Fake work displayed at an art gallery

New Delhi: Artist S H Raza confirmed on that all the works shown at the Dhoomimal art gallery on Saturday night are fake except one or two.

The Paris based artist was in the capital to open the show at Dhoomimal which displays works of Raza from the 1930s and 40s period.

The whole show has now been pulled down. The 86 year old artist is furious with this blatant act by one of the oldest and most respected galleries in the country.

The problem of fakes is the last thing the Indian art market needs to face in the current slowdown.
