Museum Accepts Owning Warhol Fakes

The Los Angeles Times reported today that the Moderna Museet in Stockholm has officially stated that six Brillo boxes in their Andy Warhol collection are fakes made in 1990, three years after Warhol’s death. The Museum had investigated the authenticity of its six wooden Brillo boxes, donated by its former head, Pontus Hulten, in 1995, after a Swedish newspaper claimed they were all copies.
