The Josef Pollák Collection
Entitled The Josef Pollák Collection, this online exhibition presents the results of research conducted by the Documentation Centre for Property Transfers of the Cultural Assets of WWII Victims, focusing on the deposit that Josef Pollák placed in the Museum of Decorative Arts in Prague in 1939. As well as presenting the life stories of the Pollák family, it presents a selection of items from his art collection and illustrates how they were identified. This allows viewers to glimpse the stories hidden behind the exhibits in museum and gallery collections.
The new website www.identifikovano.cz will be supplemented in the future with further case studies, presenting the public with the complex mechanisms of dealing with the property of Second World War victims.
