Six decades later\, declaring that theft irrelevant\, the Austrian government refused to return the painting to the woman’s niece. But the 81-year-old\, who’d fled Vienna during the Holocaust\, refused to be a victim again and fought back . . . all the way to the US Supreme Court. \nHelen Mirren\, the star of Woman in Gold\, the film based on that story (who has won an Oscar\, a Tony\, a Golden Globe and three Emmy Awards)\, will discuss the ironic transformation of the portrait of a Jewish woman into an Austrian national treasure\, her niece’s long legal battle and the importance of pursuing truth. Scenes from the film will be screened. \nModerated by Ambassador Ido Aharoni. \n URL: LOCATION:Streicker Center\, 10 East 66th Street\, New York\, NY\, 10065\, United States CATEGORIES:Streicker Center ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg: ORGANIZER;CN="Streicker%20Center" END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
