Here is what people are saying about the Center for Art Law:

I have followed the Center’s work for years. It truly was a dream come true to work with Irina and Atreya for an entire year. I met incredible people, worked on amicus briefs, published articles, and worked on the Nazi-looted art database. As a law student pursuing a career in art law in New York, this experience has been invaluable. The team is one-of-a-kind, supportive, and funny. I highly recommend working with the Center, and I hope to stay involved in the future.

Lauren Stein

Legal Intern (Fall 2025-Spring 2026)

I would have never imagined that I could still have a meaningful summer during Covid-19, so I am immensely grateful for the opportunity that was given to me by the Center to learn more about art law and the intricacies of the art world.

Amber Lee

Florida U. School of Law, J.D. 2021 | Legal Intern, Summer 2020.

A metaphor seems apt to describe the experience I had working at the Center for Art Law as a Legal Intern – with the multitude of projects assigned and hats worn, my millinery wardrobe has become outfitted for most any occasion taking place in the art law field. Longterm relationships formed, tailored skills expanded, and a couple new hats to show off.

Marina Rastorfer

Legal Intern (Spring 2026)

I’m so grateful for my experience working as a legal intern this summer at the Center for Art Law. Whether conducting legal research, preparing reading materials for events, or working on the Center’s online art law resources, my assignments were educational, thought-provoking, and fun! In particular I enjoyed the interdisciplinary nature of this experience. One of the invaluable aspects of working with this summer team was the opportunity to collaborate with interns with diverse backgrounds in art history, law, and visual arts.

Visala Alagappan

Harvard U. School of Law, J.D. 2023 | Legal Intern, Summer 2021

The Center for Art Law furthers a very important mission, because the art world is suffering from little transparency at the moment. Artists, galleries, and museums may be tainted with criminal activities, and the Center keeps people aware of what is happening.

Renato Danese

President, DANESE / COREY gallery

It has been my pleasure to work at the Center for Art Law with like-minded students, meeting fascinating and accomplished artists and attorneys.

Laurel Salisbury

Through my internship, I have met with a great many attorneys who have generously provided me with nuggets of wisdom and advice to guide my aspirations of becoming an art lawyer.

Timothy Chung

Columbia Law School, J.D. 2021 | Legal Intern, Summer 2019.

As a Legal Intern, I quickly realized that the Center prioritizes serious research, writing, and active participation in the art law world. The Center has given me great opportunities to develop a future career in art law.

Marla Katz

University of Connecticut School of Law, J.D. 2022 | Legal Intern, Summer 2020

My time at the Center helped me develop a passion for art law and determination to become an art lawyer. I practiced valuable legal research and writing skills while writing my article and learned so much that I am now planning to go to law school after graduating from college.

Lucy Siegel

Bowdoin College, B.A. 2022 | Intern, Summer 2020

The Center for Art Law is one of the best resources in the art law industry for the in-depth analysis of significant developments, review of books/publications and informative presentations. The Center’s written content is top-quality, well-researched, informative, relevant and timely. The Center and its founder, Irina Tarsis, are known to put together excellent educational seminars on a wide range of topics from artists’ rights to cultural repatriation.

Wilson Elser, Partner and art law practitioner | Center for Art Law Advisor.

During my time in law school, I had a desire to learn more about the art law field. I started searching for information regarding different courses and programs. Thanks to the Center’s website I found information about a Master in Art Law at Luiss University. I applied and got a full scholarship. The program [at Carli] gave me an opportunity to learn about the various legal issues involved in the overall regulation of the art sector and explore Rome.

I had a great experience interning with the Center for Art Law. I not only helped with the Center’s projects but gained valuable skills around writing, researching and networking that I know will benefit me in my future career. I would highly recommend this internship to anyone interested in the field of art law!

Alexis Redshaw

University of Iowa, Class of 2022 | Undergraduate Inter, Fall 2021.

My 2023 Spring was well spent with the Center, despite remotely. I enjoyed the Friday mornings when all of the interns and supervisors convened to share about our week and, of course, art law! Surrounded by a group of like-minded people with different experience is fascinating for someone who wants to find an art law community. I learned so much about the field and I was truly honored to be able to connect with art law professionals.

Cynthia Li

University of Michigan, Class of 2023 | Undergraduate Intern, Spring 2023

Working as a remote legal intern based in the UK, I always felt fully integrated into the team. The Center empowered me to take on projects aligned with my interests, and I was able to contribute meaningfully to a range of initiatives within the field of art law. The entire team was wonderfully supportive, united by a genuine spirit of curiosity. Overall, a highly rewarding internship!
