Fears Stolen Lindauers Will be Badly Damaged

Abstract

Interview of me in relation to thefts of two Lindauer paintings from the International Art Centre in Parnell on 1 April 2017. I advised there was no black market and that "I hope that whoever is taking care of this grandmother and this grandfather are jolly well looking after them. Because I'm really worries that they might not be seen for some time if they are taken away and stored for a while, which is sometimes what happens. And then they're brought out and people try and sell them to dubious collectors." I didn't think collectors would do that in NZ.
