I think someone should mount an exhibition of his work. If you enjoyed this, you should search out the doc 'F for Fake' by Orson Welles.

He got 4 years, so I guess he will be out in 2 - his old dad walked away free (too old the jail!)
I think he should carry on his trade - although this time, make it legal.

His old man "wheeled" away free!!! Then got up and walked to make a brew.

The artful codgers, by stjohn on May 15, 2008 23:09:43 GMT 1, I can't help thinking about all those Adam Neate street pieces which appear on the bay with no provenance. Yes, there may be a tiny pic on his site, but it is just so easy for an "artful coodger" to copy I think. To be safe, you can't beat proper prov from established gallery in reality... having said that (not in Neate's case), unless they are primary, I suppose they could be fooled too with secondary pieces.
