At the end of December last year, Swiss painter Miriam Cahn made headlines by announcing that she intended to withdraw her work from Kunsthaus Zürich, Switzerland’s largest art museum. In an open letter to the Swiss-Jewish journal Tacheles, Cahn accused the museum of historical whitewashing, and in an interview with Swiss Radio and Television (SRF) stated: ‘I’ve had enough! I’m a Jew and that’s why I want to withdraw my works from the Kunsthaus.’ The latest chapter in what looks set to grow into Switzerland’s largest museological scandal to date, Cahn’s protest is directed against the Kuntshaus’s revisionist handling of the art collection of industrialist Emil Bührle, a German emigre to Switzerland who is known to have sold weapons to the Nazis, to have acquired art works stolen from Jewish owners, and whose company profited from forced labour by Prisoners of a women's concentration camp in Nazi-Germany.
