Legal protection for valuable cultural assets
Art is more than just a cultural asset - it is an expression of social and historical developments, an investment object and an economic success factor at the same time. The purchase, sale, digitization and exploitation of works of art therefore pose high and increasingly complex legal challenges for artists, collectors, galleries, auction houses, foundations, museums and other art-related institutions. Especially in an international market characterized by rapidly changing legal frameworks, new technologies and growing compliance expectations, professional legal advice is becoming increasingly important.
The law firm GIBEL ZIRM attorneys at law supports you with in-depth expertise in Art Law - both nationally and internationally. Our lawyers have many years of experience in assisting with art transactions and provide you with comprehensive advice on structuring, reviewing and documenting art-related legal transactions. We draft and negotiate tailor-made contracts, carry out due diligence and represent your interests in contentious proceedings with the necessary sensitivity for artistic values and market realities. Through our understanding of both the creative processes and the economic mechanisms of the art market, we offer you legal solutions that protect substance, open up opportunities and minimize risks.
