Christian SORRIANO
President, Drouot COTATION PARIS
Expert in Art and Antiques

Art no longer holds any secrets or mysteries for an old pro like me, copyists, imitators and opportunists are quickly unmasked; self-proclaimed “artists” daubing in images of the sea, flowers, bodies or faces that have no soul, no emotion.

Shunning popular trends and cheap visual effects, Charles Carson reveals the many unique facets of his immense poetic skill in each and every one of his paintings. They offer a breath of life, his life, questioning and delighting the minds and trained eyes of connoisseurs.

Charles Carson has staked his claim to artistic posterity, for today one proclaims “it’s a Carson” in the same manner that one refers to the works of immortal artists like Picasso, Matisse, Warhol or Basquiat.

To Mr. Charles CARSON

Dear Mr Carson,
We have the honor of informing you that have been accredited by our members to be an artistic consultant of our organization in accordance with our bylaws.

In this capacity, you will participate with the other experts of the association in the selection of artists whose quoted values merit inclusion in our publication of the Dictionnaire de Cotation des Artistes – Larousse and our websites.

To date, our organization has accredited seven members of the artistic community; you are the first who is not a French citizen.

We are pleased to count you among our artistic consultants in order to present the most accurate Dictionnaire and websites possible, since it is impossible for us to know every artist and in particular those from your country.

Sincerely yours,
Christian SORRIANO
