|
May 14 - 18, 2009
69th REGIMENT ARMORY Lexington Avenue at 26th Street New York City |
There had always been a very strong market for antique tribal, ethnographic art and objects in Europe but interest in the United States at the time we pioneered our first show in Los Angeles in 1985 was limited to only a few dealers and collectors. The show was an immediate success and two years later in 1987 it premiered in San Francisco to an enthusiastic market. Then in 1995 the first New York International Tribal show opened its doors to a highly motivated group of investors and collectors. With the momentum growing in the United States this show quickly became known as one of the worlds most prestigious events. Sales of antique fine arts and ancient artifacts of native peoples from Africa, The Americas, Oceania, Asia and Australia boomed.
At this show, seventy of tribal art's most respected and prestigious galleries/dealers from Europe, Africa, the Far East as well as the United States elegantly present the highest art forms of the indigenous peoples. |
