This book brings together empirical and theoretical case-study
research on art and heritage crime. Drawn from a diverse group of
researchers and professionals, the work presented explores
contemporary conceptualisations of art crime within broader
contexts. In this volume, we see 'art' in its usual forms for art
crime scholarship: in paintings and antiquities. However, we also
see art in fossils and in violins, chairs and jewellery, holes in
the ground and even in the institutions meant to protect any, or
all, of the above. And where there is art, there is crime. Chapters
in this volume, alternatively, zoom in on specific objects, on
specific locations, and on specific institutions, considering how
each interact with the various conceptions of crime that exist in
those contexts. This volume challenges the boundaries of what we
understand as "art and heritage crimes" and displays that both art,
and criminality related to art, is creative and unpredictable.
