Art and cultural property law - General
We are delighted to see once more our chapter Belgium published in the third edition of The Art Collecting Legal Handbook, which is out since December 2023.
The Art Collecting Legal Handbook
Third Edition
Edited by Bruno W. Boesch and Massimo Sterpi
The Art Collecting Legal Handbook, now in its third edition, is a cross-border legal guide to the ever-changing maze of rules and regulations when acquiring, moving, and sharing works of art and antiquities.
This new edition has been thoroughly revised and updated, and features three thematic chapters which analyse recent market trends, the development of NFTs and their reception in the art market, and the application of indirect tax. Subsequent, national chapters cover topics such as legal remedies against fakes, forgeries and counterfeits, import and export restrictions, sanctions and the rules and practices of cultural institutions and museums. With contributions from leading experts in the field, the Handbook examines the legal framework governing the collection, preservation, and promotion of cultural goods of over 25 countries around the world, written in a user-friendly question-and-answer format which allows for easy cross-jurisdictional reference.
