On 29th September, the last rival trial brought by art dealer Enrico Navarra during his lifetime, this one for "corruption" against Philippe Koutouzis ended after several years of proceedings, with the acquittal of all the defendants: Jean-Paul Desroches, former curator of the Guimet Museum and his wife, Marlborough Gallery and Pierre Levai, Chu Teh-Chun's widow and son Yvon Chu, and Philippe Koutouzis, Founder of T'ang Haywen Archives.

We are pleased to announce an interview of Philippe Koutouzis, Founder of T’ang Haywen Archives, is printed in the latest edition of the French magazine Surréalismus.

T'ang Haywen Archives has co-authored with Dr. Irka Hajdas of ETH University Zurich, an article published on 15 October 2019 by Cambridge University Press on Carbon-14 testing on paper and detection of the forged paintings of T'ang Haywen.

Philippe Koutouzis, Founder and President of T'ang Haywen Archives, shares his insights and art expertise in an interview by Union Française des Experts (UFE) in Paris, an organization that dedicates to bring together some of the best arts experts in their field.

"In recent years, Navarra was involved in several high-profile legal disputes. A longstanding battle between Navarra and dealer Philippe Koutouzi ended in 2018 when Paris’s High Court granted Koutouzi ownership of the copyright to works by artist T’ang Haywen." - Extract of the article published by ARTnews

Guo Gan's music, entitled "Drunken Ink", frames and strengthens the medium of communication without however taking precedence over its content; it catalyzes the process of perception of the Boogie as a whole without preventing us from returning to the works, i.e. at the source; a very rare thing nowadays. T'ang Boogie, silent or set to music can fascinate, hypnotize or frighten others.

Summer Day in the Mountain (jour d'été dans la montagne), is representative of a series of works by T'ang Haywen painted around 1975, will be a part of the upcoming Modern and Contemporary Art sale of Bonhams Hong Kong.
