Fans of Dr. Vikan's compelling WYPR "Postcards From the Walters"will enjoy this 2009--2010 series of lively on-stage chats, with Dr. Vikan hosting distinguished guests. In this session, he will chat with author Noah Charney, and will discuss Charney’s novel, The Art Thief and issues of art theft. Charney is the director of the Association for Research into Crimes against Art. An "after-talk" reception and book signing follow.

The first 10 visitors dressed as 'stolen artworks' (think Caravaggio, Vermeer, Malevich, etc.) will be admitted FREE.  (Please note: security requires masks, costume ‘weapons’, large bags, etc. must be checked.)
