On April 21, Leila will be presenting an art crime lecture to members of the Neue Galerie. The New York museum is currently displaying an excellent exhibition entitled “Munch and Expressionism” that has been well received by critics and museum-goers alike. In light of the well-known thefts of Munch works, the sky-high prices for his pieces, and this month’s recovery of one of his lithographs, the Neue Galerie will be offered a lecture on art crime to museum members. Leila, a Junior Council Member, will be discussing art crime and the recovery of stolen works. As the museum is home to Klimt’s “Adele Bloch-Bauer” (the “Woman in Gold”), a work restituted to a family victimized by the Nazis, the Neue Galerie is an ideal place to examine art crime issues. Consider joining the museum to attend this lecture and to learn about other innovative programming (including exhibition previews, cabaret nights, and art lectures) throughout the year.
