Looted Symposium

Annual Meeting of Provenance Researchers

The symposium is part of the Arbeitskreis Provenienzforschung's annual meeting, which brings together almost 550 academics and experts who research the provenance of cultural assets from across the globe, including those from Germany, Austria, Switzerland, the Netherlands, the USA, France, Great Britain, Israel, and Italy. These experts work in public/private institutions, the art trade, the legal system, and academic or freelance research.

Symposium: Looted

The symposium Looted will explore themes relating to the impact of loss and the shifting meaning of art, books and Jewish ritual objects when their context changes in and around the Second World War. These themes are also prominently featured in the simultaneous exhibition (in collaboration with Rijksmuseum) at the Jewish Museum and National Holocaust Museum.
