Greece, Italy, Egypt, India, Cambodia and elsewhere
Ongoing investigations continue to show that the New York art museum is housing pieces it doesn’t have the rights
ICIJ
Under then-Director Thomas Hoving, the Met embarked on a vigorous buying spree in an effort to build out an antiquities collection that could match rivals in London and Paris.
Over the following decades, the institution filled its halls and warehouses with treasures from Greece, Italy, Egypt, India, Cambodia and elsewhere.
And seemingly more than it should. Today, governments, law enforcement officials and researchers have linked a mounting number of the Met’s relics to looters and traffickers. While the Met has voluntarily returned some items, prosecutors have seized others.
CHANGING A TRADITION IN NEPAL
“Nepal has a living religion where these idols are actively worshipped in temples. People pray to them and take them out during festivals for ceremonies,” said Roshan Mishra, a volunteer with the Nepal Heritage Recovery Campaign, a coalition formed to restore the country’s lost heritage.“When relics are stolen, those festivals stop. Each stolen statue erodes our culture. Our traditions fade and are eventually forgotten.”
In the antiquities trade, the Met’s reputation has begun to erode. Over the last two years, the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists and its media partners have reported on the Met’s acquisition practices — often in relation to a trove of items obtained from Cambodia in an era when that country’s cultural heritage was sold off wholesale to the highest bidder.
A broader examination of the Met’s antiquities collection, conducted by ICIJ, Finance Uncoveredand other media partners in recent months, raises new concerns over the origin of the museum’s inventory of ancient statues, friezes and other relics.
What the Met decides to do about these concerns will have consequences beyond the museum and may influence what the public can expect from museums all over the world.
