Karel   Appel   Art   Authentication  Procedures  &   Investigations

We specialise in conducting investigations, inquiries and research into the authenticity of works of art internationally.

According to the Karel Appel Foundation;

"The Karel Appel Foundation cannot accept artworks for physical examination."

In this day and age this surely is very wrong indeed and how many times do they get it wrong before that changes ?

Karel Appel & Variety:

 ^ Massively influenced by the work of Willem DeKooning while on a trip to the USA, Karel Appel took a new step into abstractionalism, far beyond his normal approach producing this work of art in 1959.

 For any art authentication investigation specialists or researchers, the problem in identifying authentic works by Karel Appel is the disparity of both quality and approaches between Appel's works from different periods of his life.

 Academic opinion alone is seldom enough in matters of the authentication of art. Signature verification is important too, but not in all of Appel's works as many  his works have been left unsigned. Some are fully signed and more just initialled. Forensics therefore justifiably can have a major part to play in the authentication process.
