WILIŃSKI LEGAL
A work of art has artistic value, but it is also an object of ownership, transactions, contracts and copyright. In the art market, these legal dimensions frequently overlap.
We advise artists, collectors, owners of artworks, galleries and other participants in the art market.
We advise on creators' rights, permitted uses of works, licences, transfers of rights and copyright infringements.
We assist with sale, consignment, deposit, loan, exhibition and other agreements concerning artworks.
We support clients in matters involving ownership, provenance, liability of sellers and intermediaries, and conflicts connected with art transactions.
We adapt the advisory model to the client's role in the market: protecting an artist's interests is different from protecting those of a collector, gallery or investor.
It should, however, clearly establish who has rights to a work, who may use it and on what terms it may be traded.
