Art Teacher Sold Fake Art


A former public school art teacher made at least $20,000 by making fake ceramic vases and bowls in his garden studio and passing them off as the work of renowned artists. 52 year-old Jeremy Broadway began selling his fakes via the internet and eventually offered his fakes to world-famous auction houses such as Christies. The fake works were sold to collectors across the U.S. and Europe, but the exact number of sold fakes is still unknown. A stack of fake pots was found by police during a raid on Broadway’s studio. The Guardian has more on this story.
