Want to go to a panel discussion and reception held by the Fine Arts Committee of the New York State Bar Association Entertainment Arts & Sports Law Section?

Followed by a Wine and Cheese Reception
Are brick and mortar art galleries the loss leaders in an art world, potentially spiraling beyond viable limits?
More than ninety art fairs now define the rhythm of globalized art
business. This development has profoundly altered the relationships
amongst artists, gallerists, and collectors.
The panel will explore and critique the impacts and challenges – legal, ethical and business – of the rise of art fairs. This is part of an initiative to create dialogue amongst lawyers, artists and emerging and established art professionals working in the primary or secondary markets.
