About this book

An IfZ Publication

Alfred Flechtheim was one of the most important art dealers of his era. His galleries included works by Paul Klee and Pablo Picasso. Persecuted by the Nazi regime, Flechtheim fled abroad. The fate of much of his collection remains obscure and a matter of contention to this day. In this study, experts from various disciplines use the example of Flechtheim to address controversial questions about the restitution of plundered art.

  • The destiny of a persecuted influential art dealer
  • Dealing with plundered and looted art after the “Gurlitt collection case”
  • With contributions by international experts in art history, history, and law sciences

Reviews

"Die Publikation trägt dezidiert exemplarischen Charakter und ist doch eine grundlegende und gegenwärtige Bemühungen zusammenfassende Studie. [...] Lesenswerte Falluntersuchungen zu Werken mit Flechtheim-Provenienz runden den Band — der sich neben den inzwischen klassischen Überblicksdarstellungen zum Thema als Standardwerk behaupten wird — in dieser Hinsicht ab und differenzieren das Bild weiter."
Olaf Peters in: Historische Zeitschrift Band 304 / 2017

„Der Band ist ein Pionierstück und verdient schon deswegen die Beachtung durch alle, die damit beschäftigt sind, Fragen der Raubkunst und ihrer Restitution zu klären."
Jürgen Lillteicher in: http://hsozkult.geschichte.hu-berlin.de/rezensionen/2016-1-010
