BOULDER, Colo. - ColoradoDesk -- Artemis Fine Arts and Arte Primitivo will host a meticulously-curated online-only auction on June 11-12, marking the third time the two auction powerhouses have joined forces to produce an event that compatibly showcases the best of their respective consignments. In their debut joint auction held in February, strong international bidding boosted the total to nearly $1.5 million.

Day One, on Thursday, June 11, will showcase fine Pre-Columbian and Spanish Colonial art, while Day Two brings together Native American, Tribal, African, Egyptian, Greek, Roman and Near Eastern antiquities, Asian art, fine art, fossils and more. The auction is now open for bidding through Artemis Fine Arts' dedicated online platform, as well as Arte Primitivo's online bidding system, plus LiveAuctioneers and Invaluable and, for the first time, Drouot, the internationally-renowned Paris-based company known for its association with elite European auction houses.

Artemis Fine Arts is known internationally as a premier authority in the field of ancient and ethnographic art. Arte Primitivo is a New York City auctioneer that specializes in Pre-Columbian, African, tribal, ethnographic and ancient art. In concert, the two firms conduct auctions that celebrate the world's greatest cultures and civilizations through a selection of premier pieces from private and institutional collections.

The June 11-12 online auction will start on both days at 9am MT/ 11am ET. Absentee bidding is currently in progress. Internet bidding is seamless across all platforms.

Following the main event, bidders may participate in Arte Primitivo's Post-Auction Sale of Unsold Lots via the Arte Primitivo website – an additional opportunity to secure coveted pieces. This secondary sale will revert to Arte Primitivo's longstanding timed format (the primary auction alone will utilize the new live-style structure).

While the collaboration offers exceptional flexibility through multiple bidding avenues, clients are encouraged to utilize Arte Primitivo's or Artemis Fine Arts' native platforms, where buyer's premiums are more advantageous and based on the winning bidder's chosen method of payment. Dedicated specialists from both firms will be available by phone before, during and after the auction.
