This presentation examines the fundamental transformation of the Indian, Himalayan, and Southeast Asian art market from a "gentleman's agreement" system to today's documentation-driven environment. Sandhya Jain-Patel, AAA will cover the evolution of provenance requirements from pre-2000 practices through watershed moments. Particular attention is given to the nuanced legal framework—including the 1970 UNESCO Convention's delayed U.S. implementation in 1983 and evolving bilateral agreements—and how these create valuation challenges for "orphan objects" caught between legal ownership and market restrictions. Jain-Patel helps attendees understand the distinction between legal requirements and market practices. Attendees will understand why nuanced knowledge of the regulatory timeline is crucial for accurate valuations, and how to navigate options for objects with varying levels of documentation.

Estate planning has evolved. Clients haven't just diversified their families—they've diversified their wealth. From NFTs to AI-generated content to creator royalties, traditional planning tools may not be sufficient.

This cutting-edge CLE assembles experts across law, finance, arts, and mediation to tackle what standard estate courses ignore: protecting creative legacies, navigating blended and chosen family dynamics, and embedding conflict prevention before disputes erupt.

 It centers around an intensive case study featuring The Digital Dynasty—a blended family scenario involving digital twins, competing business/personal legacies and estranged relatives. Work alongside the panel to explore solutions to modern day challenges.
