\"\"<\/a>Nicole Miller \u2026 organised the display of works by David Bryce and Andr\u00e9 Minaux<\/p>\n

July 14, 2025<\/p>\n

Two of the most unusual exhibitions \u2013 and probably the most valuable \u2013 seen in the South Burnett for some time are gracing the walls of the Wondai Regional Art Gallery this month.<\/p>\n

A total of 88 works by the late William David Bryce, the South Burnett\u2019s best-known artist of recent decades, are on display and available to buy.<\/p>\n

Also on display are works by French printmaker, the late Andr\u00e9 Minaux, including limited edition lithographs and an original gouache painting (with a price tag to match!).<\/p>\n

This is the first time the Bryce collection has been offered for sale.<\/p>\n

Nicole Miller, from Kingaroy, organised the exhibition on behalf of her family members, approaching Sotherby\u2019s experts to get estimated sales prices for the works.<\/p>\n

David was a family friend of Nicole\u2019s grandmother.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs David never married or had children he left his estate to my grandmother,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey were friends for over 40 years. He taught my mother art in the late \u201960s\/early \u201970s. I also learnt art with him during the 1990s.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Bryce works on display are only a small part of the family\u2019s collection.<\/p>\n

The Minaux pieces have been collected over the years by Nicole. She just started with one print to hang in her kitchen but then fell in love with his works.<\/p>\n

Gallery patron Cr Ros Heit told the opening night crowd that it was 25 years since David Bryce had died.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is a privilege for our little gallery to offer this large body of work for sale under one roof,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
