Procurorii federali au acuzat trei persoane c\u0103 au orchestrat o schem\u0103 masiv\u0103 de fraud\u0103 cu obiecte de art\u0103 \u0219i suveniruri sportive, care s-a \u00eentins pe parcursul a peste 15 ani. Acuza\u021bii ar fi creat \u0219i v\u00e2ndut opere de art\u0103 \u0219i suveniruri contraf\u0103cute, p\u0103c\u0103lind galerii, case de licita\u021bii \u0219i colec\u021bionari din toat\u0103 \u021bara.<\/p>\n\n
Se presupune c\u0103 liderii schemei sunt Donald Henkel, fratele s\u0103u Mark Henkel \u0219i Raymond Paparella. Procurorii sus\u021bin c\u0103 trio-ul a falsificat sau modificat opere de art\u0103, obiecte de colec\u021bie muzicale, suveniruri de la Hollywood \u0219i articole sportive, prezent\u00e2ndu-le drept autentice.<\/p>\n\n
Pentru a face ca crea\u021biile lor s\u0103 par\u0103 autentice, fra\u021bii Henkel ar fi colaborat cu \u201ev\u00e2nz\u0103tori de paie\u201d care pretindeau c\u0103 de\u021bin artefactele \u0219i furnizau provenien\u021b\u0103 falsificat\u0103. De asemenea, au falsificat documente \u0219i au folosit pixuri \u0440\u0435\u0442\u0440\u043e pentru a face ca semn\u0103turile frauduloase s\u0103 par\u0103 autentice.<\/p>\n\n
Printre presupusele falsuri se num\u0103rau picturi atribuite \u00een mod eronat pictorilor precizioni\u0219ti Ralston Crawford \u0219i George Ault. Precizionismul a fost o mi\u0219care artistic\u0103 cunoscut\u0103 pentru accentul pus pe ma\u0219ini \u0219i arhitectur\u0103, cu o \u201eabordare controlat\u0103 a tehnicii \u0219i formei\u201d.<\/p>\n\n
Acuza\u021bii sunt acuza\u021bi \u0219i de falsificarea unei picturi a artistei din Chicago Gertrude Abercrombie. Se presupune c\u0103 au creat mingi \u0219i b\u00e2te de baseball false, despre care se spune c\u0103 au fost semnate de sportivi legendari precum Lou Gehrig \u0219i Babe Ruth.<\/p>\n\n
Schema a \u00eenceput s\u0103 se destrame c\u00e2nd o victim\u0103 neidentificat\u0103 a cump\u0103rat o presupus\u0103 pictur\u0103 Ault pentru 200.000 de dolari \u0219i a descoperit ulterior neconcordan\u021be \u00een autenticitatea acesteia. Organele de drept au fost alertate, iar anchetatorii au examinat tabloul, g\u0103sind dovezi de \u0219ablonare \u0219i folosirea unui pigment galben care nu era folosit pe scar\u0103 larg\u0103 \u00een 1938, presupusul an al crea\u021biei sale.<\/p>\n\n
Mai mul\u021bi conservatori au examinat pictura suspect\u0103 Ault \u0219i au identificat neconcordan\u021be. Un expert a sugerat c\u0103 a fost \u0219ablonat\u0103, \u00een timp ce altul a detectat utilizarea unui pigment galben anacronic. Testele de laborator pe alte presupuse picturi Ault v\u00e2ndute de Henkel au dezv\u0103luit discrepan\u021be similare.<\/p>\n\n
Actul de acuzare enumer\u0103 11 victime ale schemei de fraud\u0103, inclusiv un colec\u021bionar de suveniruri Walt Disney din California, o cas\u0103 de licita\u021bii din Londra \u0219i galerii \u0219i case de licita\u021bii din New York, Pennsylvania, Texas \u0219i Michigan. O galerie a cheltuit 500.000 de dolari pe tablouri legate de schem\u0103, \u00een timp ce al\u021bi cump\u0103r\u0103tori au pl\u0103tit sute de mii de dolari pentru obiecte false.<\/p>\n\n
Cei trei inculpa\u021bi s-au declarat nevinova\u021bi de acuza\u021biile de fraud\u0103 po\u0219tal\u0103 sau fraud\u0103 electronic\u0103. Mark Henkel se confrunt\u0103 cu o acuza\u021bie suplimentar\u0103 de manipulare a martorilor. Fiecare acuza\u021bie presupune o pedeaps\u0103 poten\u021bial\u0103 de p\u00e2n\u0103 la 20 de ani de \u00eenchisoare federal\u0103.<\/p>\n\n
Presupusa schem\u0103 de fraud\u0103 a zguduit lumea artei \u0219i a ridicat \u00eengrijor\u0103ri cu privire la autenticitatea \u0219i provenien\u021ba operelor de art\u0103. Exper\u021bii avertizeaz\u0103 c\u0103 cump\u0103r\u0103torii ar trebui s\u0103 fie vigilen\u021bi \u0219i s\u0103 solicite sfaturi profesionale \u00eenainte de a face achizi\u021bii semnificative.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
