Events Online Film: "Made You Look: The True Story About Fake Art"
Date
The film explores the case of the largest art fraud in American history that brought down an esteemed gallery and left a respected art dealer with egg on her face. The central figure of the $80-million caper is Ann Freedman, a former dealer at the late Knoedler Gallery of New York. Freedman and various implicated parties explain a decade-long con in which Glafira Rosales, a petty crook from Long Island, sold Knoedler a series of masterful forgeries by Chinese artist Pei-Shen Quan. Freedman marvels how Rosales trucked out one al-legedly lost masterwork after another from contemporary artists like Jackson Pollock and Mark Rothko. Her voice still sparkles with true awe at the paintings.
