Hi all,

I'm re-reading The Didgeridoo Phenomenon. Chap 5, Joshua Forner talks about labels of authenticity and evokes the National Indigenous Arts Advocacy Association (NIAAA).
Though, this association seems to have ceased back in 1998 or 1999 > LINK <

I see loads of Aboriginal Arts imitations around here (France) and feeling helpless...
Even a municipal course in my town to learn how to copy central desert paintings !!!
Been calmly talking about the implications to the organisers but they nearly laughed at my face.
This NIAAA would have been a perfect legal referent to send them to check.
So here's the question : Is there another similar organism ? Or not at all ?

Let me clarify : I'm not seeking some kind of police, but only a legal referent with reasons why they shouldn't be copying and incurred penal risks.
Only information, not repression :D
