Artist-Cop Volpe: NYPD detective blends art with crime work
New York detective Robert R. Volpe, 31, leads the Art Identification Team, recovering over $2 million in stolen art in 18 months. A lifelong artist, he works solo, eschews uniform, and balances police duties with painting. He commands fame through TV, a forthcoming book, and gallery shows while eyeing a gray line between art and law.
