“Driven To Abstraction” unravels a mutating tale of self-delusion, greed, and fraud — the $80 million forgery scandal that rocked the art world and brought down Knoedler, New York City's oldest and most venerable gallery.
Was the gallery's esteemed director the victim of a con artist who showed up with an endless treasure trove of previously unseen abstract expressionist masterpieces?
Or did she eventually suspect they were fakes, yet continue to sell them for millions of dollars for fifteen years?
