A GATHERING OF EXPERTS: “UNFINISHED BUSINESS; CONTINUING RESTITUTION OF ART WORKS LOOTED DURING THE HOLOCAUST; PRIVATE LITIGATION, PUBLIC RESPONSES”
October 23rd, 2009 | 4:05 pm
Today there is a great seminar of experts and interested parties discussing how we can make continued improvements to our efforts to complete the mission of the Monuments Men as to objects stolen during World War II as well as the steps needed for the United States to do a better job in the protection of cultural property during future conflict. I spoke at this conference last year and was honored to be asked to speak again. Now, as then, scholars, students, and other interested parties have come together with a common commitment to protect and preserve the cultural heritage belonging to all of us.
I’ll have more to add about this critically important event in the days ahead.
