Fakes, Forgeries & Discoveries in Art NEW!

Art fakes and forgeries give us the combined satisfaction of a captivating criminal mystery on one hand, and on the other, the profound contemplation of what we expect from art in the first place.

Join us for a colorful exploration of how forgers convince, how they are detected, and why authenticity matters.
