Contemporary Art

Reflecting the ever-changing face of art practice in New Zealand, Webb’s keystone Contemporary sales offer the collector a snapshot of new art that traverses all genres, media and subject matter.

Giving particular focus to New Zealand Contemporary art produced after 1990, Webb’s passion and specialist expertise in this field attracts the most significant Contemporary works available in New Zealand.

Webb’s reputation of working with New Zealand’s most significant Contemporary artists can be traced back to Peter Webb’s first gallery which opened in 1957. Webb exhibited artists that would later be recognised as modern masters and later made a significant contribution to the development of New Zealand’s Contemporary art market. Webb’s continues to be synonymous with high-quality and cutting-edge Contemporary art.
