Art achievers

Collections, a monthly magazine that focuses on the knowledge of antiques and caters to people's collecting needs at the middle- and lower-price range, celebrated its 20th birthday recently in Beijing with an awards ceremony. The award, titled "Simple Powers", went to 10 people and institutions that have made achievements in the areas of fine art and collecting. They included Geng Baochang, a leading figure of antique appraisal and identification, China Association of Collectors, China Guardian Auctions and Artron.net. Another famous recipient is Florentijn Hofman, the Dutch artist whose famous installation - the Rubber Duck - just finished its tour to Beijing.
