Tribal Art London highlights ethnographic culture

Tribal Art London 2022

Tribal Art London (TAL) returns from 15 to 18 September 2022 to Mall Galleries, London SW1. The fair opens the doors to its first live event post-Covid with its 15th edition.

The UK’s premier showcase in the field of ethnographic culture and tribal art brings together more than 20 exhibitors, internationally-reputable specialists in fine and original tribal works of art drawn from all corners of the globe – Oceania, Africa, Asia, Europe and the Americas, creating an epi-centre of world culture just a stone’s throw from St James’s Park.

A focal point for private collectors, interior designers and institutions looking for extraordinary cultural objects, Tribal Art London offers diverse indigenous art and objects for sale at prices from the low hundreds to over £20,000.

Dealers from the UK, Europe and USA will take part, with specialists in many areas including African masks, Indian textiles, Oceanic cultures, Polynesian art, objects of adornment, costume and jewellery, and American Indian works.

New this year in 2022 will be tours led by expert Ronnie Archer Morgan, plus satellite events are planned. A project to develop a grant to promote traditional textile makers across the African continent, supporting the next generation of textile designers and bringing the history, exemplary craftmanship and creativity of these textiles to an international audience is also in the works.

The project is a collaboration between TAL and Eva Sonaike, Creative Director of Eva Sonaike, a London-based interiors company specialising in luxury textiles and designs with a vibrant West African aesthetic.

Tribal Art London tickets are free. To attend the preview on Wednesday, 14 September 2020, from 3pm to 9pm, e-mail tribalartlondon@gmail.com.
