De Sole V. Knoedler Gallery - a Field of Red Flags
LONDON| NEW YORK | SAN FRANCISCO| WASHINGTON De Sole v. Knoedler Gallery - A Field of Red Flags Last month, collectors Domenico and Eleanore De Sole settled their claims against the now defunct Knoedler Gallery and its former president and director, Ann Freedman. The settlement, though hardly surprising, left many questions unanswered and raised other interesting ones. Unfortunately, we will never know whether, in the eyes of a jury, the De Soles’ reliance on the representations made by Knoedler and Freedman was reasonably justified, and whether Knoedler and Freedman intended to defraud. The Knoedler Gallery, founded in 1846 and considered a New York institution, was one of the most venerable art galleries in the United States. It survived three wars and several recessions. Knoedler abruptly closed its doors in 2011, succumbing to a series of lawsuits. The demise of Knoedler arguably began in or around 1994, when an obscure Long Island art dealer, Glafira Rosales, met with Freedman, Knoedler’s sole manager and director at the time. Rosales told Freedman that she had a Mexican client who wanted to sell a collection of Abstract Expressionist artworks, but wanted to do so anonymously. Over the next fifteen years, Rosales provided Knoedler with dozens of previously unknown alleged “masterworks” by well-known Abstract Expressionist artists, and Knoedler sold these paintings to its customers. The paintings turned out to be forgeries. In September 2013, Rosales pled guilty to conspiracy to sell the fake artworks, money laundering, and several tax crimes related to the fake art scheme in a criminal action brought against her. In fact, the Rosales paintings were created by a Chinese painter residing in Queens, New York, who received a nominal sum for his creations. -
The Museum of Modern Art
The Museum of Modern Art For Immediate Release May 1995 ARTIST'S CHOICE: ELIZABETH MURRAY June 20 - August 22, 1995 An exhibition conceived and installed by American artist Elizabeth Murray is the fifth in The Museum of Modern Art's series of ARTIST'S CHOICE exhibitions. On view from June 20 to August 22, 1995, ARTIST'S CHOICE: ELIZABETH MURRAY presents more than 100 drawings, paintings, prints, and sculptures by approximately seventy women artists. The exhibition involves works created between 1914 and 1973, including those ranging from early modernists Frida Kahlo and Liubov Popova to contemporary artists Nancy Graves and Dorothea Rockburne. Murray focuses particular attention on artists who made their reputations during the 1950s and 1960s, such as Lee Bontecou, Agnes Martin, Joan Mitchell, when Murray herself was studying and forming her style. This exhibition and the accompanying video and panel discussion are made possible by a generous grant from The Charles A. Dana Foundation. Organized in collaboration with Kirk Varnedoe, Chief Curator, Department of Painting and Sculpture, the ARTIST'S CHOICE series invites artists to create an exhibition from the Museum's collection according to a personally chosen theme or principle. "I wanted, for myself, to explore what being a woman in the art world has meant," Murray writes in the exhibition brochure. "I wanted to weave together a sense of the genuine and profound contribution women's work has made to the art of our time." - more - 11 West 53 Street, New York, N.Y. 10019-5498 Tel: 212-708-9400 Fax: 212-708-9889 2 Installed in the Museum's third-floor contemporary painting and sculpture galleries, the exhibition is arranged in thematic groupings. -

History of Encaustic
THE HISTORY OF ENCAUSTIC Wax is an excellent preservative of materials. The Greeks applied coatings of wax and pitch to weatherproof their ships. Pigmenting the wax gave rise to the decorating of warships and merchant ships. The use of a rudimentary encaustic was an established practice in the Classical Period (500-323 BC). It is possible that at about that time the crude paint applied with tar brushes to the ships was refined for the art of painting on panels. ENCAUSTIC AND TEMPERA Encaustic on panels rivaled that of tempera in what are the earliest known portable easel paintings. Tempera was a faster, cheaper process. Encaustic was a slow involved technique, but the paint could be built up in relief, and the wax gave a rich optical effect to the pigment. These characteristics made the finished work startlingly lifelike. Moreover, encaustic had far greater durability than tempera, which was vulnerable to moisture. Pliny refers to encaustic paintings several hundred years old in the possession of Roman aristocrats of his own time. ENCAUSTIC IN SCULPTURE We know that the white marble we see today in the monuments of Greek antiquity was once colored, either boldly or delicately and that wax was used to both preserve and enhance that marble (see "Polychromy in Greek Sculpture" below). The literary evidence of how this was done is scant. The figures on the Alexander Sarcophagus in the archeological Museum of Istanbul are an example of such coloration, although it is not clear how intense the original color was. The methods used to color the marble probably varied. -
The Making of David Mccosh Early Paintings, Drawings, and Prints

Charcoal and graphite on paper, 11 x 8 ½ inches David John McCosh Memorial Collection The Prodigal Son, 1927 Oil on canvas, 36 1/2 x 40 3/4 inches Cedar Rapids Museum of Art, Museum purchase. 28.1 8 The makIng of davId mcCosh danielle m. knapp In 1977, David and Anne McCosh participated in an oral history interview conducted by family friend Phil Gilmore.1 During the course of the interview the couple reminisced about the earliest years of their careers and the circumstances that had brought them to Eugene, Oregon, in 1934. As the three discussed the challenges of assessing one’s own oeuvre, Anne emphatically declared that “a real retrospective will show the first things you ever exhibited.” In David’s case, these “first things” were oil paintings, watercolors, and lithographs created during his student years at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago (AIC) and as a young struggling artist in the Midwest and New York and at several artist colonies and residencies. This exhibition, The Making of David McCosh: Early Paintings, Drawings, and Prints, highlights those years of his life with dual purpose: to thoughtfully examine his body of work from the 1920s and early ’30s and to provide those familiar with his celebrated later work a more complete understanding of the entire arc of this extraordinary artist’s career. McCosh’s output has always defied traditional categorization within art historical styles. During his life he found strict allegiance to stylistic perimeters to be, at best, distracting and, at worse, repressive, though his own work certainly reflected elements of the artistic communities through which he moved. -

Deterring Art Fraud
UCLA UCLA Entertainment Law Review Title Let Them Authenticate: Deterring Art Fraud Permalink https://escholarship.org/uc/item/41d817dg Journal UCLA Entertainment Law Review, 24(1) ISSN 1073-2896 Author Bonner, Justine Mitsuko Publication Date 2017 DOI 10.5070/LR8241035524 Peer reviewed eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California LET THEM AUTHENTICATE: DETERRING ART FRAUD Justine Mitsuko Bonner* Abstract Forged art is corrupting the art market, a market that has grown more brazenly dishonest as the value of artwork has skyrocketed. Fake art not only harms the financial interests of investors, but it also damages the integrity of the art market, ultimately undermining the historical-cultural record. Yet art fraud is flourishing because art experts are increasingly unwilling to express authentication opinions due to the specter of expensive litigation. This paper examines the historical background of art fraud and the legal protection need- ed for art experts if rampant art fraud is to be deterred.

Exploring the Knoedler Gallery’s Premium Picture Market, 1872-1934 Robert Jensen, University of Kentucky Abstract This paper was first delivered at the conference Art Dealers, America and the International Art Market, 1880-1930 sponsored by the Getty Research Institute, The Getty, Los Angeles, CA, January 2018. The essay is based on research conducted at the GRI Special Collections’s archival holdings of materials belonging to the New York art gallery M. Knoedler & Co. The paper outlines a quantitative methodology for approaching the Getty’s data set, which was created through the transcription of Knoedler’s 11 painting stock books covering the gallery’s operations from 1872 to its closing in 1970.
