The National Gallery of Art. The Art of the Steal preceded by From Impressionism to Modernism: The Chester Dale Collection
The saga of art collector Albert C. Barnes and the political fray that recently ensued over the future of his invaluable works by Picasso, Cézanne, Matisse, and other early modernists is, in the words of one reviewer, "a deep and troubling story [of] an art hijacking at its most bureaucratic." (Don Argott, 2009, HD-Cam, 100 minutes)
