THE MONETARY VALUE IS ESTIMATED AT OVER HALF A BILLION DOLLARS. YET, FOR THE MOST PART, THE MUSEUMS GAVE UP THESE PRIZED OBJECTS UNDER NO LEGAL OBLIGATION AND WITHOUT COMPENSATION. WHY WOULD THEY BE MOVED TO SUCH UNHEARD-OF GENEROSITY? THE ANSWER LIES AT THE GETTY MUSEUM, ONE OF THE WORLD’S RICHEST AND MOST TROUBLED, DUE TO SCANDALOUS REVELATIONS THAT THEY BOUGHT LOOTED ANTIQUITIES FOR DECADES. DRAWING ON A TROVE OF CONFIDENTIAL MUSEUM RECORDS AND FRANK INTERVIEWS, FELCH AND FRAMMOLINO GIVE US A FLY-ON-THE-WALL ACCOUNT OF THE INNER WORKINGS OF A WORLD-CLASS MUSEUM, AND TELL THE STORY OF THE GETTY’S DEALINGS IN THE ILLEGAL ANTIQUITIES TRADE. THE OUTLANDISH CHARACTERS AND BAD BEHAVIOR COULD BE FROM AN AGATHA CHRISTIE STORY - THE WEALTHY RECLUSE FOUNDER; THE CAGEY ITALIAN ART INVESTIGATOR; THE PLAYBOY CURATOR; THE NARCISSIST CEO—BUT THEIR CHILLING EFFECTS ON THE REST OF THE ART WORLD HAVE BEEN ALL TOO REAL, AS THE AUTHORS SHOW IN NOVELISTIC DETAIL. FAST-PACED AND COMPELLING, CHASING APHRODITE EXPOSES THE LAY OF DIRT BENEATH THE POLISHED FAçADE OF THE MUSEUM BUSINESS. |
