Art Meets Law is a blog dedicated to the most noteworthy legal developments affecting the global art market today and in particular London and New York. Now that the author is permanently based in London (and given the dearth of art law blogs this side of the Atlantic), the focus will be primarily on English rather than New York law. Areas covered range from commercial contracts, consignments to auction, art investment funds, loans against art, artists' rights (copyright, droit de suite, moral rights), import and export and taxation, among others, but always with the following aim in mind: to cater to the interests and concerns of market participants transacting in art, whether on the buy-side or the sale-side.



The blog also features a series of posts titled "ART PICK OF THE MONTH" where the author reviews an exhibition, book or other artistic expression considered to be the highlight of that month.
