The Associated Press has a list of notable art heists that have occurred over the course of several years. Between May 2003 and February 2008, $752.5 million in artwork has been stolen worldwide.

The two most recent from the AP:

_ February 2008: Armed robbers steal four paintings by Cezanne, Degas, van Gogh and Monet worth $163.2 million from the E.G. Buehrle Collection, a private museum in Zurich, Switzerland.

_ December 2007: Picasso painting valued at about $50 million, along with one by Brazilian artist Candido Portinari valued at $5 million to $6 million, are stolen from the Sao Paulo Museum of Art in Brazil, by three burglars using a crowbar and a car jack. The paintings were later found.

Globally, the art and antique smuggling business is a $10 billion market.
