I'd much rather see that content here where it could be discussed, coveted and forever accessible instead of buried and forgotten in a couple days on FB. It's a damn shame the way things have shifted. In addition to the art show there is a massive sale of vintage carved tikis from the likes of Barney West, Andres Bumatay and more with provenance from Trader Vics, Kona Kai and other historically significant locales. The entirety of the collection was purchased before the show, mostly from one unnamed source. More info here: http://laluzdejesus.com/the-art-of-tiki-no-false-idols/ Here are a few photos I stole... (Sven for scale, not for sale) How this was not a major topic on this site this past week is baffling to me.
