Art data system to fight forgery

To fight against fakes in the art market, the Copyright Society of China recently established an authentication center for artworks. The center has recruited eight organizations and companies involved in copyright of artworks, including Beijing-based International Copyright Exchange. It offers certifications for art by collecting data from the works. For example, they might enlarge a distinguishing part of the work and store the data. After collecting a large sample of art data, the center hopes to establish a database that people can use to authenticate artworks.
