Provenance: How a Con Man and a Forger
Rewrote the History of Modern Art, Laney Salisbury and Aly Sujo
Tuesday, July 13, 2010
3:00 to

Free with Membership
or Museum Admission
Provenance is the true-life drama of a strange scandal in the art world — a
decades-long, complex fraud that involved forgery of not only paintings, but
also of their provenance. The damage done is so deep that it may never
be fully repaired.
Pop into our monthly book discussion where we read and
discuss books that relate to artwork in our galleries. Moderated by a
member of
the Museum's staff or a volunteer, we exchange ideas and learning about
books,
art and each other! We meet on the second Tuesday of each month from
3:00 to
5:00 p.m. in the Museum's Library and venture out into the galleries as
well.
Bring your copy of the book. Each book is available for purchase through
the
Museum Shop as well as area bookstores. Suggestions for future books are
most
welcome! For information, contact Nancy Sokolove, Adult Programs Manager
