Download or read book Forged written by Jonathon Keats and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2013 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: According to Vasari, the young Michelangelo often borrowed drawings of past masters, which he copied, returning his imitations to the owners and keeping originals. Half a millennium later, Andy Warhol made a game of "forging" the Mona Lisa, questioning the entire concept of originality. Forged explores art forgery from ancient times to the present. In chapters combining lively biography with insightful art criticism, Jonathon Keats profiles individual art forgers and connects their stories to broader themes about the role of forgeries in society. From the Renaissance master Andrea del Sarto who faked a Raphael masterpiece at the request of his Medici patrons, to the Vermeer counterfeiter Han van Meegeren who duped the avaricious Hermann Göring, to the frustrated British artist Eric Hebborn, who began forging to expose the ignorance of experts, art forgers have challenged "legitimate" art in their own time, breaching accepted practices and upsetting the status quo. They have also provocatively confronted many of the present-day cultural anxieties that are major themes in the arts. Keats uncovers what forgeries—and our reactions to them—reveal about changing conceptions of creativity, identity, authorship, integrity, authenticity, success, and how we assign value to works of art. The book concludes by looking at how artists today have appropriated many aspects of forgery through such practices as street-art stenciling and share-and-share-alike licensing, and how these open-source "copyleft" strategies have the potential to make legitimate art meaningful again. Forgery has been much discussed—and decried—as a crime. Forged is the first book to assess great forgeries as high art in their own right.

Book excerpt: "Fakes, Forgeries, and Other Deceptions,' a unique show organized by Samuel Sachs II, acting director of the Minneapolis Institute of Arts, was exhibited in 1973 and was the first such exhibit of fakes and forgeries by a major museum in over 20 years. The catalogue includes over 240 forgeries and originals in styles from ancient art to the present. Some of the forgeries are so outrageously bad that even an untrained eye can detect the original; but more often the fakes are subtle and convincing, and in these instances modern technology, x-ray analysis, spectroscopic examination, and pigment comparison have been necessary to separate the fakes from the originals. The truly education character of both the exhibition and the catalogue lies in Mr. Sachs' learned and lively comparisons between the genuine and the fake, and both are juxtaposed on the same page with accompanying text.
