Hunter Biden’s Art Dealer Has Had Deep Ties To China Since 2014

Amid the ongoing controversy of first-time artist Hunter Biden potentially selling paintings for as much as $500,000 with Georges Bergès Gallery, the gallerist’s deep ties to China have resurfaced.

Bergès not only told Resident in 2015 his “plan is to be the lead guy in China,” but he told Quest magazine in 2014 he traveled to China “three or four times a year” and he had a “solid group of about 25 collectors, most of them overseas.” That was seven years ago.

The White House had claimed Hunter Biden and President Joe Biden’s administration would be left in the dark about the anonymous bidders for the artwork in sales this September. They have offered assurances that safeguards are in place to prevent the appeance of access to the White House and any influence over policy being purchased.

But it was reported last week, Hunter Biden is going to attend viewings of the art in Los Angeles and New York with Georges Bergès Gallery, with the reports citing an elevated risk of Biden interacting with bidders in spite of any efforts at anonymity.

White House press secretary Jen Psaki says officials will not know the final buyer – with Bergès, though a close friend of Hunter’s, keeping the final buyer’s identity to himself. Still, some in the media have raised the prospect of a buyer boasting of a Hunter Biden purchase on social media or via conventional news outlets. .

That Bergès is also boasting of a Rolodex full of international collectors is also concerning, as are his long links with China.
