As the global art world confronts its complex history, questions around spoliated art, repatriation, restitution, and the crucial role played by catalogues raisonnés are more urgent than ever. How do we catalogue these objects? What are the legal challenges and risks of doing so? Do Western repatriation questions address the same issues as those faced in Native American or Central Asian art?
Join us online on July 15th for a spotlight event exploring these vital issues through the eyes of museum curators, art historians, and art lawyers.
We’re thrilled to be joined by Frances Fowle, our @icra.art board member and Emeritus Professor @edinburghuniversity who will chair an expert panel featuring:
– Victoria Reed, Senior Curator for provenance at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston @mfaboston
– Nicholas O’Donnell cultural property legal expert and author of “A Tragic Fate: Law and Ethics in the Battle Over Nazi-Looted Art” @sullivan.worcester
– Kate Fitz Gibbon, specialist in Central Asian art law and author of “Native American Art and the Law”
– Don’t miss this chance to hear from thought leaders shaping the ethical future of art stewardship.
Tuesday 15th July 2025, at 4 – 5.30 pm BST
