I knew immediately that there was a big error in Tyler Green’s list of errors in Michael Kimmelman’s NY Times piece on the restitution and sale of the Bloch-Bauer Klimts. But I wanted to focus on more substantive issues regarding the disposition of restituted Nazi loot, rather than quibble over the fine points.
But now, Tyler’s done it again, so attention should be paid: The estimable Art Law Blog untangles Tyler’s legal confusion (over whether the Bloch-Bauer heirs could have gotten tax deductions for donating the Klimts) better than I could. Scroll down to the last paragraph in attorney Donn Zaretsky‘s Sept. 19 entry.
