Nazi Looted Art - Who Owns it Now?
Article from Shoreline Publishing newspapers on talk given 8/19/04 at the Madison Beach Club, Madison, CT

"You have the natural flair, symmetry and flow of a novelist that has been at the craft for many, many years. As an archivist/bibliographer/librarian I am constantly inundated with books, book reviews, etc. I do not always shout from the rooftop about a book. But I picked up An Artful Affair (at the Book Fair) in Chicago, and once I read the first ten pages I was hooked! I read the entire book in one sitting."

–– Carter B. Cue, Archivist, Winston Salem State University

"A highly entertaining and engrossing tale that accurately explores the intrigues and truths of the art world."

–– Harmer Johnson, former Sotheby’s Expert

"There is really so little meaningful observation of the art community that your book is bound to succeed."

–– Ivan Karp, OK Harris Gallery

"A delightful romp through the art market, an engaging morality tale complete with villains and heroes. Clendenen captures the fizz and the fun of the art world of the 1970s."

–– Nancy Green, Senior Curator, Herbert F. Johnson Museum of Art, Cornell University

"An assiduous, panoramic journey through the art community of New York City in the late '70's. Part romance, part suspense, Clendenen's debut...plays out against the exciting panorama of galleries and auctions, with much welcome detail on the intricacies of each, along with fascinating information on actual forgeries of the past. The author excels at seamlessly integrating facets of the art world into her narrative, an intriguing tale of the art world that moves far beyond the gallery's sparkling lobby."
