Since Larasati’s first auction in Jakarta, Indonesia in 2000, the Asian-based auction house’s reputation has successfully extended its presence to six countries in the region, including Singapore, Korea, Taiwan, Japan, and Indonesia. It recently opened an office in Hong Kong, the third-biggest auction market after New York and London. It also has an international sales room in Amsterdam. With a network of Asian-based experts boasting keen insights and expertise into the modern and contemporary Asian art market, Larasati has an excellent track record for discovering future art icons of the East and auctioning their artworks at record prices. Beyond merely buying and selling art objects, Larasati believes in enhancing the appreciation and development of art in Asia, as well as providing emerging artists from Asia the opportunity to showcase their work on a global stage and raise their profile both in their home country and internationally.
