Antique Folk Art and the Modern Interpretations WEBINAR

Whether you’re a generalist, fine arts or decorative art appraiser, don’t miss this affordable opportunity to increase your knowledge while also obtaining the education credits needed for reaccreditation. Learn first-hand from an expert with more than 20 years of experience in the field of antiques and folk art.

Susan Golashovsky, ASA, is an accredited specialist in American Folk Art, Antique Furniture and General/Residential Contents. She has interviewed artisans and examined their work to determine:

• How they interpret antiques
• What they do to make them appear “aged”
• The values of antiques versus new interpretations

This one-hour webinar, offered for the first time, will allow you to:

• Learn just how closely some artisans interpret antique objects
• See examples of antiques against revival and more recent examples
• Gain an understanding of the interpreter’s work through interviews with artisans currently making these objects
• And more
