Art possibly stolen during Holocaust seized from Art Institute of Chicago
Authorities in New York have seized a pricey drawing from the Art Institute of Chicago, along with two other artworks in Pittsburgh and Ohio, because prosecutors believe they were stolen from Jewish families by Nazis.
The three works and several others from the collection, which Grünbaum began assembling in the 1920s, are already the subject of civil litigation on behalf of his heirs. They believe the entertainer was forced to cede ownership of his artworks under duress. Grünbaum was arrested and sent to Dachau in 1938. He gave his final performance for fellow inmates on New Year's Eve 1940 while gravely ill, then died on Jan. 14, 1941.
The Carnegie Museum said it was committed to"acting in accordance with ethical, legal, and professional requirements and norms" and would cooperate with the authorities.
