for great recognition, enrich their common collection, build bridges with institutions by participating in the dissemination of remarkable works, and establish long-term collaborations with public and private players in the art world.
CMS Collection is an agile and organic structure that creates an innovative model that complements existing art and art market mechanisms, and develops as a true bridge between various key players, foundations, galleries, collectors, museums and institutions.
