Massim Figure by the Artist Mutuaga.Crispin Howarth Oceanic Art.













XXXXX


Tribal Melbourne would like to thank everyone who has enjoyed visiting this site over the past seven years.

It is with some regret that my passion in the new year will be re-channelled to academic pursuits and in this light, I wish to issue the following statement in accordance with the International Council of Museums code of ethics.
This effectively means observing the accepted standards of my future profession.

a) I am no longer interested in acquiring works of art for a personal collection or on behalf of other collectors or institutions apart from following the interests of my employer.

b) Trade, purchase, sale of art works and associated advice & discussion will not be entered into apart from following the interests of my employer.

However, it is with some joy and elation that I will happily continue to work with the art forms we all love and will make the very best of the opportunity to widen the field of appreciation for Pacific Art not only here in Australia, but for the World.
