New Article Series on Marketing and Selling Art

FAR in Art&Antiques Magazine – Again!
Not one but two Fine Art Registry™ related articles appeared in the April 2007 issue of Art&Antiques, as well as a reference to FAR as a resource in protecting your art from theft.

The first, "Thumbs Down in Pollock Fingerprint Analysis", concerns fingerprint examiner Thomas Hanley's findings from his investigation in art restorer Peter Paul Biro's forensic "authentication" of the painting bought by Teri Horton in Southern California, which has since attained notoriety as a possible Pollock.

The second article in Art&Antiques "Antiques Worth $1 Million Stolen in West Palm Beach", is a report on the $1 million furniture and antiques theft from antique dealers Andrew and Kelly Vogel, which was also reported on in depth on the FAR website here.

(The Vogels called FAR very recently and reported that their stolen goods had been recovered, some of it intact, some of it damaged or destroyed. More on this soon. Ed.)
