Dr. Yeqin Zuo commented, “I have known Aileen for several years and have always been impressed by her incredible energy and dedication. Her arrival at the gallery marks a significant development. The combination of her extensive commercial experience and art leadership skills complements Vermilion Art’s longstanding commitment to contemporary Chinese art since 2015.”

Aileen stated, “I feel honored and excited to be joining forces with Yeqin, who founded the first gallery specialising in contemporary Chinese art in Australia. I have the utmost respect for Yeqin and the Vermilion Art team. Their expertise and dedication to art are extraordinary. Together with other new members and the current team, we look forward to achieving new heights.”
