For more than two decades, thousands of counterfei For more than two decades, thousands of counterfeit works attributed to Canadian Anishinaabe artist Norval Morrisseau circulated through galleries, auctions, and private collections. The resulting forgery scandal has made authenticating Morrisseau’s work increasingly difficult and raised larger questions about protecting artists' legacies and the integrity of the art market. 

In her article, Victoria Cook examines the history of the Morrisseau forgery ring and how emerging technologies could help distinguish genuine works from fakes.

What happens to an artist’s work, archives, and in What happens to an artist’s work, archives, and intellectual property after they’re gone? 

Day 2 of the 2026 CPAL Conference brought together lawyers, appraisers, foundation leaders, and arts professionals to tackle the practical realities of preserving artists’ legacies.
