This exploratory study was conducted to examine the extent of art theft in New York City. The study includes secondary analyses of 229 police complaint reports and twelve completed investigative cases of the NYPD's Art and Antique Investigation Unit collected during the period from January 1985 to December 1988, and personal interviews with a randomly selected sample of forty-five art dealers in New York City. Results from the analysis of police data and the survey were compared, leading to the conclusion that contrary to popular belief, the majority of art theft losses are not substantial and that official records greatly underestimate the extent of this crime.

Latino Gay Men

While Latino gay men have been the focus of HIV prevention efforts for decades, there remains a dearth of Latino gay male-specific HIV interventions. As part of a formative assessment to adapt an HIV prevention intervention, this study explored the process in which urban immigrant Latino gay men negotiate their ethnic, sexual and social identity. The assessment consisted of four focus groups of 28 adult immigrant Latino gay men in New York City. Two major themes emerged: 1) the need for identity formation and integration (including sexuality and ethnic identity); and 2) the need for venues for expression and defining community (including places that accepted the participants as Latino and gay). Based on the emerging themes, we recommend HIV prevention services for Latino gay men be comprehensive and holistic, fostering identity development and integration, as well as skill development. Intervention adaptations need to enhance linguistic translation with deeper knowledge and inclusion of key cultural and community values. In addition, the data indicated few spaces in New York City where Latino gay men felt comfortable articulating a whole self.
