Sommario/riassunto

Art Law provides a dynamic survey of topical legal and ethical issues that confront museums that acquire and display art, auction houses that sell art, libraries that exhibit art, foundations that support artists, and artists that create art. This concise book is written as a tool for art educators, museum studies students, art law and business programs, and artists looking for clear and readable descriptions and answers to the relevant legal issues facing the art world community.
