Art Law / Art Market Law

Artists, collectors, galleries, antique dealers, sales operators, museums, insurers, banks, investors, amateurs. The art market brings together many players and the law plays an increasingly important role. But it is often a specific regulation, requiring a particular mastery of the subject and a good knowledge of its players. The firm wanted to take this into account by creating a division for art market law, while entrusting the management of this division to a confirmed expert in this field. At the same time, it was a question of meeting the demand of its customers, both national and international.

The firm advises and litigates in particular on questions of

  • Copyright law
  • Sale by mutual agreement or by auction
  • Breaches and cancellations of contracts
  • Problems related to the authenticity of works of art
  • Responsibility of art market players
  • Insurance of works of art
  • Rental of works of art
  • Business investment in art
  • Judicial and extra-judicial expertise
  • Donations and successions
  • Operating structures and company law
  • National and international taxation
