Titled as "Abstract," this painting is found to be deceptively put under the name of late artist Ta Ty at the exhibition "Paintings returned from the Europe." Speaking to Thanh Nien, Chung, the collector, said all the paintings' authenticity was certified by Hubert and that he trusts the French expert. At least one living artist, Thanh Chuong, has claimed one of the two paintings as his. Hubert also insisted on the paintings’ authenticity in an interview with Thanh Nien. The "Paintings returned from the Europe" exhibition opened on July 10 and soon faced forgery accusations from local artists and experts.
