Mission
|
The main task of the Comité Jean-Michel Frank, representing Jean-Michel Frank’s copyrights owners, is to fight forgeries.
All works supposedly created by Jean-Michel Frank can be submitted to the Comité Jean-Michel Frank. After the opening of a corresponding file, the Comité will give its expert advice on the authenticity of the piece of art. This has been the case for works attributed to Frank being auctioned by Christie’s (Paris, London, New York), Sotheby’s (New York, London, Paris) Artcurial (Paris), Phillips (New York, London), Tajan (Paris).. etc. The Comité Jean-Michel Frank is currently proceeding to Jean-Michel Frank’s descriptive catalogue. We thank in advance collectors, institutions or art dealers who would send us all documents related to Jean-Michel Frank works: descriptions, photography, history and origin, and so forth… |
