  • Art Antiquity and Law (U.K.) A quarterly, which starting in 1996, was designed for all who value the cultural and historical environment. “The principal aim of the Quarterly is to inform. It exists to tell those who work in art and antiquity about the law governing their activities and the policies behind the law. It is founded on the belief, never more confident than today, that cultural life cannot in a legal vacuum. In our conviction, all responsible members of the art and history community should be aware of the role which law plays in shaping cultural policy. To understand law, however demanding the task, is to meet its challenges more effectively.”

Our latest article explores what this development could mean for Canadian artists and why a similar right remains unlikely in the United States.

Explore the tools, challenges, and real-world meth Explore the tools, challenges, and real-world methods behind conducting due diligence in art market transactions!

Join the Center for Art Law for a practical workshop with Lev Yuriditsky of Sqope Intelligence exploring how due diligence is conducted in real-world art market transactions. Moving beyond theory, this session will focus on live case presentations and demonstrate the investigative process behind researching artworks, artists, and market participants.

Through case studies, Lev will walk participants through the realities of due diligence research: what information is publicly available, what may remain inaccessible, and how investigators work with incomplete records and limited documentation. The session will explore practical tools and techniques, including database research, keyword searches, internet archives, reverse image searches, and other open-source intelligence methods.

This workshop is designed for art lawyers, dealers, advisors, collectors, and professionals interested in strengthening their understanding of due diligence practices and investigative research in art transactions.

Earlier this June, the Center for Art Law summer t Earlier this June, the Center for Art Law summer team took a trip to see the ongoing Whitney Biennial in New York City! 🎨🗽 The Whitney Biennial is the longest-running survey of American art, and this year marks its 82nd edition.

This year's exhibition questions what it means to call something "American" amid the current shifts in art and culture across the United States. It includes not only artists from around the U.S., but also artists from countries shaped by the reach of American power, including Vietnam, Afghanistan, and the Philippines.

For an especially thought-provoking art law question, be sure to see David L. Johnson's contribution, Rule (2024–ongoing). Johnson created this work by removing code-of-conduct signs from privately owned public spaces (POPS) across New York City. The piece not only centers civil disobedience as a form of artmaking, but also prompts us to question the ways in which law and zoning codes shape public space.

The Biennial runs through August 23rd, and we highly recommend visiting! Free admission every Friday evening!

In three minutes, pieces by Renoir, Cézanne, and Matisse were suddenly gone. Coming just months after a daytime theft at the Louvre, security experts warn that high-profile museum heists are on the rise.

July 2026, another month of, well, fill in the bla July 2026, another month of, well, fill in the blank.

Summer is for cherries, weddings, garden parties, catching up on reading and catching up with friends. And yet the worst of humanity keeps getting in the way of enjoying what the season brings. The heat so many of us feel right now, in the air, in the headlines, is at times unbearable and frankly unnecessary. Some of it comes from nature; too much of it is man-made.

It is so much harder to build, protect or preserve than to destroy. This month, we invite you to read the latest articles from the Center, including stories inspired by the 250th anniversary of the United States of America, meet our Summer Team, and stay tuned for upcoming events, including a colloquium with Konstantin Akinsha on Ukrainian art and cultural heritage under assault. Thank you, as always, for caring for and protecting art and cultural heritage.

One of our latest articles examines the legal and cultural implications of Banksy's unmasking, exploring how anonymity shaped the reception of his work and what this revelation may mean for the future of his career. More broadly, this piece explores how Banksy’s anonymity functioned within a culture increasingly defined by visibility and personal branding.

Recently one of our summer interns Cara Ianuale vi Recently one of our summer interns Cara Ianuale visited  the MET. Below is her thoughts on one item she saw within the Costume Art exhibition.👗💭⚖️

This fibrous dress in the MET’s Costume Art exhibition rests at the heart of an attribution dispute between artist Anouska Samms and designer Yoav Hadari. In May, Samms alleged that the MET did not rightfully credit her for Corpus Nervina 0.0, which bears significant resemblance to a work, Hair Dress, that she and Hadari created using her proprietary human hair-based textile she developed in 2019. The MET had expressed interest in acquiring Hair Dress in 2025, but plans fell through—according to Samms’ lawyer Jon Sharples, Hadari decided to withdraw Hair Dress and submit two other independently-designed garments instead.

Solely crediting Hadari, the label states that Corpus Nervina 0.0 is made of synthetic fibers, their scattered arrangement and wispy clusters meant to evoke the fragility of the human nervous system. Hadari claims that, while the garment was inspired by Hair Dress, its design, concept, and construction are entirely his own. The museum has declined involvement, indicating that the parties must first try to work it out on their own. For now, the label remains unchanged…
