CONF: Transport, assurance, importation, exportation, ports francs (Geneva, 22 Nov, 17)

Published on by Art Market Studies

The art market continues to grow and internationalize. Thus, the transactions of art markets generally cross the borders of countries. Behind the scenes of this market, a large number of actors are operating. They provide for transportation, storage and insurance of works of art.

This conference aims to examine
the contractual aspects of these operations and the responsibility of its actors.
In addition, it is interested in the new governance of the free ports of Geneva, the import and export of works of art as well as the customs procedures and operations.
