If fine art was a fair exchange for long lunches shared during 37 years at the Paddington restaurant Lucioâs then John Olsen and Tim Storrier must have been extremely well fed.
A total of 168 artworks, valued at between $560,000 and $820,000, have been retrieved from the walls of the famous eatery and are to be brought to auction on March 21. Nineteen lots are by Olsen, the most expensive being
Improvisation on an Octopus, 1990, with a price guide of $40,000 to $60,000.
But it is Storrierâs
Point to Point (The Midday Blaze Line), 1992 â an oil on canvas â that carries the highest auction hopes.
