The Story of Elmyr de Hory, the Greatest Art Forger of Our Time; http://bit.ly/2jzKmLt Book descriptionLife really is more amazing than fiction. Maybe…hold that thought.This book is about the life of Elmyr de Hory, who was born into a family of Hungarian aristocrats before landing in a Nazi concentration camp during WWII. He escaped death through a series of mysterious events and then traveled across Europe studying art and hobnobbing with all sorts of interesting people. Elmyr (pronounced el-MEER) was supposedly on the outer periphery of the artists and writers who frequented Gertrude Stein’s salon in Paris. He relates stories such as sitting in a bookshop in Paris and listening to a reading by a fellow named James Joyce. Elmyr recalls “I hadn’t the faintest idea what he was talking about, but I listened with great curiosity.” Indeed brother.Elmyr’s dream was to become a famous painter, but the fates seemed to be against him. Along the way he realized that he had an exceptional talent for mimicking the drawing styles of Picasso and Matisse, and a career in art forgery was born. Over time Elmyr added more artists to his repertoire and may have sold hundreds of pieces throughout the United States, Europe, and South America. On at least one documented occasion an aging painter even insisted that an Elmyr forgery was his own original work. To me one of the most interesting parts of this book was Elmyr’s revelations about how he would seek out old paper and canvases or else artificially age paper and canvas to make the con more convincing.Elmyr’s problem was that he enjoyed living like an aristocrat and thus burned through his forgery money as quickly as he got it. He would occasionally almost get caught and then get scared away from the racket for a period of time. One of these instances involved getting chased down the street by a gallery owner in California, his small frame carrying him as fast as it could while his “monocle flapped in the breeze.” During these times Elmyr would either concentrate on his own art or else do commercial art – which is the name that he would refer to the mundane, flea markety type things that he would sell to furniture stores. At one point he was so broke that he even did some pink poodle paintings, which was a request by a furniture store owner that initially made him harrumph indignantly. I would love to have one of those pink poodle portraits assuming that they aren’t all in a landfill and could genuinely be traced back to Elmyr.There are some great stories throughout this book, but one of my major complaints is that Clifford Irving seems to treat his subject antagonistically. It seems obvious that Irving did not like Elmyr. There was so much great material to be mined concerning the tragedy of Elmyr being unsuccessful as a painter on his own terms but very successful as a forger, but Irving totally blew it. Especially enraging was Irving’s explanation that Elmyr became a homosexual because his father was absent from his life and he did not have a male figure to pattern his sexuality

It seems obvious that Irving did not like Elmyr. There was so much great material to be mined concerning the tragedy of Elmyr being unsuccessful as a painter on his own terms but very successful as a forger, but Irving totally blew it. Especially enraging was Irving’s explanation that Elmyr became a homosexual because his father was absent from his life and he did not have a male figure to pattern his sexuality after. I realize that this book was written in 1969…but good GAWD! This book also serves as a very scathing indictment of the art market during those days, which seems to have been some combination of the games Chicken and Bullshit. Here is where the truth gets hazy. Typically anyone living outside of the law is going to embellish their misdeeds. Elmyr may have come from a more middle class background, did dozens of forgeries instead of hundreds, and may not have been close, personal friends with all of the famous people that he claimed, but he seems to be one of those people who can lie so entertainingly that you find yourself being more charmed than infuriated. If Elmyr did only a fraction of the things that he claimed he still lived a truly fascinating life. Elmyr himself claimed at the time of its release that this book was full of slander and tried to sue Irving for $58 million (I picture him saying that figure like Dr. Evil). No one believed Elmyr at the time because he was the con man/art forger guy, but only a couple of years later Irving found himself in deep trouble when it was discovered that he attempted to completely fabricate a biography of Howard Hughes. This incident is covered in Irving’s book The Hoax which was made into a movie starring Richard Gere a few years back. To further muddy the waters Orson Welles came along and made a documentary film in the early 70’s about the Elmyr/Irving connection called F For Fake. A student of shysterism himself, Welles weaved his own yarns of falsehood into the truthy tapestry presumably because it seemed like fun at the time. Trying to find the real truth behind all of this is like peeling away the layers of an onion that has been deep fried in enigma batter and served with a side of secret sauce…or something.Most likely I responded to this book more enthusiastically than most because this story has intrigued me for quite some time and this long out of print volume was the missing piece of the puzzle for me. To me the de Hory/Irving/Welles story is something that is totally unanswerable yet fun to think about in a way that I find mentally soothing. Basically it serves me like a Buddhist type koan or a “happy place” – something to reflect upon when I’m on the verge of choking the ever-loving shit out of someone at work.Interesting postscript: After completing this book I googled Elmyr de Hory. Yes, I confess that I may have been looking for pink poodles. It turns out that there are certain quirkier segments of the art world that seek out and honor Elmyr forgeries. There was even a traveling collection that exhibited in a few major museums a couple of years back. Serious collectors have been put on notice; however, as it turns out that someone has been doing forgeries of Elmyr’s forgeries and releasing them into the wild. Fake!
