About Comité Pascin

Faced with the increase in questionable works, and given the risks these works pose to Pascin's artwork, Kim Krohg, rights holder, and Rosemarie Napolitano, an expert on Pascin's work and member of the French Union of Experts, run a committee to defend and promote Pascin's work, known as the Comité Pascin. The Committee's mission is, in particular, to continue the work undertaken by Guy and Tom Krohg to catalogue his art and to compile a reference work. In this context, the Pascin Committee will be required to issue opinions regarding the works presented to it.
