Forgers and Thieves

- The Shadowlands of Art Crime
Af: Noah Charney Engelsk Paperback
Tjek vores konkurrenters priser

Art theft has risen from an occasional event involving the trophies of the wealthy and elite, into a multi-billion-dollar annual criminal industry, run almost entirely by organized crime groups, and a significant funding source for terrorism. It has been listed among the highest-grossing criminal trades worldwide. When ARCA (the Association for Research into Crimes against Art) began, the media and the general public knew very little about art crime. Thanks in part to its efforts, the world is better-informed than ever, but there is still much to surprise and engage, and the stories of art crime never fail to intrigue.

The book is organized into five parts:

  • Fraud and Forgery
  • Law, Policing, and Policy
  • Art, Crime, and Popular Culture
  • Theft and Security, and
  • War, Conflict, and Art.

This book is the latest on art crime by the founder of ARCA, Dr. Noah Charney,widely considered the world’s leading authority on the history of art crime. His work on the subject has been included in his best-selling, Pulitzer-nominated books and articles for major publications, including The Guardian, The Washington Post, The Observer, Salon and many others.
