SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Feb 1 – Annamarie
Trombetta, an artist, sued
Estate Auctions in 2018 for
putting on sale a painting
falsely attributed to
her.
On
February 1, U.S. District
Court for the Southern
District of New York
Magistrate Judge Sarah L. Cave
held a proceeding. Inner City
Press covered it.
The
painting, entitled "Man with a
Red Umbrella," was dated 1972,
which Trombetta was only nine
year old and not painting.
She asserts that
this "low bid priced painting
falsely attributed to my name
greatly devalues my
work."
Judge Cave
ordered Trombetta to make a
demand on the defendants, with
an eye toward settling the
long-running case. (Earlier on
February 1, Judge Cave told a
caller in to another
proceeding, Range, Jr. v.
OFA Partners LLC et al,
18-cv-05149, that You cannot
be on here, it is a settlement
conference.)
Ms.
Trombetta said the emotional
harm of this false attribution
of the painting made it
difficult for to quickly
assign a price or demand.
This case is
Trombetta v. Novocin et al.,
18-cv-993 (Abrams /
Cave)
