1. We have only collected 3 decent pieces of art so far, hard to pick a favourite, they're all pretty special to us. One was a swap, one was a wedding present, and one was a purchase. Had this since about 98/99, Lucy Culliton painting, 6 mounted panels, 1998.
2. Hmm tough one, the Mt Rushmore sculpture? Actually I'd most likely choose an early impressionist. Or could certainly go for a Lucien Freud.
3. A current Nicholas Harding.
BTW Brainless, A shop in Chinatown (Sydney) has a Gary Baseman "8 inch Dunny" vinyl toy new in a box for $98. Sound fake?
KGB, $15k will get you a KDB work on paper. Show I saw recently at Kaliman, all paintings were pre-sold, as far as I could work out for $25k. |

You can expect to pay around $80-$100 for the red one and the Black one $180+ ...but you wont see a black one about ...or in a shop, they sold out last year within 15 minutes. |

1.I have 2 hand coloured woodgraphs by an artist called Dore from New Orleans of the Cafe Dumonde and the Riverboat that have a lot of sentimental value to me. I spent a day there every week for 8 months when I was working on a cruise ship & absolutely fell in love with the place & they remind me of very happy times.
2. Thats hard, there's so many but I'll pick Nevermore by Paul Gauguin
3. Can I get a Brett Whitely drawing for $20,000? |
