For experts of the tribal art market, Wurzburg is no longer an insider tip.
Wherever in the world non-European art plays a role, the name Zemanek-Münster in Wurzburg is on peoples lips.
The specialists have long been an international hub for the tribal art market, a hub though that proudly stands outside of the major art centres....
The numbers speak for themselves. 2,000 carefully selected works in four auctions per annum, many of which are from old private collections. This is only a small part when compared with the thousands of objects that we have reviewed over previous years whether that be on-site or at the auction house, that is in a former boilermakers workshop with a skylight roof.
