Howdy!
Let’s hope that it never gets to this here. On one hand I’m eternally frustrated with the values of Canadian Art (old and new). On the flip side, I’m kind of glad that no one (to my knowledge) has resorted to a court of law to prove (or disprove) the authenticity of an artwork. Last week the New York Times reported on a messy and sordid case whether works attributed to “Jackson Pollock, Willem de Kooning and Mark Rothko — are clearly originals or obvious fakes.”
