Spotlight on the World of Art

Fine Art Registry® has just produced a 48-minute documentary video about Salvador Dali fakes. The video includes interviews with a leading German art crime detective, Ernst Schöller; world-renowned experts on Dali original works, Robert and Nicolas Descharnes; and international Dali graphics authority, Frank Hunter of the Salvador Dali Archives, Ltd. They examine two prints sold by Park West Gallery for thousands of dollars at cruise ship art auctions, and determine that they are fakes. In the video, Frank Hunter and Robert and Nicolas Descharnes also examine and confirm many fake Dali drawings and forged documents coming from the Torino based Albaretto family, the source of most of the Dali prints sold by Park West. Chief Detective Schöller outlines the forensic and expert evidence gathered in his investigation which demonstrated forgery of both prints and of documents presented to prove the authenticity of the prints.

On September 30th, Teri Franks, FAR CEO, will be with Pat Wertheim at the Tri-Division Conference in Mesa, Arizona, to take part in a question-answer session regarding Pat's investigation and findings into forged fingerprints planted on an alleged Jackson Pollock painting. Mr. Wertheim is a world-renowned expert in fingerprint forgery and fabrication detection and FAR members were the first to read his full report.

FAR member and abstract expressionist painter Edward Gilmore has set up the new FAR Registration Station in his collective gallery in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho. Artists are arriving and taking advantage of the opportunity to tag and register their work on the spot!
