Girls of Gold
<p>Hi lovelies!</p> <p>This Sunday we explore the final part (for now) in my series on WWII Art Restitution: The Story of the Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer I. This episode is incredibly important to me because Adele's story, and the story of her niece Maria Altmann, is so indicative of the necessity for cultural property restitution. I wanted to highlight both of these amazing women and the strides each made to maintain their family legacy. I hope you enjoy this journey with me and that learning about Adele and Maria gives you a new perspective on the need for art restitution as a whole. </p> <p>List of available resources to learn more about topics covered in this episode:</p> <ol> <li>https://www.jewishbookcouncil.org/book/lost-lives-lost-art-jewish-collectors-nazi-art-theft-and-the-quest-for-justice</li> <li>https://shop.neuegalerie.org/products/portrait-of-adele-bloch-bauer</li> <li>https://www.nytimes.com/2011/02/09/arts/design/09altmann.html</li> </ol> <p>Follow Us:</p> <p>Instagram—@arttofinish</p> <p>Twitter—@arttofinishpod</p> <p>Intro & Outro Music Produced by Lucid Abyss on Spotify, Apple Music, and Amazon Music.

Ep. #3: Absolute Loss
<p>Happy Sunday, Lovelies!</p> <p>This week we explore the second part in my series about the impact of the art theft carried out by the Nazi's during WWI. We specifically explore the lives of Walter Westfeld and Max Silberberg, and the ways in which the restitution cases surrounding their stolen works mirror the discrimination they experienced during their lives. This episode is very intense emotionally and offers a lot to reflect upon. I hope you enjoy learning about these two incredible men's lives and that you take something away from hearing their stories. In talking about them, we will never truly forget what they experienced. </p> <p><strong>List of available resources to learn more about topics covered in this episode</strong>:</p> <ol> <li>https://www.jewishbookcouncil.org/book/lost-lives-lost-art-jewish-collectors-nazi-art-theft-and-the-quest-for-justice</li> <li>https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/121563/the-rape-of-europa-by-lynn-h-nicholas/</li> </ol> <p>Follow Us:</p> <p>Instagram—@arttofinish</p> <p>Twitter—@arttofinishpod</p> <p>Intro & Outro Music Produced by Lucid Abyss on Spotify, Apple Music, and Amazon Music.
