Today, October 29, 2018 – More problematic auctions
A New Jersey auction house pulled several cultural Native American items from an upcoming sale. The Association on American Indian Affairs requested they be removed from the auction block, although it’s unclear where the items came from or if they are, in fact, sacred. It’s the latest incident in a long line of recent struggles between tribes and auction houses over sacred and culturally important items being offered to the highest bidder. We’ll get an update on this auction and some others planned in the coming weeks. We’ll also hear from those who keep an eye on the issue about any progress on protecting tribal patrimony.
