Just a brief note about a couple of lectures coming up in honour of the late James Beck, scourge of the magnifici and indomitable champion against mis-attributions. Thanks to the good people from Artwatch for this. I won't be able to make either of these- I'd appreciate a short report from anybody who does attend.
