His firm’s clients include major collectors as well as museums such as the National Gallery (Washington), the Metropolitan Museum, the Rijksmuseum, the Getty Museum, the British Museum, the Art Institute of Chicago, the Morgan Library and Museum, and the van Gogh Museum.

He has taught undergraduate and graduate level courses on connoisseurship for Dartmouth College, Williams College/Clark Art Institute, and NYU's Institute of Fine Arts; he also delivers lectures to classes and museum groups. He has written many articles and catalogues and mounted exhibitions in the U.S. and abroad, focusing on artists such as Dürer, Rembrandt, Whistler, Munch and Picasso, and on French art of the 18th and 19th century.
Mr. Tunick was chosen as the first art dealer to serve on the board of the Art Museum Association of America and was vice president of the Art Dealers Association of America. He has served on the boards of many other arts groups and chaired a committee that advised the New York State Legislature in writing the first disclosure bill regulating the sale of prints. He is the longest serving member (23 years) of the I.R.S. Art Advisory Panel in Washington, which has oversight responsibility for the value of art donated to museums and in estates.
Mr. Tunick has a personal art collection independent of his business and lends to museum exhibitions in the U.S. and abroad. In addition to collecting art, his principal pastime is ocean sailing.
