Produktinformasjon

Explore the dark and murky world of art forgery, where up to 50% of all art on the market may be fake. Art Fraud uncovers the intriguing stories of master forgers like Tom Keating, Mark Landis, and Eric Hebborn, alongside lesser-known figures who deceived the art world with their creations. From forgers who were talented artists themselves to those who fooled Nazi leaders or operated as a husband-and-wife team amassing millions, this book delves into the motivations behind these crimes—profit, revenge, or covering up thefts—and the meticulous investigations that exposed them.Provisional table of contents:Introduction Forgery or Copy: The History of ForgeryThe Unwilling Forger: Alceo Dossena (1878–1937)A National Hero: Han van Meegeren (1889–1947)Genuine Fakes: John Myatt (1945–)Crusade Against the Art World: Tom Keating (1917–1984)The Forger of the Century: Wolfgang Beltracchi (1951–)The Faker’s Handbook: Eric Hebborn (1934–1996)“The Art World is Rotten”: Robert DriessenAn Inside Job: Xiao YuanA legal forgery: Mark Landis (1955–)Shaun Greenhalgh (1961–)The Final Word in German Art: Lothar Malskat (1913–1988)The Perfect Foger: Tony Tetro (1950–)F for Fake: Elmyr de Hory (1906–1911)From Garage to Gallery: Pei-shen QianConclusion
