First founded in May 1993 by Chen Dongsheng,[6] China Guardian is China's oldest art-auction firm.[5][7] China Guardian was a leader of the Chinese art auction market until the emergence of Beijing Poly International Auction Co Ltd in the mid-2000s.[8] China Guardian is now considered to be Mainland China's 'number 2 auctioneer' behind Beijing Poly International Auction.[9][10] The auction house was also reported to be the world's 4th largest auction house as at November 2012.[11] The current CEO and managing director is Hu Yanyan, who was included in a 2015 Financial Times list as one of the five most powerful women in Asia's art world.[12]
Aside from its headquarters in Beijing and offices in Shanghai and Guangzhou, China Guardian also has offices in Hong Kong, Taiwan, Japan and North America (New York and Canada).[13]
