"Every criminal conspiracy attempts to operate in the shadows. But art trafficking conspiracies in general -- and the Kornfeld-Kallir Conspiracy in particular -- are different from other trafficking conspiracies. And it is this difference that proves that this Kornfeld-Kallir Conspiracy is still ongoing and, therefore, not time-barred from prosecution."

Alfred Flechtheim was one of the greatest #art dealers and art collectors of modern art before the #Nazis came to power.

Unfortunately, he was immediately plundered in 1933. His art dealership was "Aryanized", taken over by Nazi party member Alex Vömel.

Artworks that he is known to have owned are now scattered in #museums around the world.

How complete are the #provenances today?

This video shows a few of the artworks that passed through Flechtheim

When looking at the #provenances of #artworks, it is important to know if a #name belongs to a person who fled Nazi Germany or who was murdered in the Holocaust.
🚩
All too frequently these names are #erased or distorted to conceal the history of the artworks.

Here is a Sparql query that lists 2000+ Jewish emigrants in Wikipedia
(#DBpedia categories that contain the words "Jewish emigrant" links)

Curious to see the exact itinerary Van Gogh's Fifteen Sunflowers took on its way from the persecuted Jewish collector Paul Mendelssohn-Bartholdy to the walls of a museum in Japan.
What patterns will we see? What names? What omissions in the #provenances
