I am hitting a wall': heir of Jewish art collector calls for restitution from Germany
Briefly

The pieces in question are an exquisite Picasso bronze bust and two prized paintings by Paul Klee, in the possession of the Bavarian state art holdings in Munich.
Critics say Hulton's long wait is symptomatic of a German restitution policy mired in red tape and foot-dragging, and that proposed changes due to be implemented next year represent verschlimmbessern.
Numerous museums and private collectors have recognized the sad fate of Uncle Alfred and demonstrated their clear commitment to undo the injustice our family experienced.
I want the Bavarian government to reverse their dishonesty to me and many other victims' families, and I want them to do this now.
