We Got This Covered
Italian police just raided a renowned art and culture center in Parma, Italy, and seized 21 pieces from a Salvador Dalí exhibit because they were fakes.
You’d think an exhibition centered around a figure as famous as Dalí would be airtight on authenticity, but apparently not.
According to Fox, the Italian carabinieri art squad followed through with a judge’s warrant and took 21 pieces that were clearly not the real deal.
It sounds like the art world needs to seriously crack down hard on this kind of piracy.
What’s really shocking is that a place known for hosting a “variety of exhibitions” and being a respected “cultural hub” could be showcasing nearly two dozen fake pieces without realizing it.
