The German Federal Museum of Art is holding the “Gullit Collection Exhibition†in Bonn, Germany, for the first time to showcase the art that was plundered by Nazi Germany. The sensational Gullit art collection investigation case has once again become a hot spot of social attention after a few years of silence.
On the 19th, the reporter visited the exhibition. The dimly lit, narrow, and tortuous passages in the exhibition room give a sense of oppression and are quiet.
The exhibition is roughly divided into two parts. Some of the paintings include Monet's "Waterloo Bridge", Renoir's Impressionist works, and Picasso's pencil sketches, including 250 rare treasures, some of which are marked "This is a confirmed Nazi plunder."
The other part introduces the discovery process of Gullit's family and his collection. In September 2010, during the routine inspection, Customs officers found that Cornelius Gullit, who was travelling by train, carried 9,000 euros (about RMB 70,000) and suspected that he was suspected of tax evasion.
According to the investigation, Gullit’s late father Hildebrandt Gullit was an art dealer commissioned by Nazi Germany in the 1930s and 1940s. In February 2012, when the police searched Cornelius's residence in Munich, the police found 1,500 pieces of oil paintings, hand-painted, prints and sculptures. The collections were huge and worthless.
In November 2013, the German “Focus†magazine disclosed this news, which aroused the attention of the world. Since these art treasures were the looting of Nazi Germany during the Second World War, the German government decided to confiscate them all. In May 2014, the 81-year-old Cornelius died, and the true origins of these collections became a mystery.
In November 2017, this rare treasure of more than 70 years of dust, after the necessary repairs by the German government, finally saw the day in Bonn.
The German government hopes that through this exhibition, the descendants of the family who were robbed by the Nazis will claim their belongings and provide historical materials for the historians to analyze the artistic orientation of the Nazis and restore a historical truth. More importantly, the story behind the exhibits tells the Nazi anti-human sin and warns that the terrible history of later generations cannot be repeated.
The exhibition will end on March 11, 2018.
