Pushkin Museum accused of displaying a fake
|
NOVEMBER 2011 |
EXTRACT:
The allegations come from a Russian collector that considered buying the picture in 2006 for $3m, but first made scientific testing at the Swiss Institute for Art Research.
“the evaluation from the swiss institute indicated that some of the pigments used in this painting were synthetic, produced after 1940” (modi died in 1920...)
Says he is “revolted” to see the work hanging in the Pushkin as a genuine Modigliani.
Christian Parisot, the president of the Modigliani Institute in Rome, denies all of the allegations...

Elizabeth Taylor Modigliani
|
OCTOBER 2011 |
EXTRACT:
A Modigliani or Modigliani look-alike that also graced the walls of her home is not appearing in a Christie's sale because it has not been authenticated.
Marc Porter, chairman of Christie's Americas, will not go so far as to call the painting a fake.
The field of Modigliani attributions is hotly contested, he says, while a new catalogue raisonné is in the work.
But selling Taylor's painting is clearly a risk that Christie's wasn't willing to take.

war criminal triying to sell a ¿Modigliani?
|
JULY 2011 |
EXTRACT:
Officials traced an unexpected link between Hadzic and the more savory world of fine art.
The mystery behind the Modigliani work -- and how it came to feature in the arrest of one of the world’s most wanted men --
is now the primary focus of a team of Serbian investigators and a number of international art experts....
According to a Reuters report from September 2007, “Portrait of a Man” had been unknown to the art world before
it surfaced in the Balkan country.
The report said the painting was owned by an unnamed Serbian collector and quotes Christian Parisot,
the president of the Modigliani Institute, as saying that after a 17-year verification process,
the painting had been deemed authentic.
The portrait could have been stolen but not reported to the Art Loss Register,
it could have been in the possession of its undetermined,
but rightful owner all along, or it could be a fake.
Even after Goran Hadzic’s modern art mystery is solved, there may be more in store.
