Huh, SDNY is filing civil seizure of Nazi looted art from an unidentified "NY Art Dealer" that was purchased in 2013. This may just be a coincidence, but that was back during the time a certain political lobbyist in NY was wheeling & dealing art work.

This discusses a certain lobbyist that was referred to SDNY in early 2017 by Robert Mueller's team & Rod Rosenstein.
Sounds like a good way to launder money that art dealing business... Donate it to folks & museums for favors...

He had to sell his NY condo & some of his art when his buddy Paul Manafort plead guilty & forced him to cease business of his lobbying firm. So it might just be a coincidence, but the timing is funny with everthing else breaking now.
The art work has been impounded since 2013 with the NY dealer who was reselling the art work. So why did this case sit in limbo for 6+ years & suddenly result in a seizure at this time? Who was the owner selling it?
But to add to the weirdness, Marc Rich's artist grand son reportedly committed suicide in London last week. Poor kid, claims are it was related to a broken heart.

But then I see this, what does his dad do? He's a NY Art Dealer. dailymail.co.uk/femail/article…
And what do I find while looking for info on his dad? A discussion about Podesta & others renting art to their own businesses to claim a personal profit on the art. news.artnet.com/opinion/podest…
Very interesting indeed.
Kenny Schachter & Heather Podesta, Tony's wife both presented at this event in Miami in 2016. So it is probably a very small world. Where Marc Rich's son in law is hanging out with Tony Podesta and his wife. artnews.com/2016/11/16/art…
I know less than zero about the art world, but when I see articles about missing art collections, concerns that the #PanamaPapers are going to cause a big scandal in the art world, me ears prick up... artmarketmonitor.com/2016/07/01/wha…
Not surprisingly, he is not a fan of Trump, go figure...
