The art and artifacts of indigenous peoples around the globe is termed “ethnographic.” Major areas of focus include African and Oceanic arts and their subsets, with intriguing geographic departures limited only by the number of aboriginal societies still in existence anywhere. While the art and artifacts of the Southwestern region have always been amply represented hereabouts, this broader category includes native American work from throughout the Western Hemisphere.

Within the past decade, several important ethnographic art dealers have pulled up stakes from New York and London and have moved their operations to Santa Fe, joining several other top dealers who were already based there. New Mexico has now become the axis for worldwide ethnographic collecting.
