Learn About Art, Forgeries and Forgers
Not every fake work of art is a forgery, and not every genuine work of art is authentic. Sometimes it is false attributions, misinterpretations, or carelessness that assign false characteristics to a work of art. The lecture will address fundamental questions about authentication, attribution, and art forgery. Insights will be given into the world of forgers and the scientists and art experts, who try to uncover them.Â
About the speaker:
Dr. Martin Pracher is a German art expert witness and lecturer for technical art history and preventive conservation at the University of Würzburg. 35 years ago, he was an exchange student in Rochester for 1 year. This is the 60th anniversary of the sister cities Würzburg / Rochester.
