Christy's"There is a huge difference between fake and bootleg. Fake is a product made by Gucci that another party made that is not authorized and not real. Bootleg is almost like fan art. Bootleg is somebody who took the idea of Gucci and the concepts of the name and the look and made their own product."

Eric Doeringer and A Hug From The Art World present Christy's - a Bootleg of the May 15, 2019 Christie's Post-War and Contemporary Art Evening Sale. This catalog is Doeringer's appropriation of the catalog from the Christie's sale, with photographs of his Bootleg paintings replacing the original works.

The New York Times reported that the chairman of post-war and contemporary art at ChristieÕs stated, ÒWeÕre flattered. Whether it is art or music, a good bootleg version reminds you of an experience that you enjoyed and want to hold onto. We hope people will come and experience the original artworks at ChristieÕs as well as the bootleg versions in ChelseaÉ I may do some shopping myself.Ó
