While museum’s on America’s East Coast struggle to track down provenance of their artwork for the time around World War II, California museums lag far behind. “It’s a high priority, but we don’t have the resources in place,” says a spokesperson for the Armand Hammer Museum. Meanwhile, the Getty Museum, just completing a first phase of inquiry, “has found that more than half of its paintings collection has wartime gaps – 248 of its 425 works.” – Washington Post
