Document Purpose |
Authentication authority & provenance record declaration |
1. Declaration of Authentication Authority
I, Jesica Ileana Garcia Garcia, known professionally as Ileana Magoda, hereby declare that I am the sole and exclusive creator of all artworks produced under my name. As the living artist, I am the primary and ultimate authority for the authentication of any work attributed to me.
All authentication inquiries, provenance verification requests, and questions regarding works attributed to Ileana Magoda must be directed to me personally at the contact information provided above. No third party — including former agents, dealers, galleries, or collectors — is authorised to authenticate works on my behalf.
2. Authoritative Catalogue
I maintain the authoritative and complete catalogue of all works I have created. This catalogue, held and maintained by me directly, constitutes the primary reference for:
- Confirmation of authenticity for any work attributed to me
- Verification of title, date of creation, medium, and dimensions
- Provenance history including all transfers of ownership known to me
- Exhibition and publication history for each work
- Original sale price and buyer identity where applicable
Any representation of provenance or exhibition history for my works that conflicts with my catalogue records should be considered inaccurate and subject to formal correction.
3. Notice Regarding Former Agency
I wish to place on record that a number of works attributed to me are currently in private possession, having been acquired during the period of an artistic agency relationship. That agency relationship has since been formally terminated.
These works:
- Were never publicly exhibited during or after the agency period
- Have no independent public market reference or auction history
- Were acquired at private prices within the agency relationship
- Are documented in my authoritative provenance records
Any auction house, gallery, dealer, or collector who encounters works attributed to Ileana Magoda is strongly encouraged to contact me directly to verify provenance before proceeding with any transaction. I am available to provide written confirmation of authenticity, original pricing, and full provenance history for any work in my catalogue.
4. Misrepresentation Notice
Any representation of my works that materially misrepresents their provenance, acquisition history, exhibition record, or original pricing — whether in auction listings, gallery descriptions, private sale documentation, or any other context — will be formally challenged.
I reserve the right to:
- Contact auction houses, galleries, and buyers directly with corrected provenance information
- Issue formal written corrections to any published provenance documentation
- Pursue legal remedies where misrepresentation causes material harm to my reputation or market
This notice is issued in good faith and as a standard protective measure consistent with my rights as the living artist and creator of the works in question.
