Art forgeries are everywhere, in museums, exhibition halls, galleries. Why? Because forgeries are made with the complicity of the artists themselves (sometimes), through the collusion of the deceased artists' families (very often), and with the connivance of experts and gallery owners the world over (all the time). Eric Piedoie Le Tiec was a forger for 30 years and spent 10 years behind bars. In this extraordinary story of one of the main forgers of the last forty years, we discover the hidden world of the art market. Miró, Toulouse-Lautrec, Dufy, Chagall, Arman... and above all César, all the great masters pass through. The undisputed king of forgery created thousands of forgeries—of all the great masters—enriching many art dealers. “Everyone knew what we were doing, in Nice, Copenhagen, New York, Antwerp, Shanghai, but everyone kept quiet because there was a lot of money to be made.” The art racket finally exposed! Eric Piedoie Le Tiec, 63 years old, is today a gallery owner and art dealer in Grasse.

Titres d'impropriété

On pourrait retracer une histoire politique et philosophique des frontières qui séparent ce que je dois de ce qui m'est dû, et ce qui m'appartient de ce à quoi j'appartiens. Ces frontières prennent un relief particulier dans la succession de crises - politique, écologique, économique, sanitaire - qui marquent le paysage culturel, intellectuel et social depuis les années 2000. Désirant examiner la possibilité d'interpréter le contemporain à la lumière d'un paradigme "fiduciaire" où prédominent les notions de crédit et de confiance, Emmanuel Bouju, Loïse Lelevé et Mazarine Pingeot ont proposé à un ensemble de chercheurs et écrivains de réfléchir ensemble aux notions de propriété et d'appropriation, de dette et d'imposture, dans la littérature et les arts contemporains, comme en sociologie, en philosophie ou en économie. Ce livre est le fruit de leur travail commun.

Borgia

Borgia - the Italian-Spanish aristocratic family which reached great power in the period of the Italian Renaissance. The Borgia family gave the Catholic world two dozen cardinals and two Popes (Calixtus III, 1455 - 1458; Alexander VI, 1492 - 1503). Pope Alexander VI considerably expanded borders of the territories controlled by the Vatican and turned it into the centralized state. He was also known as a patron of the arts. Many architectural works in Rome were performed on his initiative. At the same time the name of Borgia became a synonym of dissoluteness, perfidy, and corruption. The elevation of his relatives by any means was a more important task for Alexander VI than the reform of the ...

Where is reality to be found: at the surface of things or behind it? Max Willem, a young art student in Montreal at the end of the 1960s, becomes obsessed with outward appearances - with makeup, costume, and masks of all kinds. For him, outward reality, and in particular that of the opposite sex, is composed of many veils of illusion and artifice through which he must see if he is to feel fully alive. At the same time, Max discovers his exceptional talent for art forgery. Moving to New York, he becomes a tool in the hands of a powerful international ring dealing in forged art, and suffers from the loss of his own artistic integrity. Himself seduced as much a seducer, how can Max escape and redeem his artistic soul? In The Art of Deception, Sergio Kokis has written a novel about mystification and illusion. His exuberant narrative provides a caustic insight into the undersides of art and of love.
