As a recent college grad (and a longtime fan of heist movies!), I wanted to examine what these thefts would look like if they featured Chinese American college students, and what it might mean for children of the diaspora to bring lost art back home-art as metaphor for power, but also identity and belonging. When and how did you first come up with the idea for Portrait of a Thief?Ī true story, actually! Several years ago, there was a mysterious string of robberies across Western museums, and all the pieces of art stolen had originally been looted from China. Duke Initiatives in Theology & the Arts.
