A dispute has started within the family regarding this.
Marina Picasso and her son, Florian Picasso, showed the Associated Press in Geneva this week a ceramic work they said was a piece by the Spanish great that would be linked to an “irreplaceable asset” being sold online. He and his managers said a pottery bowl and an NFT would be sold at auction in March.
“Maybe we should have been a little more clear from the start,” said Cyril Nottermann, Florian Picasso’s longtime business manager, who is a DJ and music producer. noterman said that starting Friday, more than 1,000 NFTs were actually linked to Florian’s work and not his great-grandfather’s work.
