The heirs filed suit on 15 October this year at the US District Court for the District of Columbia against the Kunstmuseen Krefeld, the authority that runs Krefeld’s museums. They are also seeking compensation for four additional Mondrian works that they say the museum wrongfully sold or exchanged even though it was not the legal owner.“The trustees first attempted to resolve this dispute out of court,” said a statement from their US legal representative Herrick, Feinstein. “Kunstmuseen Krefeld rejected their claims and they have been compelled to take legal action to enforce their rights.” (English)

The Mondrian Case: Provenance Dossier Supports the Position of the City of Krefeld (English)
2 July 2019
The City of Krefeld had the provenance of four paintings by the Dutch artist Piet Mondrian (1872–1944) comprehensively investigated. The paintings with the titles Tableau No. VII, Tableau No. X, Tableau No. XI (all 1925), and Composition IV (1926) belong to the holdings of the Kunstmuseen Krefeld. Descendants of the Mondrian heir Harry Holtzman demand the return of the works of art. They claim that the works were misappropriated at the time, and that this fact has been kept under cover for decades.The City of Krefeld took these accusations seriously and thoroughly reviewed the facts of the case. To these ends, the city commissioned the scholars Dr. Katja Terlau and Dr. Vanessa-Maria Voigt to conduct comprehensive provenance research. The results of this research are now available. A summary is attached to this communication. According to this research, there is every indication that the works by Mondrian are legitimately in the possession of the City of Krefeld. (English)
