On Friday, February 21, the Kernochan Center hosted the 2025 Art Law Symposium — The New Deal in Art: Structuring Agreements for a Billion-Dollar Industry, bringing together artists, collectors, dealers, museum administrators and attorneys to discuss how contracts, once shied away from, are now not only more prevalent but evolving to adapt to a changing art market. The Symposium was an examination of what stakeholders are looking for in these documents, and how (and if) legal agreements are a solution in an industry adapting to the new ways art is created, bought, and sold.
The Symposium was recorded, and the video is now available. Please click the thumbnail images above to watch.
