In 2005 and 2016, the gallery expanded respectively in Beijing and Shanghai, and fostered a roster of Chinese contemporary artists, including Zeng Fanzi, Yue Minjun, Wang Guanyi, as well as a younger generation of critically acclaimed artists. Pata has also been active in the secondary market and offers outstanding art advisory services to private collectors and institutions.
