About

WEBSTER COLLECTION

WEBSTER COLLECTION presents masterpieces of ancient and contemporary art, continuing to specialize in Fine Art (paintings, photographs, sculpture), Ethnographic Art (American Indian, pre-Columbian, tribal art), Collectibles (American/Spanish Colonial/Asian antiques), and Folk Art, Furniture (Knoll International), and through W Department – Apparel, Jewelry, and Accessories from nationally and internationally renowned artists and designers – by “Defining Excellence in Art” since inception in 1972.  The introduction, promotion, and sale of the art of yesteryear, as well as today, are accomplished through various methods of exposure combined with communication and collaboration with colleagues, collectors, and authorities in both private and institutional environments. From those origins came the opportunity to establish a significant library focused on the indigenous peoples of the Americas and their history, culture, lifestyle, and art, and to set aside certain objects as a collection, The New World Collection, that today consists primarily of representative examples from the American Southwest, Mexico, and Peru – the initial locations of Spanish exploration during the Age of Discovery. WEBSTER COLLECTION constantly showcases an eclectic mix of art, artifacts, and apparel from its second-floor location on The Plaza, a space emulating a 17th – 18th Century Mexican Colonial-era hacienda, while periodically featuring extraordinary shows of contemporary artists’ works throughout the year.
