Do statutory bars to Holocaust victim families recovering looted artworks violate the international law of war? Our speaker explores this question. Article 47 of the 1899 and 1907 Hague Conventions on Land Warfare forbids pillage. Article 56 requires “legal proceedings” for seizures of artworks. Following World War II, using statutes of limitations and acquisitive prescription, many Hague Convention signatories closed their courts to Nazi-era claims to recover pillaged and seized artworks. Closing courts to “legal proceedings” violates the Hague Convention, defeats its goal of taking the profit motive out of wars of aggression, and rewards concealment and laundering stolen property. In the United States, Congress passed the Holocaust Victims Redress Act of 1998 (the “HVRA“) to apply the 1907 Hague Convention to claims involving Nazi looted art. The Holocaust Expropriated Art Recovery Act of 2016 (the “HEAR Act”) reopened U.S. courts and extended statutes of limitations by six years for past and future claims to artworks and cultural property lost as a result of Nazi persecution. Our speaker urges that the U.S. approach of re-opening the courts is required by the Hague Convention. Hague Convention compliance could be best achieved by a Directive from the European Parliament requiring re-opening courts to such claims.
