A cannon belonging to the King of Kandy, power figures from the Democratic Republic of Congo, the Benin bronzes, statues from javanese temples : these are just a few of the many, mostly stolen, objects that have come into the possession of museums and private collections in the Netherlands and Belgium. Dominating the discussions about colonial collections and restitution are Great Britain, Germany and France. But the Netherlands and Belgium, two former colonial powers, must now also respond to the former colonies asking for the return of their collections. How and when did these collections get here, and where are they now ? Are they all looted art ? How does restitution work ? Are there any successful examples ? Who decides where an object's importance lies ? "Inconvenient heritage : colonial collections and restitution in the Netherlands and Belgium" is the first book to address these questions from the dutch and belgian perspectives. As in other european countries, the answers are far from straightforward.

Museums of contemporary art are expanding and in crisis. They attract ever-larger audiences, architects constantly redesign them, and the growing number of artists is producing more massively than ever; at the same time museum funds are dwindling in the economic crisis and an overheated art market. The question of which art is to be collected is also becoming a more openly discussed topic in a globalized art world. How do curators meet these challenges ? What opinion do the artists have of their relationship to the museum ? How do practitioners navigate between ideas, ideals, and realities ?This publication gathers together interviews with international artists, architects, and curators of the contemporary art world, such as John Baldessari, Ute Meta Bauer, Suzanne Cotter, Bice Curiger, Chris Dercon, Charles Esche, Liam Gillick, Michael Govan, Katharina Grosse, Yuko Hasegawa, Jacques Herzog, Thomas Hirschhorn, Philipp Kaiser, Rem Koolhaas, Lars Nittve, Hans Ulrich Obrist, Thierry Raspail, Tobias Rehberger, Beatrix Ruf, among others. Their different answers bring visibility to the complexity of the topic, but also to the deep pleasure and intellectual stimulation museums provide, as well as to their relevance to culture today.
