Selected works by top Australian artists from the distinguished collection of Domini Morrell will be featured in this Modern & Contemporary Art auction. Domini and Sydney 'Bill' Morrell, a foreign correspondent for the London Daily Express, married and collected Australian art beginning in the late 1940s. The collection was also shaped through their friendship with Sydney-based art dealer Rudy Kormon, who had assisted Mr. Morrell as a local correspondent during the war.
Another highlight of this sale will be David Park's "Untitled," estimated at $150,000-250,000. Park had a short life, but is considered an artist of great influence and is known as one of the founding fathers of the Bay Area Figurative Art Movement.
