One of my passions is collecting exceptional, African Miniatures. Like many enthusiasts, I began collecting miniatures because small scale carvings are works of art all on their own and they are often affordable. Miniatures have an incredible range of artistic styles and forms. My collection includes fetishes, power figures, miniature masks and amulets. Fetish and power figures were used for healing, protection. prosperity, fertility, hunting and witchcraft. Small masks and amulets were used during initiations, funerals, for education, healing and protection against harm. Whether it is the sensitive detail or intimacy of the carving, African miniatures are stimulating works of art that speak a language of their own.

For the past 45 years, Robert Fiedler has had a passion for collecting fine African Art. After obtaining degrees in Anthropology, he developed an interest for African art while touring European museums, galleries and antique shops in 1975. Through associations with tribal art dealers, private collectors and museum groups, Robert developed an experienced eye for finding quality, older African material.

With his background in Anthropology, Robert values the ritual and social use of African objects and how they served a function in cultural society. Like many collectors he appreciates the aesthetics, the rare quality and artistic style of each carving.

In 2005 Robert and his wife, Pamela opened their first gallery called Arteology in downtown Santa Fe. In 2011 they found a new location and opened Intrigue Gallery in the historic Canyon Road Art District. The gallery merges antique African art from Robert’s collection and features Pamela’s contemporary, figurative art.

Robert started his website www.GalleryTribalArt in 2009 offering quality, authentic African pieces hand picked from his private collection. For 7 years Robert was an exhibitor in the Objects of Art show in Santa Fe during August.
