The young 23 year old Ranee Kok has done it yet again. The Parsons School of Design in New York has created yet another wonder in Ranee Kok. Her winter/fall fashion of 2006 was a beautifully synchronized opera that awed everyone who saw it.

The Hong Kong winter fall week of 2006 saw a lovely collection put together by Ranee Kok who proves her metal to the world yet again. Her exposure to the western world and her Chinese linage blend together once more to showcase a lovely collection of her east meets west signature. The princess of texture created dresses which swirled and danced with the crowd’s heart. The lovely models sashayed down the ramp with large colored feathers and yet one could not help but look at anything other that the lovely designs created by Ranee Kok.

The Mao rule comes to an end and china opens her doors to the rest of the world. Needless to say that this has both positive as well as negative points. China has won the labor war with the world and has emerged the numero uno in the manufacturing world. There are very few things of the developed world that China does not produce. It is this status that inclines one to believe that seminars related to manufacturing and market trends will be very educative, since one will learn how China has won her position and is holding on to it so well.

China has truly arrived. From the water-laden rice fields of drab grey dressing and comrade years China has transformed her to a fresh young lass of the new century. Not only has China earned international repute as a manufacturing country but within her boundaries too the changes are rapid and upward.

The Chinese no longer wear grey overalls,now all genders and classes have access to colors as well as western outfits of all ranges. China provides all kinds of powers to her citizens. The Chinese are known for their dedication to the work as well as their cost effective labor all over the globe.

China’s post-1989 Cynical Realism Movement has shaped and defined what we have come to understand as the major force behind Chinese contemporary art, and the leading artists of this movement, such as Fang Lijun and Yue Minjun, have undoubtedly achieved international status.

For over a decade the Beijing and Swiss based Galerie Urs Meile (founded in 1992) has been promoting contemporary art of high quality. The programme covers most recent developments in the production of Chinese art and represents recognized and emerging artists from China and Europe.
