News February 06

Dear $email,

Some exciting news this month and some interesting perspectives for the future.

Etribal and Tribal magazine decided to become a magazine again.

I will participate at the Biennial Fair of Antiques of Lisbon. The fair will be from 18 March to 26 March 2006.The last fair was very successful.

Let me know if you need details on how to participate yourself, or if you know high end antique dealers willing to participate ( tribal art or not ), or if you need an invitation. If you live around Lisbon, I can also come visit you.

At the end of the email, I'll show you some items for sale at this moment.
Can I please also ask those of you who bought from me in the past, and those intending to perhaps do so in the future to answer this mail and give me you home address, phone number, and collecting field ?
Thanks,

David Norden

The 52nd Annual Winter Antiques Show runs through 29 Janunary 2006 at the Seventh Regiment Armory PLUCK. When they work, it works. So, welcome to the 52nd Annual Winter Antiques Show which opens today on Park Avenue. This was once the best, hands-down swellest event of its kind in the New York season, but it has competition now. Lots. The Seventh Regiment Armory has functioned as a glorified loading dock for all kinds of shows, coming and going, with specialty items like the International Asian Art Fair and the Tribal and Textile Arts Show generating serious incandescence.

But if admiring art was enough to change the world, Africa would have got justice long ago, says Jonathan Jones. He decided to go in search of the art that doesn't get into galleries but which has real function in the lives of ordinary Africans.
