Art Law
Travelling the world in climate-controlled crates is a luxury reserved for only the most sought-after hares. Admittedly, they are dead, but they are insured up to their ears – for if even a single hair is out of place, things get expensive. Customs and art authorities track their movements, as museums, collectors and gallery owners are hot on their heels. Catching such rarities is no mean feat, for they are almost exclusively inherited, auctioned or loaned. Merely publishing a photo of a copy may see you in court. These hares need specialists who understand the world of art, to follow them across the globe, protect their rights and keep them safe from hunters.
Our firm’s affinity for art is reflected in our legal experts as well as on our office walls.
