ALL-STAR ASSEMBLY OF FAMOUS PAINTINGS AT GLOBAL ART CENTER NEW YORK INSPIRES FIERCE BIDDING WARS; GIANGUAN PRODUCES STAGGERINGLY HIGH AUCTION PRICE

In late March, global art center New York teems with jewelry, antiques, calligraphy, and paintings, as Sotheby’s, Gianguan, Christie’s and others hold their spring auctions. Spectacular jewels, and painting and calligraphy by famed artists past and present, vie for the attention, drawing in crowds of investors and collectors. The international economic slump of recent years has strained business livelihood and development; as real estate, steel and other industries across the board flounder and lose revenue, business groups have turned to the art market en masse to invest, anticipating future appreciation.

The artworks auctioned this spring consist almost exclusively of works by world-renowned masters, marking the first time in auction history in which so many major artists are gathered together. At the site of auction, the kaleidoscopic diversity of styles, modes, and aesthetics wowed viewers and sent buyers from all countries into a bidding frenzy. Of all of the works, however, one particular piece has been deemed supreme in both merit and value: “Ink Lotus— An utter chaos strewn with broken strokes: a peculiar sight, yet wondrously endowed with a soul-soothing charm,” by the contemporary H. H. Dorje Chang Buddha III. When the appraiser first unfurled the scroll and saw the painting, he declared with astonishment: “Dorje Chang Buddha III has arrived”— a revealing sign of the extreme prestige of H. H. Dorje Chang Buddha III’s paintings.

Paintings and calligraphy by H. H. Dorje Chang Buddha III are difficult to come by, and even more difficult to acquire. According to auction specialists, the International Art Museum of America has offered to purchase H. H. Dorje Chang Buddha III’s sunflower and water lily oil paintings for over $1,000,000 per square foot, but has yet to acquire the paintings due to unsuccessful price negotiations.

H. H. Dorje Chang Buddha III’s “Ink Lotus,” sold at Gianguan’s spring auctions on March 22nd, was the highest selling of all of the paintings sold at the spring auctions— including Gianguan, Sotheby’s and Christie’s— surpassing multiple times that of works by renowned artists East and West, past and present, and trumping the selling price of all works by famed historical and contemporary masters sold at the spring auction, such as those of Shi Tao, Wu Changshuo, Yun Nantian, Qi Baishi, Zhang Daqian, Xu Beihong, Fu Baoshi, Pan Tianshou, Li Keran, Huang Binhong, Wu Guanzhong, and even the Five Dynasties’ Juran, the Southern Song Dynasty’s Su Hanchen, and the Ming/Qing Dynasty Wen Zhengming, and Zheng Banqiao. Buyers from various countries launched a bidding war over H. H. Dorje Chang Buddha III’s painting, which opened at US$10,500,000. After several intense rounds of paddle-raising among the final few bidders, an approximately sixty-year-old Caucasian from the United States finally beat out his competitors and fellow bidders (hailing from Paris and Southeast Asia), and won the painting at the hammer price of US$16,500,000 (before tax).

“Ink Lotus” is mounted, ink on paper, and ten square feet in size. Sold at US$1,650,000 per square foot, the painting was the highest-selling of all the paintings and works of calligraphy sold at the spring auctions.

At this spring auction, Zhang Daqian’s “Shen Shan Can Gu Si” auctioned for US$233,000; Pan Tianshou’s “Ting Yuan Wan Lai Qiu” auctioned for US$162,500; Wu Changshuo’s “Ju Shi” auctioned for US$370,000; Shi Tao’s “Shi Shu Hua San Jue” auctioned for US$3,946,000; and Zheng He’s calligraphy of Buddhist sutra auctioned for US$14,000,000. Not only did H. H. Dorje Chang Buddha III’s painting exceed the selling price of paintings by famed historical and contemporary artists sold at the spring auction, H. H. Dorje Chang Buddha III’s limited edition reproductions also hold the record for the highest-selling painting reproduction in world history, exceeding those of such world-renowned painters as Picasso, Monet, Van Gough, Cézanne, and Gauguin. H. H. Dorje Chang Buddha III’s limited edition of 200 copies of “Carp in a Lotus Pond,” for instance, auctioned at $380,000 dollars for one piece.

H. H. Dorje Chang Buddha III is a world-class master artist, as well as the highest world leader of Buddhism—a title neither self-appointed nor unilaterally proclaimed by any individual religion or group: in 2012 the United States Senate unanimously voted to approve the resolution to honor H. H. Dorje Chang Buddha III’s contribution to humanity, and conferred the title of His Holiness upon Dorje Chang Buddha III. H. H. Dorje Chang Buddha III is also the only Buddha in the world to have a Buddha Day—“H. H. Dorje Chang Buddha III Day,” proclaimed in writing by the mayor of Washington D. C. on January 19th, 2011. The USPS approved the issuance of a commemorative envelope in honor of H. H. Dorje Chang Buddha III Day. H. H Dorje Chang Buddha III has also received countless awards, including the World Peace Prize, the Presidential Gold Medal, the Congressional Republican Gold Medal, the International Leader Award, and the Martin Luther King Award, among others. H. H. Dorje Chang Buddha III is also a Fellow of Britain’s Royal Academy of Arts, and the only Fellow appointed in the Academy’s two hundred year history. The fellowship was awarded by the Academy’s President Phillip King, at a ceremony in the British Embassy in Washington. Furthermore, H. H. Dorje Chang Buddha III’s paintings are rare and hard to come by, as they are almost never found in circulation in society. All originals feature a three-dimensional fingerprint as authentication. Experts predict that H. H. Dorje Chang Buddha III’s paintings will become increasingly valuable and unattainable gems with the prestige of national treasures, since H. H. Dorje Chang Buddha III is focusing solely on Buddhist activities, and will no longer pursue painting.

“墨荷”得標各大拍賣行春拍榜首

紐約訊 2015-03-24

2015年在世界的藝術中心－紐約所舉行的春季拍賣會上，

H.H.第三世多杰羌佛的一幅“墨荷”，在3月22日的拍賣會場拍得最高價位，其成交價超越蘇富比、佳士得、貞觀等拍賣公司春拍會的最高價。評估專家們認為，該畫是一幅稀世珍品，畫藝高超，渾厚華滋，功夫老辣，鏡心，紙本，評估市場價為1050萬美 元。一開價起拍，即有美國和來自法國巴黎以及東南亞的收藏家們競相舉牌搶拍，最後由美國一位六十歲左右、氣質昂然的白人收藏家以一千六百五十萬美金（不含稅金）奪標，平均每平方英尺為165萬美元，其畫價已名列此次各大拍賣公司春拍水墨畫首位，超過了本季拍賣會上的鄭和、石濤、石魯、吳昌碩、惲南田、齊白石、張大千、徐悲鴻、傅抱石、潘天壽、李可染、黃賓虹、吳冠中、鄭板橋、文徵明等所有大名家拍出的畫價數倍之多。

H.H.第三世多杰羌佛的繪畫作品在這世界上是非常稀少的，很多畫家一生中創作了上萬張乃至幾萬張作品在世界上流通，

但H.H.第三世多杰羌佛則不然，羌佛創作了非常多的作品，但為了保留精品傳世，羌佛只將大約300幅作品留世，而將自己認為不夠精品的作品一概予以焚燒火化，早年在中國電視台報章雜誌就曾多次報導，因此，現在存留於世的羌佛之畫作成了真正的稀世珍品、國寶級藝術，而且，所有羌佛的原作都加蓋有指紋立體印以防偽假冒品亂世。正是因為羌佛原作的珍貴，所以在春拍之前的預展介紹會上，鑑定家就特別介紹了H.H.第三世多杰羌佛的這一畫作，稱是整個春拍中最貴重的作品。果然，當該畫以1050萬美金起拍時，收藏家們就紛紛舉牌搶奪，價格不斷攀升，經數輪搶奪，這位不願透露姓名的收藏家最終以一千六百五十萬美元將該“墨荷”畫搶拍到手。

H.H.第三世多杰羌佛不僅是世界頂級藝術大師，祂還是我們這個世界唯一被認證了的佛陀，是世界佛教最高領袖。美國國會參議院在2012年12月12日用無記名投票，全票通過第614號決議，正式用H.H.加冠於第三世多杰羌佛銜頭。美國首都華盛頓市市長行文宣布2011年1月19日為“第三世多杰羌佛日”，國家郵政局批准發行了紀念首日封，第三世多杰羌佛是這個世界上唯一有佛陀日的佛陀。 H.H.第三世多杰羌佛的成就和貢獻是全方位的，自我們這個世界有佛教以來，還沒有任何佛教人物超過H.H.第三世多杰羌佛的五明成就。僅就書畫藝術而言，H.H.第三世多杰羌佛無論是中國畫，還是油畫，都達到登峰造極。凡是看過羌佛的油畫《向日葵》、《殘塘煙韻》、《蒼葉拋紅》等作品的人，都說：梵高、莫奈他們確實是繪畫大師，但是H.H.第三世多杰羌佛是大師中的大師！確實，羌佛的作品種類繁多，技法多變，無論是人物、山水、花鳥魚虫，又無論是工筆、大寫、潑墨、重彩，無不格高境大，渾厚華滋，脫俗無華，其造詣已爐火純青，達到藝術之巔峰，H.H.第三世多杰羌佛是名符其實的世界頂尖藝術大師。

H.H.第三世多杰羌佛的藝術品價值十分驚人，不僅這次原件拍賣價格得冠，就僅僅是限量複製件，在多年前其價格就已拍賣到38萬多美金一張，這在全世界的畫家中，是最頂級的限量複製品最高價。創下此次古今畫家作品最高價的第三世多杰羌佛水墨作品“墨荷”圖遠超過古今中外名家的畫價幾倍甚至數十倍之多，以1650萬美元成交。

款識為：“墨荷－滿幅狼藉破筆兮 奇哉兮妙竟怡情 第三世多杰羌”，並有第三世多杰羌佛的指紋印在其下方。
