Branching out from his supporting role on Phillip Mould’s Fake or Fortune, Bendor Grosvenor will be the co-lead, with art historian Jacky Klein, of a new show called “Art Detectives” to be broadcast on BBC4:
The series follows historian and art dealer Dr. Bendor Grosvenor (pictured, right) and art historian Jacky Klein (left) as they scour museums, great houses and galleries across the country in search of lost and hidden public paintings. A specialist conservation team will use cutting edge technology to restore found pieces, while providing clues for the presenters to identify the works of art before they’re valued and re-hung in museums for the public to enjoy.
