The acquisition, ownership, and sale of artwork is a highly specialised field. Whatever the circumstances, we aim to identify and deliver commercially informed, pragmatic and bespoke solutions for our clients.
Our specialists in art tax and law deal with art transactions and other relevant issues and disputes. These include matters relating to contract, auction, attribution, provenance, restitution, artist rights, cultural heritage, intellectual property, tax and estate planning – including tax incentives such as the Cultural Gifts Scheme in the UK, Art Bonus in Italy, and inheritance tax conditional exemption – export licences , insurance, finance and collateral.
Our clients are primarily collectors and investors, agents and introducers, but we also act for and deal with artists, dealers, auction houses, museums, galleries, consignors, storage companies and appraisers.
