The Chiaroscuro Market: Art Theft and the Art World

In 1999, 24,598 works of art and antiques were stolen in Italy alone. Some of these works were recovered, while others have been distributed through channels they otherwise would not have traveled. Art theft is one of the largest international crimes in the world today but it is little discussed due to fears of revealing vulnerabilities and errors. The Chiaroscuro Market takes a deep look at art theft, its impact on the art world, and how the two feed off each other in a symbiotic relationship.
