Parcours des Mondes 2014

August 28, 2014

The international tribal art fair, Parcours Des Mondes, will return for its thirteenth year from 9-14 September 2014, spanning the Saint-Germain-des-Près neighbourhood in Paris.

Tribal arts, including textiles, are annually explored here in all their forms and across all continents: the arts of Africa have of course the place of honour in today’s market, but the event also provides a plunge into the arts of Asia, Oceania and the Americas, as well as exploring domains such as the Himalayas, Southeast Asia and India. More than sixty specialist galleries will be participating including Thomas Murray, Michael Evans, Jonathan Hope, Chris Boylan, Entwistle, Brant Mackley and Donald Ellis.
