From The Dallas Morning Newspaper; April 12th, 2021
Neiman Marcus is selling some of its history and valuables that have been displayed and stored for decades as part of the luxury retailer’s corporate art collection.
The Neiman Marcus corporate art collection dates back to 1951, when Stanley Marcus (1905-2002), a life long avid art collector, purchased Mariposa, a large mobile by Alexander Calder and started a long tradition of buying original artwork for new stores as they opened. The Mariposa sold at a Sotheby’s auction last month fetching $18.2 million. The items are being offered through Sotheby's auction house, NYC, New York and Heritage Auction, Dallas, Texas.
Many of the pieces were personally collected by Stanley Marcus from the 1960s through the 1980s.
Some of the pieces are from corporate spaces, stores and the company’s archives, among the items are important antique textiles, tribal robes and embroidery, all handmade items from China, the Middle East, Southeast Asia, Africa and the Oceana region of the Pacific.
The luxury retailer permanently closed several stores and vacated two large office spaces in downtown Dallas last year as part of its bankruptcy. Neiman Marcus, which operates 37 Neiman Marcus stores, Bergdorf Goodman in New York and five Last Call stores, has been shoring up its balance sheet.
“We have notable pieces that we want to transfer to other collectors so they can be preserved with care,” Neiman Marcus spokeswoman Amber Seikaly said. “These are things that deserve to be in peoples’ homes.”
For many years, the Neiman Marcus Collection had a dedicated curator and included a couple of thousand pieces.
