A modern art dealer seduced by primitivism and distant cultures, Martin Doustar gradually specialized in Oceanic art and the cultures of the Indo-Pacific area. Author of several thematic exhibitions noted for their eclecticism and great aesthetic rigor, Martin Doustar has subsequently extended his collections to the arts of Boreal and pre-Columbian America.
