Abstract

The international controversy over who "owns" antiquities has pitted museums against archaeologists and source countries where ancient artifacts are found. In his book Who Owns Antiquity?, James Cuno argued that antiquities are the cultural property of humankind, not of the countries that lay exclusive claim to them. Now in Whose Culture?, Cuno assembles preeminent museum directors, curators, and scholars to explain for themselves what's at stake in this struggle--and why the museums' critics couldn't be more wrong. Source countries and archaeologists favor tough cultural property laws restricting the export of antiquities, have fought for the return of artifacts from museums worldwide, and claim the acquisition of undocumented antiquities encourages looting of archaeological sites. In Whose Culture?, leading figures from universities and museums in the United States and Britain argue that modern nation-states have at best a dubious connection with the ancient cultures they claim to represent, and that archaeology has been misused by nationalistic identity politics. They explain why exhibition is essential to responsible acquisitions, why our shared art heritage trumps nationalist agendas, why restrictive cultural property laws put antiquities at risk from unstable governments--and more. Defending the principles of art as the legacy of all humankind and museums as instruments of inquiry and tolerance, Whose Culture? brings reasoned argument to an issue that for too long has been distorted by politics and emotionalism. In addition to the editor, the contributors are Kwame Anthony Appiah, Sir John Boardman, Michael F. Brown, Derek Gillman, Neil MacGregor, John Henry Merryman, Philippe de Montebello, David I. Owen, and James C. Y. Watt.

Abstract

La première grande étude sur les oeuvres d'art volées par les nazis en Belgique. Pendant huit ans, le journaliste Geert Sels a fébrilement mené l'enquête sur le gigantesque pillage artistique orchestré par le Troisième Reich. Un travail d'investigation exceptionnel et une plume incisive mettent à nu une vérité troublante. Vaste couverture médiatique attendue : après la publication de ce livre, la Belgique devra enfin s'atteler à une politique de restitution Au cours de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, le Troisième Reich se livra à un pillage artistique sans précédent en Europe.Ce livre apporte un éclairage inédit sur les spoliations commises en Belgique. Les nazis emportèrent des tableaux de Memling, Brueghel et Jordaens, spolièrent des particuliers et dépensèrent des millions de reichsmarks pour acquérir des oeuvres d'art. Pendant huit années d'investigation, Geert Sels a méticuleusement reconstitué le puzzle à l'aide des pièces trouvées dans des archives à Paris, La Haye, Coblence et un peu partout en Belgique.Des collectionneurs, marchands et maisons de vente aux enchères sans scrupule aidèrent les nazis à mettre la main sur d'innombrables oeuvres d'art. Ce livre dévoile les filières utilisées pour faire sortir toutes ces oeuvres du pays. Des tableaux échouèrent plus tard au Louvre, au Tate Moderne, au Getty Museum ou à la Yale Art Gallery. Même la Russie détient encore des oeuvres d'art qui auraient dû retourner en Belgique après la guerre.D'autres oeuvres sont bel et bien revenues, mais se trouvent aujourd'hui dans des musées, sans que l'on ait pris la peine de chercher leurs propriétaires légitimes.
