The art world is full of tales about fakes and forgeries. Dennis Calabi, owner of Calabi Gallery in Santa Rosa, is a connoisseur of early California paintings and has a few stories to share involving luminary artists Thomas Hill and William Keith. Dennis is also an accomplished conservator. In fact, he did a conservation treatment and cleaning of Grace Hudson's painting, The Wi-ly, one of the stellar works of art in our current exhibition, The Art of Collecting. Learn how to avoid easy pitfalls when purchasing art, and also how a skilled conservator can give a painting new life.
