Year – 2009
By the early ‘90s it had become evident just how wrong the “establishment” had been. His gallery now consisted of 181 Renoirs, 69 Cézannes, 60 Matisses, 44 Picassos, and 14 Modiglianis. The 9,000-piece collection is valued at over $25 billion. So now the very people who dismissed his collection set their sights on taking it – his will be damned. This film documents the infuriating and systematic machinations devised to confiscate what was probably the most valuable, privately owned art collection in the world. All this is made even more outrageus given that three primary organizations involved (The Pew Charitable Trusts, the Lenfest Foundation and the Annenberg Foundation) are supposedly stewards of the arts.
