Italy’s art squad confiscates works from Parma exhibition after consulting Gala-Salvador Dalí Foundation in Catalonia

Italy’s art squad on Tuesday seized 21 artworks from a major exhibition in Parma dedicated to works by Salvador Dalì on suspicion they were falsely attributed to the Spanish surrealist.

The show, entitled Dalì, Between Art and Myth, had only been open for a few days at Palazzo Tarasconi before police confiscated the allegedly forged works, including drawings, tapestries and engravings.
