Made You Look: A True Story About Fake Art is a 2020 documentary by Barry Avrich about a notable art forgery court case involving Knoedler.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7]
It is one of two documentaries on the subject, alongside 2019's Driven to Abstraction.[8] In 2020, Yahoo reported that Melbar Entertainment Group was working on a feature film adaption of the story.[9]
The film was slated to premiere at the 2020 Hot Docs Canadian International Documentary Festival. Following the festival's cancellation due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Canada, it instead premiered on CBC Television as an episode of the special series Hot Docs at Home.[10]
Avrich published a book on the matter in 2025: The Devil Wars Rothko: Inside the Art Scandal that Rocked the World.[11]
