What is up with art theft?! Just read this article in Bloomsberg on-line about yet another art theft, this one at a dealer's home. It's the second time the dealer was robbed at home. It must be a high-paying turn-around ... according to the article, the thieves left the scene in an SUV and then burned the SUV in the woods later. Burn the get-away-vehicle? Much?There seem to have been plenty of art thefts in Norway recently, and now these in France. Who buys stolen art? It's not like cash, which can be used just about anywhere. I don't get it. I don't understand why or how anyone would find profit in stealing art.
