"When something is hot at this fair, the most beautiful one in New York, it’s superhot."
– Holland Cotter, the New York Times, May 21, 2007
The New York International
Tribal & Textile Arts Show
In 2007, Pulitzer Prize winning New York Times critic Holland Cotter wrote of the New York International Tribal and Textile Show, “, "...when something is hot at this fair, the most beautiful one in New York, it's superhot." It was highpraise but well deserved for the most comprehensive and substantive ethnographic show and sale in the world.
Featuring more than 60 international specialists in textiles and cultural objects from Tribal civilizations across the millennia and around the globe, the show employs its emphasis on textiles to provide museum curators, collectors and connoisseurs not just the most important works to appear in any marketplace, but a setting exceptionally well suited to their appreciation.
The show is scheduled annually to coincide with major ethnographic auctions in New York and is a fixture on the calendars of the world’s principal galleries and collectors.
