Exploring The Art Market Ep 8 The Right To Destroy Exploring the Art Market

When you hear the words “cultural heritage” what comes to your mind? Which would the rights and obligations of owners and holders of it be? Should there be any? And in general — is it about personal ownership and hence personal decision or the society at large needs to always be taken into the equation?

In today’s episode of “Exploring the art market” podcast I would like to talk about the right to destroy.



P.S. The painting I mentioned — Ecce Homo (“Behold the Man”) by Elías García Martínez, dubbed Ecce Mono (“Behold the Monkey”) after the “restoration” by Cecilia Giménez — more on that, including images, here: https://www.amusingplanet.com/2017/01/ecce-homo-botched-painting-that-saved.html
