DETROIT — A Brazilian art collector has asked a federal judge to order the Detroit Institute of Arts to hand over Vincent van Gogh's"The Novel Reader," alleging that the painting was stolen, according to court documents.
DIA said it applied for immunity under the Federal Immunity from Seizure Act for 27 pieces of art being shown in the exhibition, including the Van Gogh painting in dispute. The U.S. State Department granted immunity for the DIA's entire submission in July, according to court filings. The DIA has asked the court to dismiss the lawsuit, alleging U.S. cultural institutions like itself will suffer substantial harm if the court orders it to hand over the painting to BCP.
