A Talk at the Monterey Museum of Art,
February 20, 2019 | 5 – 7 pm 

Carmel art advisor Lily Yu will present a talk on “How to Spot a Fake” at the Monterey Museum of Art on Thursday February 20  from 5-7pm.  Lily, who is also a certified art appraiser will discuss current examples, including some high profile cases of art that turned out to be fake, and some assumed fakes that turned out to be the genuine article. Using real life examples of collectible art, Lily will demonstrate the steps she takes to determine whether an artwork is genuine or a copy, and participants will leave with a better understanding of what should raise red flags when considering purchasing art, and when to call in an expert to evaluate the legitimacy of art that is owned, donated or inherited. Wine will be served and after the talk,  the museum will remain open so art sleuths can practice their new found skills.
