Details

Since its first publication in 1979, Law, Ethics and the Visual Arts has become a foundational text in the field of art law. This thoroughly reorganized and updated sixth edition takes a fresh look at primary materials and commentary from previous editions and extends the book's analysis with significant changes in format and content to reflect changes in the field. The book provides students and scholars with an accessible set of materials that describe and explain the most important legal and ethical issues confronting artists, collectors, and dealers in today's complex, international art markets. Chapters cover key international treaties, federal and state statutes, judicial opinions, and excerpts from scholarly and other media publications at the intersections of art and law.
