‘I told Pradhan I was relieved that at least we had stopped sending more people to Guantánamo. “That’s because we started killing suspects with drone strikes,” she explained.’ Erin L. Thompson (@artcrimeprof) in Brussels, from the blog: lrb.co.uk/blog/2024/apri…

‘Since no charges were filed against him, Mansoor still can’t be exactly sure what the US authorities thought he had done. Like so much else about Guantánamo, it’s classified.’ Erin L. Thompson (@artcrimeprof) in Brussels, from the blog: lrb.co.uk/blog/2024/apri…

I appreciated the chance to talk to AJ+ about the situation here and the climate we are facing. Much gratitude to every journalist who actually comes here and shows the world what it’s like.
Columbia University associate professor Joseph Howley says allegations of “antisemitism” are being weaponized against pro-Palestinian student protesters.
The Met acquired the Standing Shiva as a 1988 donation from Annenberg, who bought it from Spink and Son the same year. Spink was a frequent cut-out for the trafficker Douglas Latchford. The Met calls it "the most complete extant gilded-bronze image from Angkor."
The return of the two Thai objects was announced in December along with 14 Khmer objects, but we now have more detail on them. See December thread here: x.com/ChasingAphrodi… The Met bought this 11th Century Kneeling Female Figure from Doris Wiener in 1972.
In announcing the return of 13 looted antiquities from Cambodia @metmuseum SDNY US Attorney Damian Williams has a message to those with looted antiquities: “Come see us before we come see you.”
The @metmuseum is returning two “unrivalled masterpieces” to Thailand –– one purchased from Doris Wiener, the other donated by Walter Annenberg –– and signed a MOU to resolve future disputes "amicably" and "without reference to any third party" theartnewspaper.com/2024/04/26/met…
Sneak peek/first look now online of mine and @HJP_Armstrong’s essay cluster in @postmedieval! “Medieval Forgeries / Forging the Medieval” - you can read our Intro open access below. It was so fun to write & work on this! Full cluster coming c. June 2024. link.springer.com/article/10.105…
Must read.
I wrote about hanging out at a museum of artifacts looted from Congo with my friend Mansoor, the way the colonial theft of culture relates to the taking of men to Guantánamo… and also things you don’t want to know about cheese.
@artcrimeprof Yeah they’ve been found in lots of sites around the Med (on land as well as shipwrecks).
I love teaching at CUNY because my students are majority Black & brown, first gen, they work, lots of parents, folks with immigration issues. That makes their protest EXTRA brave. It also means community should step up and support them. So make it a point to go up there …
