After more than 15 years the German lawyers of this 85 year old organisation had the honor to welcome more than 1000 lawyers from all over the world for the 56th congress last weekend in Germany and in one of the most well-known and beautiful German cities - Dresden. My hometown!If somebody would have told me 25 years ago that I would give in 2012 a talk as Vice-President of the UIA Art Law Commission to lawyers from UK, USA, France, Italy, Switzerland......I have to admit: it was a strong moment for me. Art Law and Dresden - what an excellent combination.Therefore the board of the Art Law Commission had chosen a topic that combined questions of the past as well as present devellopments and questions of preservations and investments in the future: Art as an Asset - What your clients need to know about collecting, transacting and investing in art

In the midst of the worldwide recession, art sales continue to produce record prices, attracting the interest of the lawyer's clients who are long-term collectors as well as those who are looking for alternative investments. As a unique asset class, however, art presents special issues and opportunities, with which lawyers must familiarize themselves in order to provide the best counsel to their clients. Among the broad range of critical art law issues that the speakers did address: fakes and forgeries, stolen art, misattribution, art financing, art investment funds, shipping and storage issues, protecting against creditors’ claims, loan exhibitions, insurance and appraisals.
 
speakers: Lawrence M. Kaye (USA), Gregor Kleinknecht (UK), Andrea Pizzi (Italy), Steven Brodie (USA), Howard Spiegler (President Art Law Commission, USA), Claudia von Selle (Germany)
