"The jury's decision last week restores trust to the Robert Indiana market. We exposed these forgeries and protected the integrity of the artist's legacy."
"The battle has overshadowed Indiana's legacy and cast doubt over the authenticity of some of his late work, with knock-on effects to the artist's market."
Morgan Art Foundation was awarded over $102 million in damages against Michael McKenzie for selling unauthorized Robert Indiana artworks. The jury found McKenzie guilty of exploitation and fraud, raising concerns about the authenticity of Indiana's late works. This legal battle began just before Indiana's death in 2018 and has affected his market value. Morgan's attorney stated that the verdict restores trust in Indiana's market and protects the artist's legacy. The foundation owns rights to Indiana's iconic 'LOVE' sculpture and other works.
