An afternoon of ‘Art on the Move’ at Maurice Turnor Gardner
Posted on: June 25, 2019 by Julia Rodrigues Casella Hommes
Last Wednesday, the Institute of Art & Law together with Maurice Turnor Gardner hosted a number of talks and panels on the topic of ‘art on the move’ and the legal issues involved from title and export controls to bailment and the impact of Brexit.
Speaking to a packed room, MTG’s and IAL’s teams were joined by guest speakers from the Arts Council England (Anastasia Tennant), the Victoria & Albert Museum (Nickos Gogolos), as well as 5 Stone Buildings Barrister Chambers (Luke Harris).
Aside from discussing cutting-edge topics in the various fields, such as the recent DCMS consultation on export controls, to which IAL responded, and the possible implications of Brexit on the notion of frustration of contract, following the pending appeal in Canary Wharf v. European Medicines Agency, guests attending the seminar also had the opportunity to ask a number of questions to the speakers and benefit from their expertise.
