The F.B.I.’s Art Crime Team is investigating the authenticity of 25 paintings that the Orlando Museum of Art says were created by Basquiat and are on exhibit there, according to a federal subpoena and several people with knowledge about the situation.
The paintings in the “Heroes & Monsters: Jean-Michel Basquiat” exhibition were said by the museum and their owners to have been recovered from a Los Angeles storage unit in 2012.

Is everything from Florida fake?! Fake paintings, fake President.
The pResident is from delaware, which I believe is a state (of confusion, which would explain a lot). And that "artist" was from new york, which is a blue shit hole (and also explains a lot. I'm glad the fbi never got ahold of the pictures I painted in the 2nd grade that my mom hung on the refrigerator, 'cause I was forging that guy's "art" when I was 7 years old.)
