My Name is Joseph Sharon I'm a 100% disabled USMC Vietnam Veteran, I don’t like bashing Museums, Auction Houses, or crony dealers but sadly the corruption is too deep, I speak out to expose the corruption that permeates the entire fine Asian art market in America and the World. I started collecting in the 70s and in the 90s I began to put together a very fine collection from private Chinese sources that risk severe persecution just owning their collections that were passed down by ancestors that were in power long before the Communist. Sadly all people cannot partake in the auction process in China or America. In China you must be part of the CCP, in America if you built an important collection on your own or have one important piece but haven't purchased from the Cabal of Auction Houses or their crony dealers they will totally lie and discriminate against you. This American Cabal of Auction Houses have unwritten laws that everyone in the art business understands clearly, you don't go against them. Sotheby's, Christies, and Bonham’s are the main controllers of the art markets and narrative throughout the world. The Museums, Universities and Crony Dealers are just puppets that will agree with whatever the auction houses want because if they don't they'll be blacklisted never to work in the Art business again or be able to sell anything. It's all about the money. Collectors that buy from the Cabal believe they are buying quality pieces that will increase in value over time and 99% of the pieces they bought will never go up because they continue to lie about rarity and what are the finest pieces and refuse to offer the best pieces in their auctions. This Cabal of liars and thieves are robbing collectors because they discriminate against collectors such as myself. My Collection of Ru Ware and other masterpieces prove they have been withholding the finest from the open market. Many of the old collections that were put together before China was taken over by the Communist in 1949, are mostly pieces that are just examples the Chinese people kept the best pieces themselves. Today the Cabal continues selling the same old collection to collectors telling them they have good provenance which means nothing. When China opened up in the 90s this gave many Chinese people the ability to sell their collections because they live in fear of being caught by the Communist with art collections. This allowed some collectors to put together very fine collections. The Cabal has continued to sell old collections at auction and sell pieces through their private sales and network of crony dealers and discriminate against collectors that have built their collection on their own regardless how important the pieces maybe. They believe they can continue telling lies to collectors that buy from them and get away with it just like the Communist in China you only hear what they want you to hear. During the cultural revolution in the 60s the Communist tried to destroy all the art but the Chinese people hid their valuables just as they've done every-time they were invaded and much remained hidden until the 90s. I can tell you that the Auction houses and Museums around the world are not showing you the finest pieces. In America we still have the freedom to speak the truth to expose the corruption that permeates through the entire art market. Collecting Chinese arts is the same as all collectables the finest pieces should rise to the top and they will in time. Many collectors that purchased pieces from the Cabal before the 80s have passed away leaving the children their collections, they will be lucky if 1% are valuable. The Cabal that is controlling the art market believe they have the perfect scam over collectors and they’re the same as the Communist in China. Anyone who supports this Cabal of liars and thieves are also complicit with their corrupt and discriminatory policies in America and China. This Cabal doesn't care about the historic significance the Chinese people have made to mankind through all the art they produced for thousands of years, they only care how much money they can swindle from collectors
