Art collectors get ready!
On Friday, February 12, 2010 Bonham's African and Oceanic Art Auction will take place in San Francisco. The 280 lots feature unique and traditional works from sub-Saharan Africa, Polynesia, Melanesia, Micronesia, Indonesia and Australia that were created in the early 20th Century or earlier. Made by the artists for religious, ceremonial or secular use within their culture, objects in the sale include figurative sculpture, masks, reliquaries, shrines, architectural ornaments, clubs, shields, vessels, stools, neck rests, instruments, body adornment and many daily utilitarian objects.
On the Tuesday before the auction, the lots will open to the public for those interested in a preview where guests are invited to view artwork first-hand and encouraged to ask questions. But until then, Jacaranda Tribal will highlight some of the top lots that will be up for sale with pictures. So stay tuned!
