book explores the untold history of women  art  and crime. It has long been widely accepted
that women have not played an active role in the art crime world  or if they have  it has been
the part of the victim or peacemaker. Women  Art  and Crime overturns this understanding  as it
investigates the female criminals who have destroyed  vandalised  stolen  and forged art  as
well as those who have conned clients and committed white-collar crimes in their professional
occupations in museums  libraries  and galleries. Whether prompted by a desire for revenge  for
money  the instinct to protect a loved one  or simply as an act of quality control  this book
delves into the various motivations and circumstances of women art criminals from a wide range
of countries  including the UK  the USA  New Zealand  Romania  Germany  and France. Through a
consideration of how we have come to perceive art crime and the gendered language associated
with its documentation  this pioneering study questions why women have been left out of the
discourse to date and how  by looking specifically at women  we can gain a more complete
picture of art crime history.
