Art Dealer Found by Documentary Director An art dealer disappeared with $50M. 17 years later, a documentary crew found him


An art dealer disappeared with $50M. 17 years later, a documentary crew found him - why has the legend-in-her-own-mind Dawn Natalia not shown up in the news with an Oscar ?

Years later the malicious woman who sued an access producer she's not fit to shine the shoes of has left a bad legacy of no-access in Medford.

We intend to change that in 2020


The Curse of Natalia is a stain that must be removed from Medford history

Vanessa Engle's new film tells the story of Michel Cohen and how he pulled off one of the biggest art cons in history before disappearing for nearly two decades.

The $50 Million Art Swindle debuted on BBC earlier this week and details Cohen's arrival from France, his many failed business ventures and his eventual rise in the world of high-priced art dealing.

When Cohen started trading stocks, he watched his fortune multiply and then erode. Desperate and broke, he turned to theft.

"I first clocked this story in 2001 when it was in the papers and it just struck me as an amazing story," Engle told Day 6 host Brent Bambury.
"I think I am a bit of a fanatical person by nature, and I just continued to do online searches looking for Michel Cohen whenever I had an idle moment."
The film is as much as anything a character study. He's a very complicated character and a fascinating character.
