Sažetak
At the end of 2022, the Ministry of Culture and Media of the Republic of Croatia, in collaboration with the Museum Documentation Centre, launched the Pilot Project to Determine the Provenance of Museum Objects Confiscated During and After WWII, as “a major and important first step in correcting injustices committed more than seven decades ago,” which, as Minister of Culture and Media Nina Obuljen Koržinek pointed out, had been denied for years. The immediate goal of the project was to collect existing records and sources about objects that were stored or distributed in museums during and after World War II based on laws enforced by the Independent State of Croatia, and later based on decisions by the Commission for Gathering and Protection of Cultural Monuments and Antiquities (KOMZA), or other methods indicating that these were illegally seized or confiscated properties of Jews and citizens of other nationalities during the Ustasha regime and the postwar period. The long-term objectives of the project include the development of a strategy and methodology for the provenance research of artworks in Croatian museums, improving the profession and professional training, and enhancing the legal framework for dealing with illegally seized artworks.
