ART GALLERYSotheby’s

Sotheby's opened a first office in Monaco in 1967 and was the first international auction house to organize public sales in Monaco. Many sales were held in then until the opening of the art market in France, ending 400-year monopoly of French auctioneers.
Since 2001, Sotheby's Monaco's team, directed by Mark Armstrong, keep forging special ties with Monegasque collectors by including works from their collection in major international sessions in Paris, London, Geneva, Hong Kong and New York.

Collection Marceau Rivière - Paris June 19th

In the early 1960s, it was love at first sight between the African continent and expert and art lover Marceau Rivière. His collection is one of the most complete and striking about african art. Through his instinctive approach to works and his artistic sensibility, Marceau Rivière has gathered in a half century of research a collection of works bringing together major stylistic corpuses from sub-Saharan Africa.
The 250 or so works that will be dispersed in Paris on June 19, recall above all that, for the last decades Marceau Rivière has been one of the most fervent defenders of African Art; an art he has never ceased to put on the front of the stage and to transmit to the greatest number.
