19th century paintings appeal to buyers, with a landscape by Eugene von Guerard selling for AUD1,860,000 (£760,000) in August 2007. John Brack’s (Australian, 1920-1999) paintings also sell well in Modern and Contemporary Art auctions. In April 2006, Sotheby’s Melbourne sold John Brack’s painting, The Bar, for 3,120,000 AUD (£1,3m). This is one of Brack’s largest oil paintings and is part of his most important early paintings. Together with these traditional fields, aboriginal art is very popular with a growing number of collectors, such as Arthur Papadimitriou. Recently, Wild Potato Dreaming at Muyinga, by Ronnie Tjampitjinpa sold for AUD40,000 (£23,000).
