Ex-cabbie
claims
he
hit
art
jackpot
VANCOUVER
(CP)-
Diederik
Wolsak,
a
former
driver
and
companion
of
Law-ren
Harris
a
member
of
Canada's
famous
Group
of
Seven
believes
he
has
purchased
two
of
the
painter's
authentic
works
for
$2.
Wolsak,
who
purchased
the
paintings
at
a
local
swap
meet,
said
the
paintings
might
be
worth
$7,000-$10,000
apiece.
Local
art
experts
say
they
are
worth
about
$5,000
each.
Harris
moved
here
from
Toronto
in
1942
and
died
in
1970.
Peggy
Knox,
his
daughter,
said
she
believes
the
unsigned
asbstracts,
one
70
by
80
centimetres,
the
other
75
by
80
cm.
dating
from
1955-57
are
authentic
"Just
from
looking
at
them
I
am
pretty
certain
that
they
are
his,"
she
said.
Ms.
Knox
said
the
lack
of
a
signature
is
not
uncommon
"because
my
father
signed
very
few
of
his
paintings,
especially
after
1920."
Doreen
Walker,
a
senior
instructor
in
the
University
of
British
Columbia
department
of
fine
arts,
said
she
was
shocked
when
she
first
saw
the
paintings,
"because
if
they
weren't
Harris',
they
were
incredibly
close
to
his
work."
"They
look
a
lot
like
preliminary
drawings
he
undoubtedly
was
using
them
to
work
through
some
formal
problems,"
she
said.
"Of
course,
everyone's
a
bit
hesitant
to
stick
their
neck
out.
It's
up
to
someone
in
a
laboratory
to
give
the
definitive
word."
Dennis
Reid,
curator
of
postconfederation
art
at
the
National
Gallery
in
Ottawa,
said,
however,
that
studying
the
paintings
in
a
laboratory
will
not
prove
anything.
"What
one
has
to
do
is
try
to
compare
them
with
other
Harris'
it's
what's
called
connoisseurship
and
there's
nothing
scientific
about
it
at
all,"
he
said.
Wendy
Wolsak
said
when
her
husband
saw
the
paintings
at
the
swap
meet,
he
was
convinced
immediately
that
they
were
originals.
"He'd
seen
those
frames
so
many
times,
then
when
he
noticed
the
grid
and
Harris
used
a
grid
(a
squared-of
f
canvas)
he
knew,"
she
said.
Wolsak
sa
id
he
plans
to
hang
the
paintings
in
a
gallery
until
at
least
1980,
when
an
exhibition
of
Harris'
work
is
scheduled.
"By
then,
I've
been
told,
they
may
sell
for
as
much
as
$20,000
each,"
he
said.
