U Veneciji pronađena Renoarova slika sa mitološkim sadržajem, ukradena pre 25 godina.
Citat:A police spokesman told AFP on Wednesday that a resident of Treviso city, north of Venice, had doubts about the origin of the painting after consulting a list of stolen artworks.
...
With the Treviso resident unable to prove his claim that he bought it at a rummage sale, police seized the painting, dating from around 1895, in order to return it promptly to its rightful owners.

U Bervinu, u okolini Čikaga, u skromnoj kući Džona Sistoa, pronađena je neverovatna kolekcija koju čini oko 3 500 vrednih umetničkih dela, knjiga i istorijskih dokumenata. Predmeti su ukradeni, i iz Italije preneti u Ameriku. FBI je otpočeo proučavanje ovih predmeta još 2007, ali je kolekcija tek nedavno predstavljena javnosti.
Citat:In his 33 years in law enforcement, Kushner said he had never seen anything like this.
"There was stuff all over the house in boxes. The most valuable stuff from the Vatican was on the second floor in the attic," Kushner said. "It just goes to show you, you never know what you'll find in a bungalow."
The artifacts and documents date back as far as the 4th Century B.C. and include parchments and manuscripts from Pope Paul III in the 1500s and Pope Paul V in the 1600s. A collection of small statues, known as the Canosa artifacts, is believed to have been taken from an Italian chapel where the objects were offered as devotions to God. Letters from Kings Charles V from 1534 and Ferdinand II from 1847 also were included.
During the two-year probe, FBI officials worked with Italian authorities and determined the origins of the stolen artifacts came from the Bari region of Italy, where John Sisto was born.

Klivlendski muzej vratio je italijanskoj državi četrnaest eksponata za koje je utvrđeno da su nelegalno izneseni iz Italije pre nego što su postali deo muzejske zbirke. Muzej i italijanski predstavnici su u pregovorima oko povratka još nekih eksponata. Italija je ovakvom kulturnom diplomatijom uspela da povrati još neka umetnička dela i iz drugih svetskih muzeja.

U Iraku je pronađena Pikasova slika "La Mujer Desnuda", vredna 10 000 000 dolara, ukradena iz Kuvajtskog nacionalnog muzeja 1990. godine.
Citat:A painting by Pablo Picasso believed to have been stolen during the 1990 Iraqi invasion of Kuwait has been found in the possession of an Iraqi man in Babel, south of Baghdad, the Al Sabah newspaper reported Wednesday.
Police launched a sweep in Yebla, an area in Babel province, after intelligence indicated the painting was being kept by someone in the area, the newspaper said, citing unnamed sources.
Officers arrested the man who had Picasso's "La Mujer Desnuda", which is worth an estimated $10 million and bears the seal of the Kuwaiti National Museum.

Taman postavih ovu vest, i onda pročitam da je Pikasovo autorstvo sporno u ovom slučaju.
Citat:The painting has a tag on the back with several misspellings that says it was sold by "the louvre" to "the museum of kuwait," with the words Louvre and Kuwait in lower case. There are also several stamps bearing the name of the Louvre Museum in Paris.
But an official with the Louvre Museum said it has never had a Picasso in its collection and does not sell its works because they are government property. The official spoke on condition of anonymity according to museum policy.
The London-based Art Loss Registry said it has no record of any paintings missing from the Kuwait National Museum, and no record of this particular painting as missing at all.

Početkom septembra u Los Anđelesu je ukradena kolekcija od jedanaest slika Endija Vorhola, koja je bila u vlasništvu uglednog kolekcionara umetničkih dela, Ričarda Vajsmana. U pitanju su portreti sportista, kao i samog Vajsmana, vredni nekoliko miliona dolara.
Citat:On Sept. 3, a housekeeper for noted art collector Richard L. Weisman walked into the dining room of Weisman's residence and saw that 11 large portraits that had been on the walls the day before were gone, according to Det. Donald Hrycyk, head of the LAPD's art theft detail.
...
The former investment banker comes from a renowned family of collectors. His parents, Frederick and Marcia, were important figures in art circles, amassing a significant collection that centered on works by post-World War II artists. The younger Weisman was friends with Warhol and commissioned the square, brightly colored silk screen paintings of famous athletes in the late 1970s -- a period when Warhol produced hundreds of works for wealthy patrons able to pay the large sums the artist charged.
...
The investigation is particularly complicated because the stolen portraits belong to one of several sets Warhol made of the athletes. Each set has a different color scheme, but they look similar. Weisman is thought to own several of the sets himself, police said. Hrycyk said police are working to identify the other sets in an effort to avoid confusion over which portraits are missing. The FBI and Interpol, which maintain databases of stolen art, will be notified, the detective added.

Krađa umetničkih dela Poloka, Matisa, Rembranta, Van Goga i drugih majstora, vrednih preko 80 miliona dolara prijavljena u Kaliforniji krajem septembra, sumnjiva je lokalnoj policiji. Oštećeni nisu priložili dokumentaciju koja bi potvrdila da su ukradene slike bile u njihovom vlasništvu, a u njihovom domu nema tragova provale.
Citat:The case began about 7 p.m. Sept. 25, Richards said, when Amadio called to report the burglary. He initially said the haul included works by Pollock, van Gogh, Rembrandt, Renoir, Henri Matisse and Joan Miró, and that the total value of the stolen works was $27 million.
...
In the ensuing days, the men told reporters that they had discovered that other treasured paintings were missing and upped the estimated loss to $80 million. Then, on Sept. 29, Richards said, an associate of the men reported finding a typed ransom note stuffed behind some paintings that remained in their home.

Prema svedočenju jednog od članova italijanske mafije, Karavađova slika sa predstavom Rođenja Hrista, koja je 1969. godine ukradena u Palermu, uništena je tokom devete decenije prošlog veka.
Citat:Gaspare Spatuzzo, who was imprisoned in 1997 on multiple counts of murder and turned informer last year, has told magistrates that Filippo Graviano, a Mafia boss for whom he was a hitman, told him in 1999 in prison that the painting was destroyed in the 1980s.
He said that Graviano, who with his brother Giuseppe Graviano ran one of the most powerful Cosa Nostra clans, had told him that the painting, said to be worth at least £20 million, was handed for safe keeping to the Pullara family, part of the Santa Maria di Gesu clan in Palermo, who hid it in a farm outbuilding. "There it was eaten by rats and pigs, and so was burnt," Spatuzza said.

Uoči Nove godine ukradena je veoma vredna slika čiji je autor Edgar Dega. Nestala je iz muzeja u Marseju gde je bila na pozajmici, u noći između 30. i 31. decembra. Policija je privela jednog od muzejskih čuvara, ali je on odmah zatim i pušten, počinioci još uvek nisu otkriveni.
Citat:PARIS - Police say a painting by Impressionist Edgar Degas worth euro800,000 ($1.15 million) has been stolen from an exhibit in Marseille.
A police official says the painting, "Les Choristes," (or "The Chorus Singers"), was stolen overnight from the Cantini Museum. The official was not authorized to be publicly named because of police policy.
The French national museum authority said the painting — a small pastel painted in 1876-77 — is worth euro800,000. It belongs to the famed Musee d'Orsay in Paris, known for its impressionist works.

Jedan predmet je pronađen, mala skulptura-igračka gitare, koju je Pablo Pikaso namenio svojoj ćerci, pronađena je u kutiji za cipele.
Citat:Police say they have recovered from a Roman businessman Picasso's "Little Guitar" toy sculpture made for the artist's daughter Paloma.
Carabinieri police say Picasso had given the toy to his friend, Italian artist Giuseppe Vittorio Parisi. Parisi lent it to the businessman two years ago to build a glass showcase for it to be exhibited at the civic museum on Lake Maggiore.
But police say the unnamed businessman never returned the work, keeping it in a shoe box in his home in Pomezia.
