PROGRAMThe subject: art and property stolen from Jews across Europe during the Holocaust, the injustice of these thefts, the significance of inherited Holocaust trauma, and the enactment of laws to assist in the restitution of those items that have been found, is quite riveting. There has been a lot of focus on the topic lately in both fiction and non-fiction, putting this topic front and center.
