Yves Bouvier faces accusations, investigations and charges around the world for alleging selling expensive works of art at inflated prices. The prominence of the artists and significant wealth of his accusers has drawn widespread media interest in the scandal, which media have dubbed "The Bouvier Affair."
Bouvier has engaged Publicis' CNC - Communications & Network Consulting, which is part of MSLGroup and affiliated with Kekst and Company in the US, according to a report. Jacqueline Henard, a managing director out of Berlin and Paris at CNC, leads the work.
