One more bonus episode for you, our amazing listeners. ArtCurious is returning in April!
From the creators of Missing Maura Murray and Crawlspace comes Empty Frames, a new investigative podcast aiming to find answers to one of the biggest mysteries the world has ever seen.
In the early morning hours of March 18th, 1990, the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston, Massachusetts fell victim to the most audacious art heist in modern history.
In eighty-one minutes, two thieves dressed as policemen, made off with 13 pieces of artwork; with an estimated value of half a billion dollars. Works by Vermeer, Degas, and Rembrandt were stripped from their frames never to be seen by the public again.
Deep within the criminal underground, theories of their whereabouts and those who perpetrated the heist are abundant.
In Empty Frames, Tim and Lance from the popular true crime podcasts, Missing Maura Murray & Crawlspace, will dive into the case, exploring all angles. Along with investigators, reporters, art theft experts and citizens, they will paint their own portrait comprised of the theories and the social and economic impact the greatest unsolved art heist of all time had on a community.
