Authors Philippe Durant and Cécile Delîle bring expertise in writing about art theft and literary fiction, drawing on research and narrative practice to illuminate the fate of lost masterpieces.
This literary walk examines what becomes of artworks that disappear, exploring spectacular thefts and a fictional piece inspired by a stolen Magritte. The discussion investigates motives, the legal and ethical questions surrounding looted works, and how narrative and memory transform the cultural meaning of missing art.
