About Driven to Abstraction
Filmmaker Daria Price follows the destruction of New York City's oldest and most respected gallery, Knoedler, as an $80 million scam calls into question some of its most prized holdings. Was the gallery the victim of world class con artists, or simply turning a blind eye? Join us and watch one of the greatest hoaxes of the modern day unfold to global proportions. [84 min; documentary; English]
Before the film, head over to the Eskenazi Museum of Art for a pre-screening gallery talk from 12-12:30pm! Free, registration required.
"Beyond the story's legal complexities, there's a telling tale of greed and gullibility in a world accustomed to operating without much public scrutiny." — Robert Denerstein, Denerstein Unleashed
