Legal Issues Arising in a “Down” Art Market

Rob Feinstein will be part of  this presentation at New York University addressing “important practical and legal issues that arise when prices are falling and the economy is difficult. In light of recent bankruptcies and uncertainty across all markets, what protection is there for buyers, sellers, and appraisers? How can a collector guard against fakes? What are safe borrowing and lending practices? From when to file a UCC to what do in the even the worst case scenario (Salander-O’Reilly or the “Bernie Madoff” of art dealers, Michel Cohen), this is a practical presentation on issues of concern to all.”
