Lucioâs art collection begins before you set foot in the restaurant. A tangle of pipes by Dave Teer sits high on a wall. Francesco Petroloâs metal eggs nest in a paperbark tree. Salvatore Zofreaâs once-controversial ceramic naked woman gazes from a window. By the front door, Garry Sheadâs mosaic has the writer D.H. Lawrence, his wife and kangaroo picnicking in Italy.
Inside you can easily miss Sidney Nolanâs gold-framed sketch, which started the whole thing. Your eye is drawn along sunshine-yellow walls crowded with artworks and curiosities by many of Australiaâs best artists, from late masters such as John Coburn and Charles Blackman to younger stars Luke Sciberras and Joshua Yeldham.
