Episode 18 - Monet, Monet, Monet – It’s A Rich Man’s World: Pigments Of The Imagination With One Of The World’s Top Art Forgers, David Henty Psycho Schizo Espresso

    • Society & Culture

David Henty was such a brilliant art forger that when he got out of prison – and no, he wasn’t ‘framed’ – people started asking him for authentic David Henty forgeries of Picasso, Dali, and other ‘wall of famers’ to hang in their homes and offices. In this episode he joins Bruce & @TheRealDrKev to explain how an early ‘brush’ with the law as a passport forger propelled him into the world of fine art; how his photographic memory means he only needs to glance at a painting once in order to recreate it; how cover bands and art forgers really aren’t all that different from each other; how forgers are better placed than psychologists to get into the minds of the Old Masters …and how, if Kev & Bruce ever fall on hard times, there’s a Picasso with their name on it in his studio.
