Dr. Mark Rapoport, of 54 Traditions Gallery in Hanoi, will describe the situation regarding fakes in the current marketplace, using examples he has acquired in Hanoi. Then, he will explain how to determine authenticity in:

• very old objects of bronze and stone
• tribal shamanic paintings and objects
• ceramics (an introduction to a very complex topic)

If time permits, he will give an introduction to ethical issues in collecting both ethnographic and antique material, a major topic in collecting circles.
