Counter-419 expert Brian Wizard (www.brianwizard.com) talks to Barcelona-based art critic Jeffrey Swartz about the 419 e-mail scam. See his website for more information on internet and other financial scams.
The exhibition 419, or "THE SPANISH PRISONER", curated by Jeffrey Swartz with a video installation by artist Pep Dardanyà, travelled to Vic, Girona, and Barcelona's Centre d'Art Santa Mònica in 2007 and 2008.

I have met Brian Wizard. He's got a quirky sense of humor, very smart, very intense, a Vietnam veteran totally transformed by his experiences and motivated by what he witnesses in the world.
He makes some fascinating jewelry and sculpture, too :)
