Description
Alfred Flechtheim (1878-1937) war einer der bedeutendsten Kunsthändler seiner Zeit. Werke von Paul Klee oder Pablo Picasso hingen in seinen Galerien. 1933 musste er als verfolgter Jude aus Deutschland fliehen. Was mit seinen Bildern geschah, ist bis heute in vielen Fällen ungeklärt und umstritten. Der Sammelband widmet sich dem Galeristen und seinen Bildern. Internationale Expertinnen und Experten aus Provenienzforschung und Zeitgeschichte erörtern exemplarisch in interdisziplinärer Perspektive aktuelle Fragen nach der Restitution von Raubkunst.
Description
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.
