Another Art Theft

category international | arts and media | other press author Wednesday December 26, 2007 18:27author by Ariko Report this post to the editors

The Coffee-Worker and Picasso Blue period

The Brazilian police are saying that the Image of Suzanne Bloch
who died in 2002, stolen from the Sao Paulo Gallery in Brazil was
'a Professional Heist'.

The painting in oil ,as exhibited on the second floor of the gallery
the other theft was 'The Coffee Worker.'

The Police believe that it was for the delectation of a private collector and that it only
took two minutes to remove it.

Suzanne Bloch was a performer and teacher of medieval and early Rnaissance
music, she used the Virginal- which is related to the Harsichord. Her concerts were
not adulterated by microphone and she made her own costumes. many women
eccentrics did this kind of thing, those who come to mind are Edith Sitwell who dressed
as Eizabeth the First and wrote verse. Tony Blair wanted the Sitwell home demolished,
Another was Emily Dickinson who rejected the prevalent religion of her location
and kept (and wore a white dress)- she wrote tremendous verse also, mostly it
did not get published during her lifetime.

'The Wind's Bastinado' by Edith Sitwell.
'I heard A Funeral in my Brain', by Emily Dickinson.

The Blue Period Picasso is valued in the millions and belongs to the people who
go to the Gallery .

The theft is covered on Wiki.
