Description
In 2014 a Bern museum inherited a spectacular collection of some 1,600 artworks, including by masters like Monet, Gauguin and Picasso, left to the Kunstmuseum by Cornelius Gurlitt. Cornelius' father Hildebrand Gurlitt had worked as an art dealer for the Nazis, acquiring works looted from Jewish owners during World War II. A new exhibit, "Taking stock. Gurlitt in Review", explores the museum's journey researching the pieces' original ownership and the challenges of determining its obligations in the face of the tumultuous Gurlitt legacy.
