Article reviewing the book "Contested Heritage: Removing Art from Land and Historic Buildings" by Richard Harwood, Catherine Dobson and David Sawtell, 2022. The book tackles the complex subject of property ownership where works of Art are deemed part of land or property and which consents, planning or heritage, may be required when proposing to remove works from their original site. The article picks out some high profile cases including Moore's Draped Seated Woman 1957-58 (LH 428), otherwise known as 'Old Flo' which was relocated from the Stifford Estate in east London to Canary Wharf.
