#Repost @makemefamousmovie ・・・ Art Forgery of Richard Hambleton art - BUSTED - BREAKING NEWS from the Justice Dept 👉Escondido Resident Admits to Selling Over $1 Million of Forged Art SAN DIEGO – Jason Harrington pleaded guilty today and admitted that he sold $1.1 million of forged art. Harrington sold artwork purportedly created by Richard Hambleton – a New York City artist who rose to fame in the 1980s and whose paintings routinely sell for hundreds of thousands of dollars. In his plea agreement, Harrington admitted selling forged art to at least fifteen galleries and individuals between 2018 and 2020. The forged art included paintings of a black-silhouetted figure known as the Shadowman, which was a recurring motif in Hambleton’s works. To make the forged art appear authentic, Harrington lied to prospective buyers regarding the provenance of the art. To support these false statements, Harrington provided prospective buyers with a fake letter purportedly signed by the individual who obtained the art and, on one occasion, instructed an individual to speak with a prospective buyer and falsely claim to have obtained the art from Hambleton. According to court records, Harrington altered images, using publicly available photographs of Hambleton, to make it appear that the individual who purportedly obtained the art knew Hambleton. Harrington also admitted to attempting to sell at least one forged painting purporting to be from the noted portraitist Barkley Hendricks. According to court records, Harrington falsely claimed to the owner of an art gallery that he inherited the painting from his uncle. The art gallery, however, refused to purchase the painting after Hendricks’ widow viewed the painting and determined it was a forgery. 📸photo by @lincoln.clarkes tribute 🛑 by #thesigntologist #richardhambleton #breakingnews #shadowman #makemefamousmovie #artdocumentary #documentary #edwardbrezinski #arthistory #artoftheday #art #80sny #80s #newyorkcity #newyorkcityart #newyorkcityartist #80saesthetic #eastvillage #vintagenyc #lesgalleries https://www.instagram.com/p/CSajTv7lkw_/?utm_medium=tumblr
