A few days old, but newsworthy nonetheless. From the New York Post:

The heirs of famed photographer Philippe Halsman, who frequently collaborated with the Spanish surrealist, want the Howard Greenberg Gallery to pay them $684,000 for the lost photos, plus damages. Howard Greenberg, the East 57th Street gallery owner who is named in the suit, said that in 2007, 44 works were stolen, 41 of which were Dali/Halsman works, according to the complaint.
