From matter-of-fact, to 80s wow and back to minimalism and elegant slickness: typography, branding and design predilections might have changed dramatically over the 50 years of Webb’s history, but the heart of the business remains the same.

One chapter in that story came courtesy of iconic New Zealand artist Billy Apple, who helped usher Webb’s into a new era by designing a wordmark that condensed the Peter Webb Galleries brand to a single surname. Typical of his sophisticated understanding of how type and text work, Apple added a prominent apostrophe, turning the name into the possessive: a clever manoeuvre that graphically reinforced the nature of the business.

What a pleasure to celebrate the 2026 Arts Foundation Te Tumu Toi Laureates.

The Webb’s team was delighted to join the evening and congratulate Catherine Chidgey, et al., Emily Karaka, Victoria Kelly, Tyrone Ohia, Anapela Polata’ivao, Madeleine Sami and Sriwhana Spong on this honour.

Webb’s is a proud Arts Business Club donor, reflecting our longstanding commitment to the arts and the people who shape Aotearoa’s cultural landscape. We are pleased to support the Arts Foundation Te Tumu Toi and the important work it does to champion, recognise and celebrate creative practitioners across the country.

Our warmest congratulations to all eight Laureates on this richly deserved recognition.

Bidding on The Estate: Design Edit closes online, from 8pm tonight, and there is still time to explore these pieces in person. If you believe the right lamp can do as much for a room as any chair, the Italian lighting in this sale deserves a detour, with Roberto Pamio’s Gill and Gianfranco Frattini’s Artemesia torchère both treating light as something to be sculpted.

Those who enjoy gathering around a table will find Finnish warmth in Tapiovaara’s Pirkka and a cooler, more architectural line in the Oscar Niemeyer-inspired Brasilia by David Lopez Quincoces. Meanwhile, for the collector who enjoys a footnote, a rare chair by Whanganui architect Michael Payne carries something of the optimism of Expo ‘70 in Osaka.

For rare vintage to expressive contemporary items by New Zealand and global icons of industrial design, explore the full catalogue online and in our Mount Eden Gallery and The Estate Showroom now.

Bidding closes tonight from 8pm on the John B. Turner Collection of Photographs and Books, a single-owner sale drawn from six decades of collecting by the photographer, editor and educator who helped shape contemporary New Zealand photography.

Part of John B. Turner’s practice as a photographer and photographic printer involved reprinting the glass negatives of prominent and unknown New Zealand photographers from the 19th and 20th centuries. He also ran numerous printing workshops for his students and contemporaries. Consequently, included in this auction are a variety of reprints made from original photographic negatives by other photographers, and some made as copies of rare analogue prints in the pre-digital era.

Highlights include Turner’s own early work, Ans Westra, Peter Peryer, Harvey Benge and William J Harding, alongside over 800 lots of books and publications.

“Isn’t life a series of images that change as they repeat themselves?”
— Andy Warhol
 
Marilyn. Mona Lisa. Queen Elizabeth II. Beethoven. Buzz Aldrin. Warhol was fascinated by images we already knew. Through repetition, colour and screenprinting, he transformed celebrities and cultural icons into icons of his own. Discover a suite of Sunday B Morning After Andy Warhol screenprints in Webb’s latest Design Edit.
 
The Estate’s Design Edit is written in the language of modernism, with a few unexpected accents. For those who measure a collection by its icons, the Eames Lounge Chair and Ottoman and Noguchi’s coffee table need little introduction. Followers of Italy’s unmistakable flair will find plenty to linger over, from the deep, easy comfort of Mario Marenco’s sofa to lighting that treats glass and metal as sculpture. Purists of the Bauhaus and De Stijl are equally well served, with Breuer’s timeless Cesca chairs and Rietveld’s Utrecht Armchair making the case for structure as its own ornament. And for those who prize the singular over the canonical, a considered group of works by Stephane Rondel which add a more personal and playfully sculptural note.
 
Design Edit is a special selection of curated, industrial design objects within our highly popular fortnightly online auction, The Estate. It is devoted to collectable and exceptionally rare pieces of furniture, ceramics, and art from design’s most recognisable eras and movements from New Zealand and beyond. All lots are on view at our Mount Eden gallery and The Estate Showroom; with bidding taking place online.
