'A pacy legal thriller, packed with a colourful cast of characters' - Telegraph Long-time art critic Richard Dorment reveals the corruption and lies of the art world and its mystifying authentication process. One winter afternoon in 2003, art critic Richard Dorment answered a telephone call from Joe Simon, an American film producer and art collector, ringing at the suggestion of his neighbour, David Hockney. The Andy Warhol Art Authentication Board had declared the two Warhols in Simon's collection to be fake, and he thought Dorment could help. So began a ten-year saga to prove the authenticity of a series of paintings by one of the most famous American artists of all time. Film stars, art forgers, a murdered Russian oligarch and a Mob lawyer would be swept up in the pursuit. Part detective story, part art history, part memoir, part courtroom drama, Warhol After Warhol is a spellbinding account of the dark connection between money, power and art. 'Sleuth-like in its plotting and with chapter headings which sometimes recall those of a Victorian thriller, Dorment's book is at heart a morality tale, a story of egos, hubris and folly' - Spectator 'Riveting' - Wall Street Journal
Richard Dorment has had a distinguished career as historian, scholar, journalist and exhibition curator. He was the Chief Art Critic at The Daily Telegraph from 1986 until his retirement in 2015. Among his many publications are catalogues of exhibitions that have been seen in London, Paris and Washington DC. A frequent contributor to The New York Review of Books, his work has appeared in the Burlington Magazine, The Times Literary Supplement, and Literary Review. In 2014 he was awarded a CBE for Services to the Arts. Warhol After Warhol is his sixth book.
