"The most expensive art seems to be that which has the most thoroughly verified, or at least the most believable story."
What story does one of the most expensive paintings of all time, Jackson Pollock #5, tell?
- abruzzi 7y agoThe story that the OP is referring to is not the story (if any) portrayed by the art, but the story of the work itself. So it is bound up in the story of the artist, the history of a particular work, and the path from the artist's conception to the the most current owner. You might call that provenance, but it's a wider net than just that.
