PROTECT OUR ARTISTS BY TAKING ACTION AGAINST COUNTERFEITING

On World Anti-Counterfeiting Day, we would like to draw your attention to the risks associated with buying art online or from private individuals.

In 2024, 22 million counterfeit items were seized, a record high. France is now the second most affected country after the United States. With the rise of online commerce, fraudulent offerings have intensified: illegal sales sites are becoming increasingly sophisticated and difficult to identify.

Some of our artists are directly affected by this scourge. To guarantee the authenticity of your purchases, we recommend that you use recognised galleries and certified professionals, whether for purchase or resale.
Together, let’s support artists by refusing to buy counterfeit works and reporting abuse! If you wish to report any issues concerning our artists, please write to us at: contact@galeries-bartoux.com
