Smith & Singer

Invitation to Consign Important Australian Art

September 8, 2022

IMPORTANT AUSTRALIAN ART

Consign now to our forthcoming auction of Important Australian Art.

In 2021, Smith & Singer achieved seven of the 10 highest prices for art at auction in Australia that were combined with excellent sold rates and performances against estimates.

Building on the resounding success of our August auction of Important Australian Art, which achieved the highest total for a mixed vendor sale as well as the two highest prices at auction for the year to date, our carefully curated November 2022 auction will include significant examples of historical, modern and contemporary Australian art.

Smith & Singer's November auction is now open for consignments.  A number of exceptional works are already consigned, including Lin Onus' magnificent and confronting Ten Little Niggers (1992) (estimate $400,000–600,000, pictured above), an image that powerfully blends Indigenous and Western references with startling originality. 

To participate in this sale, please contact our highly experienced specialists for a confidential appraisal.
