Red Gate Gallery was founded in 1991 by Australian, Brian Wallace, who first traveled to China in 1984. He returned staying to study and to work then entered the Central Academy of Fine Arts in Beijing to study Chinese Art History. Through 1988-9 he organized exhibitions with friends at the Ancient Observatory. The contemporary art scene was in its infancy. Wallace established Red Gate Gallery in the Ming Dynasty Watchtower at Dongbianmen. The inaugural exhibition of July 1991 showcased the works of Zhang Yajie, Dagong, Wang Lifeng and Wang Luyan. In 2011 Red Gate Gallery celebrated it’s 20th year with a exhibition in Beijing, Shanghai and a tour of Australia in 2012. For 23 years. Red Gate has been at the forefront of Chinese contemporary art.
