Colnaghi Announces New Director for New York from Met: Colnaghi announced yesterday that Carlos A. Picón will be retiring from his position as “Curator in Charge of the Department of Greek and Roman Art at The Metropolitan Museum of Art where he has worked for almost 30 years.” Picón will be a director of Colnaghi’s new by-appointment gallery in New York (38 East 70th St.) and expand the dealership to include antiquities and ancient art. …

In Korea, An Art Fair’s Sales Peak: Yonhap reports that “The 16th annual Korean International Art Fair (KIAF), held Sept. 20-24 at the Convention and Exhibition Center (COEX) in southern Seoul, attracted more than 54,000 visitors and posted record sales of 27 billion won (US$ 23.8 million), the Galleries Association of Korea said.

Bersheda and Rybolovlev Leave Monaco: The French journalist Pepita Dupont has a post on her Facebook page about Dmitry Rybolovlev’s accusations against Yves Bouvier involving Picasso’s granddaughter Catherine Hutin-Blay. Contained within that post is the observation that Tetiana Bersheda, Rybolovlev’s lawyer who set off the current scandal by allowing her phone to get into the hands of the court, has left Monaco: ‘she simply did not come on Thursday 21 September to a gala that she organized, preferring to quietly leave for London. On his side, Dmitri Rybolovlev decided to take a vacation in Los Angeles.’
