As an expert in #artprovenance #research, I cannot emphasize enough that #provenance, #scientific and external #expert reports are pivotal. All art trade enterprises need to obey to a strict professional code of ethics but sadly enough, oftentimes neglect this time consuming effort. This #artdiscovery video reveals non-authentic art, something all #artprofessionals should be aware off.
An intriguing tale of recently uncovered fakes located in museums, private collections and exhibitions--Over the course of twenty years, dozens of paintings from a private collection entered the art market as well as the collections of major European and American museums, only for their provenance to be unravelled by science and some of the world's leading experts. Thank you to the BBC's for featuring ArtDiscovery's role in uncovering fakes and helping to bring greater transparency to the art market in their fascinating documentary brilliant documentary "The Zaks Affair: Anatomy of a Fake Collection." This is also such a wonderful tribute to our esteemed late colleague Dr. Jilleen Nadolny. ArtDiscovery' s extensive studies and analyses of many artists' universally recognized works has allowed us to build a significant dataset on artists' characteristic materials and methods. With our unique data library, we have helped many clients successfully attribute their paintings to the artists and to help bring clarity to works that are misattributed or questioned.
