Timeline
Jean-Marc Decrop (born 1955 in France) is a specialist of Chinese contemporary art.
He is one among the art collectors who have contributed to the discovery, the recognition and the influence of Chinese contemporary art abroad.
Passionnate about art, but convinced that management is also important in culture, he studies management (ESCP Promo 1978 Harvard PMD 1987), taking responsibility of the cultural committee of his school.
He starts his career as cultural attaché at the French Embassy of Asuncion in Paraguay but quickly moves to Asia where, as an expatriate in Japan (1982 -1987) on his free time from business, he organizes several exhibitions (contemporary Japanese sculpture and photography).
He discovers Chinese Contemporary Art in 1992, starts his collection, sets up as a resident in Hong Kong in 1993 and deepens his knowledge with Chinese avant-garde.
Influenced by his relationship with Hans van Dijck (co-founder with Ai Weiwei of the gallery CAAW in Beijing), he is also at that time a partner with Johnson Chang for the gallery Hanart Taipei, of which he is a 25% shareholder during 1995-2000.
Partner and artistic advisor of Paris Galerie Loft from 1999 to 2007, he produces as a forerunner several pioneering monographic exhibitions of major Chinese contemporary artists:
Meanwhile he also curates non-commercial shows at 11 museums or foundations for which he writes catalogue essays, among which :
His actions progressively contribute to the recognition of Chinese art in Europe.
Through his purchases as a collector and as a gallerist, he supports this movement and its artists.
He organizes loans, via Galerie Loft of good Chinese artworks to international museums (from 1999 to 2006 more than 100 works loaned to 26 museums); writes many articles and essays ; provides unremittingly information and photographs to european newspapers, magazines and media ; collaborates with publishing houses for illustration of books and novels with Chinese artworks Bleu de Chine, Chine en poche, les Éditions de l'Olivier, Éditions Philippe Picquier).
CNN broadcasting of a film on the exhibition « Futuro », 2000 CACOM Macau Contemporary Art Centre, Macau, curator Jean-Marc Decrop guided tour and interview.
In November 2001, he is appointed expert at the French National Chamber of Experts CNES for Chinese contemporary art.
He becomes then the first European expert certified in that specialty.
In 2001, he sells his personal collection of Figuration Narrative (Auction Poulain-Le Fur, Paris, February 2001, to devote its resources exclusively to Chinese art. His Chinese collection, rich in key works from the period 1985-1995 amounts then to some 500 artworks, placing it among the major collections in that field (Guy Ullens, David Tang, Uli Sigg). From an early stage, he tries to encourage French intellectuals and journalists to write about Chinese art by inviting them to tour workshops and artists studios in Beijing : Christine Buci-Glucksmann, Pierre Cornette de Saint Cyr, Michel Nuridsany (Le Figaro), Henri-François Debailleux Libération ).
He helps to build many European collections (collection Guy Ullens; collection Gillion-Crowet; collection of Flers; collection of Harold t'Kint Roodenbeke; collection Samir Sabet d'Acre and Florence Pucci; collection DSL Levy)
