Ethan Cohen is an American collector and an art dealer based in New York City who specialises in contemporary Chinese and contemporary African art. He was one of the first western dealers to sell work by contemporary Japanese and Chinese artists including Ushio Shinohara and Ai Weiwei.

==Life and career==
He was born to Jerome A. Cohen, an expert in Chinese law and Joan Lebold Cohen, a photographer. His passion for Asian art was greatly influence by his parents. They collected works by young Chinese artist at the time when no galleries were interested in representing Chinese contemporary art. Ethan studied in China in the late 1980s.〔
The first work Ethan Cohen purchased was made by Kong Bai Ji. His love for Chinese art grew deeper after graduating from Harvard college where he majored in East Asian Studies. He then decided to promote and curate Chinese art on his own while working as a designer at Diane Von Furstenberg. Cohen found a space on Greene St and established Art Waves Ethan Cohen Gallery in 1987. In the 1980s he became friend and patron of the young Ai Weiwei, now one of the most famous contemporary Chinese artists. He showed artwork made by artists of The Stars Group, which is the most significant avart-garde art group formed during cultural revolution.〔Jane DeBevoise, http://www.china1980s.org Oct 15, 2009〕
He has visited Dafen Village in China to advise Chinese painters on how to break into the international art market.
