Author and accomplished musician Nick Greenberg welcomes readers into the heart of Cincinnati, where pierogi slinging food truck chef Anton Cherny is about to make a series of bad decisions in the new book The Culinary Caper. When readers meet Anton, he is up to his eyeballs in debt and desperate to find a way out of his dire situation. Enter Ricky, Anton's old art school buddy, who has concocted a daring solution: art thievery. The plan is straightforward. While catering parties for members of the Cincinnati Reds and Bengals teams, who are unknowingly buying priceless works of previously pilfered art, Anton and Ricky swap out the paintings with forgeries, then return the originals to the insurance company for the generous reward money. Easy-peasy, until Anton discovers that his new girlfriend is the daughter of a ruthless Russian mob boss. Adding to his plateful of anxieties are the emotional and financial strains of supporting a son he's never met, fielding threats from a Tolstoy-quoting loan shark, and mounting tension with his food truck partner. Will Chef Anton have to face the reality that his goose is cooked? Or can he employ his culinary expertise to prevail over the multifaceted morass in which he finds himself? The Culinary Caper is part of a highly entertaining three-book series from Greenberg that blends equal measures of food, music, humor, crime and romance with eccentric characters and unlikely escapades.

The Buddies found themselves in an unfamiliar section of the book store this week, as they wandered into the the non-fiction arena. A fellow Buddy/listener recommended The Art Thief by Michael Finkel, and the Buddies had to oblige. The book follows the crazy and somehow true story of Stéphane Breitwieser & Anne-Catherine Kleinklaus, and their torrid stealing spree across Europe. The Buddies got to discussing the pros and cons of stealing 2 billion dollars' worth of art, why having extra vacation time is bad, and why living by a code like Omar from the Wire is so important. So get your Swiss Army Knife ready, read up on the European legal system, and join us as we take on The Art Thief.Intro/Book Report (0:00-4:30)Stock Up/Down (4:31-32:51)Favorite Character (32:52-35:15)Love/Hate (35:16-39:46)Favorite Art Heist Movies (39:47-41:05)Conclusion (41:06-42:25) NEXT BOOK: North Woods by Daniel Mason

Michael Finkel's book The Art Thief chronicles one of the most outrageous crime sprees in history.
This episode isn't about a typical true crime story. There's no murder, but there doesn't need to be to make it a wild story. This is about manipulation, tragedy…and obsession. Lots of obsession.

Michael Finkel discusses The Art Thief.
Michael Finkel discusses the remarkable story of Stéphane Breitwieser, the subject of his recent book, The Art Thief, including: The genesis of the book project, starting with a three-paragraph article, and eventually turning into a 10+ year-project; the style and methods of theft that Breitwieser and his partner, Anne-Catherine Kleinklaus, put to work; Michael's favorite Breitwieser crimes; his widely oscillating perception of Breitwieser, from a selfish brat to ‘the best art professor I've ever had;' how Breitwieser protected both Anne-Catherine and his mother by lying on their behalf, but ultimately told the truth to authorities when it came to his own role in the crime sprees; Breitwieser's Icarus-like trajectory playing out over several years as a result of his increasing addiction to art theft; a teaser of an ongoing plot point related to one of the Art Thief's main characters, one which may very well be revealed in the soft cover release of the book; and how what Breitwieser and Christopher Knight, the protagonist of Finkel's earlier book, The Stranger in the Woods, have in common is that they're extreme outliers who make their own rules.
Join Michael in his conversation with Michael Finkel to discuss his new book, The Art Thief: A True Story of Love, Crime and a Dangerous Obsession which chronicles the life of Stephane Breitwieser the most prolific art thief in history responsible for the theft of over 200 works of art in a ten-year period worth nearly two billion dollars.

[click, static] You didn't put a question mark at the end, but I'm going to assume it's a question anyway—or, asking for confirmation at least. I'm glad you're okay—thanks for sending me something, even if I'm not totally sure what to say in response. I've never really, um...talked about this. At least not to anyone not in it with me. [click, static] But, yes, I was an art thief. I mean, that's the easiest way to describe it anyway. And, you know, it wasn't always art-art— like with Sylvia, it was sometimes antiques and what-not. I'm sure you're wondering how I got into it when I'm clearly not an art connoisseur and the answer is really that I fell backwards into it. To finish my story from the other day, I guess, and completely incriminate myself I met Pete trying to rob him of some jewelry he'd robbed from some Park Ave fat cat—that was mainly my thing at the time. Burglary. Um, I didn't—when I got to New York, I didn't know what I wanted to do with my life, so I got a job at a hardware store in a really nice part of town and that led to me doing in home repairs for some folks in the neighborhood and...well, you fix enough wall sconces in five bedroom apartments while you're living with four other people in a shitty downtown box and you start to have some feelings about some things. I am as good at breaking things as I am at fixing them, so it was easy for me to get into empty apartments, into locked drawers or safes and it was easy for me to case a place if I was already there doing repairs— [click, static] God, it's weird to talk about this out loud and on a public frequency. I don't know what you might be thinking of me, finding out I'm some kind of common criminal, but I never stole from anyone who really needed it. I always tried to make sure to leave alone the stuff that seemed like it might have real sentimental value to, but of course you can never really tell— [click, static] Anyway, Pete—rather than punching me in the jaw for trying to rob him, he offered me a job. He said he liked the way I had broken in, leaving no trace. He needed a yeggman—um, a safecracker—and I wasn't too shabby at it, even as inexperienced as I was. So that's what I did. [click, static] I was twenty-two years old and I'd been in New York for all of...eighteen months? And I had somehow fallen in with one of the best thieves in a city filled to the brim with expert criminals. Up until I got stuck with Harry for half a decade, I had pretty good luck with the people I fell in with. And now I've got you, Birdie—or, I hope I do, after all this. So I think my luck is turning back around. [click, static] .- .-. - / - .... .. . ..-. Art Thief

A new book tells the story of one of the most prolific art thieves in history, who, rather than selling the art he stole, kept it all on display in secret rooms. Stéphane Breitwieser was eventually caught, but not before he stole more than 300 artworks worth an estimated $2 billion. Author Michael Finkel joins us to discuss the story and his new book, The Art Thief: A True Story of Love, Crime, and a Dangerous Obsession.
For centuries, works of art have been stolen in countless ways from all over the world, but no one has been quite as successful at it as the master thief Stéphane Breitwieser. Carrying out more than two hundred heists over nearly eight years—in museums and cathedrals all over Europe—Breitwieser, along with his girlfriend who worked as his lookout, stole more than three hundred objects, until it all fell apart in spectacular fashion.In "The Art Thief," Michael Finkel brings us into Breitwieser's strange and fascinating world. Unlike most thieves, Breitwieser never stole for money.
Adam Worth was the Victorian Era's most infamous thief. He was so sneaky, so devious and so damn good at his job that he became Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's inspiration for Dr. Moriarity, arch-nemesis of Sherlock Holmes. Worth's exploits earned him the nickname “The Napoleon of Crime,” a nod to his ceaseless drive to steal anything that wasn't nailed to the floor. (And even if it was, he'd steal it anyway.) Worth and an array of ne'er-do-wells were as innovative as they were crooked, tunneling their way into bank vaults from adjacent building basements, setting up shape-shifting illegal gambling dens and slipping into new countries and identities when things got too hot. Worth was pursued across continents by the Pinkerton detective agency (which would one day become the Secret Service) and he cemented his status as one of the greatest thieves in history when he stole an incredibly famous painting of Georgiana Cavendish, The Duchess of Devonshire, right off the wall of a London gallery. Worth held onto the pilfered portrait for years, chauffeuring it around the world in the false bottom of a luggage trunk. Some say he was waiting for the right moment to sell it, others believe he fell in love with the Duchess's beguiling image. So how did it end for the art thief and his prized score?

After my month-long trip to Andalucia in May, I decided that staying home for a bit was a good idea. I would use that time during June, July, and August - quiet months in Charleston- to work on…. me. I know, shocking! A few short trips here and there entertained me enough without breaking my summer resolutions. I am going away for a couple of weeks in August and will be back with more news and resources to share! I rewarded my good behavior with serious pampering, including facials and massages. I also did some online “sale” shopping at Saks and Bergdorfs and snatched a few goodies that I had been eyeing for a while (more rewards for my excellent behavior!) I have read and watched and shopped and eaten and cooked. Here are the highlights: Read:The Mostly True Story of Tanner Louise by Coleen Oakley. Wonderfully charming and enlightening story of friendship across the ages and, by the same author The Invisible Husband of Frick Island, my favorite book this summer (so far) Zero Days by Ruth Ware. A fast-moving thriller that will keep you entertained. The Art Thief by Michael Finkel. Based on the true story of one of the most notorious art thieves. The poolside reading included Lucy Foley's The Paris Apartment and The Hunting Party. Both riveting mysteries very much in an elegant Agatha Christie style. Watch:Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny. (In theaters) Absolutely fantastic. A huge amount of fun and a brilliant end to the series. Well done!Hijack (Apple TV) Idris Elba stars in a hijack plane story. I loved it. Ridley (PBS) Irresistible police procedural inspired by real stories of retired policemen who are asked to rejoin as consultants. Sound of Freedom (In theaters) If there is one movie to see, this is it. Eye-opening, well done, and touching a subject we should all be very concerned about. Collect:A new gallery in town by the fabulously talented Stephen Elliott Webb showcases his art and artistry in grand abstract bold paintings. They are fabulous! This new space is his studio and gallery located at The Jasper at 320 Broad St. Please make a point of visiting his website and his gallery when in town. Eat:Now addicted to the salted pecans from Trader Jo's. Cook: White Asparagus Gazpacho This recipe has changed my cold summer soup repertoire. So easy to make -all you need is a blender- and totally delicious. Serve it very cold, garnished with mini croutons or bits of green asparagus. I have made it both with and without the hard-boiled egg with excellent results. The egg makes it thicker and creamier, more like the texture of vichyssoise. Without the egg, it is closer to a regular tomato gazpacho. (The ice cubes help with the amalgamation of the olive oil)* 1 lb jarred with asparagus (with their liquid)* 2-inch piece of cucumber, peeled* 1 hard-boiled egg (optional) * 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar* 4 tablespoons olive oil* Handful of ice cubes* 1/4 teaspoon salt and pepper or more to taste Place all the ingredients in a blender and pure until very smooth.

Stéphane Breitwieser and Anne-Catherine Kleinklaus stole hundreds of pieces of valuable art — but they did it out of a love for beautiful things, not monetary gain. Author Michael Finkel tells their story in the new book, The Art Thief: A True Story of Love, Crime and a Dangerous Obsession.
Between 1995 and 2001, Stéphane Breitweiser stole 239 works of art from more than 100 museums around Europe. He never sold a single one.

Hannah has returned from driving Aunt Janet to Connecticut with new furniture that is perhaps exciting only for us, but it's now much less likely you'll stumble into the non-fiction table and knock a lot of books to the ground. Also, lots of books this week, including "Infested," by Angel Luis Colón, the first book from MTV Fear (which is a real thing and Sam liked it); and "The Puzzle Master," which Hannah doesn't remember ordering, but is an enjoyable combo package of traumatic brain injury and Jewish mysticism and creepy dolls. How do we sell these books to our readers? Horror is hot everywhere else. Then we move into an old-guy-having-sex book by J.M. Coetzee, "The Pole"; and then the much better "The Art Thief," by Michael Finkel, who really is a terrific storyteller, about a real-life master thief who's hard not to like ("prisons for artwork" is amazing). Oh, and Sam has now read "Warrior Girl Unearthed," too, and so should you because you need to appreciate the level of moral bankruptcy it describes, and Hannah, did, indeed read "When Women for Dragons" for Book Club, but, well, only one person showed up, so we're going to talk about it some more (it's mostly about wanting to roast Brett Kavanaugh in fire).
Hello, listeners! I've got a special surprise for you this week. I absolutely loved this new book by author and journalist Michael Finkel, and I didn't want to wait any longer to share it with you.

So you may have encountered the remarkable story of Stéphane Breitwieser, the world's most prolific art thief, in Finkel's 2019 article “The Secrets of the World's Greatest Art Thief” (GQ). Breitwieser, along with his girlfriend who worked as his lookout, carried out more than two hundred heists over nearly eight years, stealing more than three hundred objects, until it all fell apart in spectacular fashion.

One of the most remarkable true-crime narratives of the twenty-first century: the story of the world's most prolific art thief, Stéphane Breitwieser.In this spellbinding portrait of obsession and flawed genius, the best-selling author of The Stranger in the Woods brings us into Breitwieser's strange world--unlike most thieves, he never stole for money, keeping all his treasures in a single room where he could admire them.For centuries, works of art have been stolen in countless ways from all over the world, but no one has been quite as successful at it as the master thief Stéphane Breitwieser. Carrying out more than two hundred heists over nearly eight years--in museums and cathedrals all over Europe--Breitwieser, along with his girlfriend who worked as his lookout, stole more than three hundred objects, until it all fell apart in spectacular fashion.Michael Finkel also had his identity and career damaged when a man wanted for murder stole his identity and passed himself off as Mr Finkel in Mexico.Michael previously appeared on the Opperman Report to discuss his project 'Stranger In The Woods'Website : Michael FinkelThis show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/1198501/advertisement

Art scams are like no other. They are like a theatrical play with scammers and art forgers producing, writing and directing the show. Even the suckers are part of the script, anxious to play their roles, even when they suspect there may be an unhappy ending for them.The majority of the rules that apply to most scams, don't apply here. Some people get involved for fame, some for ego and others for fortune. Those that are in it for fame or ego, usually don't get a cut of the fortune, and they are just fine with that. As the curtain goes up, listen closely. Things are going to get freaky.The Art Thief and other books by Noah Charney
In 1961, a painting by Francisco Goya was stolen from the National Gallery of London. It was assumed that a skilled gang of art thieves had broken in to sell it to a private collector. The truth was much stranger: the thief was a retired bus driver who wanted charity payments to cover TV licences in Britain for the old and the vulnerable. That story is the inspiration for a new film, The Duke, produced by Nicky Bentham

This is an encore presentation of the mini episode I recorded on Pablo Picasso and his tendency to appropriate or even downright steal from those around him. In 1911, The Mona Lisa was stolen from the Louvre Museum and Pablo Picasso was one of the prime suspects. While he was not guilty of that crime, he was in possession of some other works that were stamped property of The Louvre and he went on trial facing deportation. Just a reminder while Picasso was knocked out of our Arts Madness Tournament in round 1 this year, you can still vote for your favorites among the remaining artists at www.whoartedpodcast.com If you would like to support the show, I recently partnered with Ko-Fi to be able to accept donations to cover the costs of production. You can buy me a coffee at https://ko-fi.com/whoarted Because I do not want disruptive ads and I put nothing behind a paywall, listener donations are my only means of defraying the costs. I greatly appreciate your support.
