<p>A unique and individual design store of inspired, timeless objects for you and your home since 2011. // Now back home in Ponsonby, Auckland!</p>

ART+OBJECT was founded in early 2007 with the goal to bring a more contemporary voice to the Australasian auction scene. 

Directors Leigh Melville and Ben Plumbly bring decades of experience of the art and auction worlds together with significant business and professional achievements. A+O has pioneered the presentation of contemporary art and objects in an auction context; our very first auction set this direction and received great support from New Zealand collectors. A+O directors are regular contributors to industry journals, public speakers, media commentators and have sat on peer review panels to public art institutions. 

ART+OBJECT holds ten to twelve auctions per annum  - these are notable for a distinct theme and approach and industry leading catalogue design, exhibition display and online marketing which includes regular video presentations, online bidding and live streaming of auctions. These catalogues can be found in the past archive section of our website. 

The ART+OBJECT team has over thirty years experience providing valuation advice to New Zealand's leading institutions, public galleries, museums and libraries as well as private collectors and estates. Please refer to the valuation section of our website for more information on the services A+O provides in these areas.

A+O's directors and staff are collectors in their own right. It is fair to say the company was founded by collectors for collectors. This has resulted in A+O becoming the leading New Zealand auction house for the sale of large and diverse private and corporate collections.
