The forger between art and writing

The word “art” is here understood in two senses: a) art of the forger of writing to imitate or dissemble; b) art as a place of imitation or dissimulation of a pictorial work, where the material of the graphical gesture lends themselves, like writing, to operations of intentional and admirable alteration. Here we pay attention, in particular, to the "art" of the forger of writing: when the forgery is carried out in a workmanlike manner, then it is perhaps possible to consider what the forger does as a genuine masterpiece of its kind and understand its action as an "artistic" execution in imitating, with the true possibility of deception, a writing or signature of another person. Some elements should not be overlooked as constituent elements of the forger of writing such as: the character predisposition of the forger; the graphic-mimetic exercise; any technical knowledge of the forger, also deriving from the laws of graphology. The second interpretation implies the falseness of art and in art, and the possible connections with the world of graphology, so it is interesting to investigate the common points between these two disciplines (art and graphology), which lead the observer to carry out a sort of interdisciplinary investigation (with a team of experts). For this reason we must ask ourselves how much graphology can dare within the field of art forgery, both directly and indirectly on a technical-investigative level, and how dmuch the graphological laws can, conversely, help a possible art forger to construct fakes.
