Katie and Steve speak with renowned German art lawyer Dr. Katharina Garbers-von Boehm about the law of title in Germany as it applies to art, including the concepts of good and bad faith in considering ownership, the legal primacy of possession, and the doctrine of adverse possession that allows possessors of stolen property, like Nazi-looted art, to take good title after a certain number of years.

Since the Second Nagorno-Karabakh War in 2020, reports of crimes against Armenian cultural heritage in the territory have emerged. After Azerbaijan assumed control over Nagorno-Karabakh following a military offensive in October 2023 and the mass expulsion of the region's ethnic Armenian population, concerns of heritage abuse have intensified. Crimes against cultural heritage gained infamy in recent years with the plundering of ancient sites in Iraq and Syria yet reports of the attempted erasure of Armenian cultural heritage in both Nagorno-Karabakh and Nakhchivan have not received global attention. In this panel, two experts discuss abuses of cultural heritage in general and, specifically, the alleged or potential destruction of Armenian cultural heritage following the assertion of Azerbaijani control over Nagorno-Karabakh. About the Speakers: Derek Fincham is a Professor at the South Texas College of Law Houston, where he teaches Legal Research and Writing and Art Law. Dr Fincham serves on the Editorial Board of the International Journal of Cultural Property and runs the Illicit Cultural Property Blog. Lori Khatchadourian is Associate Professor of Near Eastern Studies and Anthropology at Cornell University, and co-founder and co-director of Caucasus Heritage Watch. Her research uses the methods of archaeology and anthropology to study heritage politics and the ruins of modernity, with a particular focus on the South Caucasus.

According to the Georgetown Law Library, Art Law can be defined as “the body of law, involving numerous disciplines, that protects, regulates and facilitates the creation, use and marketing of art. Those involved in the practice of art law look to a variety of disciplines, such as intellectual property, contract, constitutional, tort, tax, commercial and international law to protect the interests of their clients.” In this episode, host Craig Williams is joined by guests, attorneys Gabrielle C. Wilson & Yaél M. Weitz from Kaye Spiegler, as they spotlight art law. They will discuss the emerging trend of colonial art restitution, stolen and misappropriated art, and how AI has impacted art and copyright law.

Many have called for AI regulation, but existing IP laws already apply to generative AI because they protect the original works of authorship used to train foundational models. In this conversation moderated by Foundry Fellow Ekene Chuks-Okeke, IP experts Elena Gurevich (Center for Art Law, EG Legal Services) Franklin Graves (HCA Healthcare, Creator Economy Law) and Juyoun Han (Eisenberg & Baum, LLP) discuss the relationship between copyright and AI, artists perspectives, nuances of pending litigation, current guidance from the US Copyright Office, and how the values of artists and creatives in the marketplace can and will shape the future of generative AI.

In this episode of ‘Law, disrupted,' John is joined by Luke Nikas, partner in Quinn Emanuel's New York office. Luke is widely recognized as one of the top lawyers in the US and has been selected as a Law360 MVP, is Band 1 rated in Chambers, and has been named among Lawdragon's 500 Leading Lawyers in America. He is also co-chair of the firm's Art Litigation and Disputes Practice and probably has the world's most prominent and successful art litigation practice. Together, they discuss the intersection between art, the law, and art disputes more generally.The conversation begins with John asking Luke whether there is such a thing as “art law” – Luke notes that there is such a thing—there are specific, narrow statutes that touch on art but for the most part, art law is a composite of several other areas of law that might apply to any dispute. Most art law cases concern legal principles, such as contracts, intellectual property, fiduciary duty and the like, which happen to arise in the context of a dispute involving art. Together, they discuss the Knoedler Art Gallery case that was litigated from about 2011-2018 – a lawsuit that involved what Luke describes as “one of the most prominent art galleries in the world” before it closed. Luke represented the President of the gallery, and a film was made about the episode. They emphasize the legal and factual issues that surround authenticity disputes.They move on to discuss copyright and fair use matters, including the importance of a copyright case involving Andy Warhol's work, presently pending before the United States Supreme Court. These types of cases raise important issues about what material we're trying to protect and why, and how we can develop judicially manageable standards to resolve fair use disputes when the decision-makers are not visual art experts. For example, when evaluating two artworks in a copyright infringement case, what weight do we place on the meaning, message, and visual appearances of the works at issue?John and Luke also examine the relationship between collectors, dealers, gallerists and art advisors. These relationships can create obligations and expectations between parties that translate into fiduciary and other legal duties that the gallery or advisor wasn't anticipating.  Luke discusses how to protect against these situations so that everyone involved has a clear understanding of the scope of the relationship.

All rights reserved.Peggy Cooper Cafritz grew up in Mobile, Alabama under Jim Crow laws during the days of racial segregation in the Southern United States of America. She moved to Washington, DC in 1964 to attend college at The George Washington University, where she was instrumental in creating organizations for Black students on campus. Continuing her education at George Washington University Law School, she graduated with her Juris Doctor degree in 1971. Cafritz was significantly involved in the arts community while she was a student, serving on boards, chairing committees, and planning several festivals in the nation's capital. However, Cafritz solidified her support for the arts when she co-founded the Duke Ellington School of the Arts, a public high school located in Washington, DC that focuses on arts education. Throughout her lifetime, Cafritz developed an extensive art collection primarily of works by artists of African descent as a means to address the absence and confront the erasure of Black history in the United States. She passed away in 2018, gifting portions of her art collection between the Duke Ellington School of the Arts in DC and the Studio Museum in Harlem, NY. To view rewards for supporting the podcast, please visit Warfare's Patreon page.To leave questions or comments about this or other episodes of the podcast, please call 1.929.260.4942 or email Stephanie@warfareofartandlaw.com. © Stephanie Drawdy [2022]

From forgery schemes to Nazi-looted art to patrimony laws to sanctions on Russian oligarchs, Steven Schindler has seen it all. As the leader of Schindler, Cohen & Hochman's art law group, he proves that one interesting client can propel you to a niche practice area that shapes the rest of your career.Steve joined a large firm after law school and focused on commercial litigation and trials. After later starting a firm with two colleagues, his work on an art-related dispute piqued his interest in art law as a practice area. The field was wide open. Steve dove in, researched, wrote articles for law journals, and became a sought-after speaker on the subject. Along the way, he has handled everything from title contests to fraud, challenges to authenticity and provenances, restitution for stolen art, and various transactions for the purchase, sale, and commission of fine art and NFTs. Listen in as this Sticky Lawyer describes how a life-long appreciation took him from one legal career canvas to another.

How has a small peasant woman with rudimentary art supplies and childlike paintings of fantastical beasts forced the world to acknowledge the absurdity of war? Ukrainian folk artist MARIA PRYMACHENKO  (1908-1997) —dubbed the People's Artist of Ukraine—produced hundreds of small, colorful gouache paintings of imaginary creatures, flowers and village scenes filled with traditional Ukrainian decorative patterns that captured the heart and soul of a nation. In this ARTish Words episode, we discuss why the recent Russian bombing of a small art museum that housed some of Maria's works has unified resistance, why art matters in this moment, and what efforts are being made to protect artworks like Maria's.Find  Maria:UATV Virtual Museum Tour of Maria Prymachenko work and life / UATV is the Ukrainian state foreign language broadcaster providing international audiences with news from Ukraine (watch three-part series) Prymachenko Family Foundation (follow) Rug Your Life + Prymachenko Family Foundation Collaboration (support) PPARTEM + Prymachenko Family Foundation Hoodie Collaboration (support) Center for Art Law, (learn) Learn More About Maria and Current Ukrainian Crisis:Ukrainian Artist Maria Prymachenko's Fantastical Visions Have Captivated the World—Here Are 3 Key Insights Into Her Life and Work, Artnet News  (read)  Artworks of Ukrainian Folk Artist Maria Prymachenko Reportedly Burned During Russian Invasion, by  Madeleine Muzdakis on My Modern Met, March 3, 2022 (read) https://mymodernmet.com/ukrainian-folk-maria-prymachenko/  Flowers for Peace: The Spirited Art of Ukrainian Artist Maria Prymachenko That is Now Becoming a Symbol of Hope, by Shira Wolfe on Artland (read) How Ukrainians are desperately fighting to protect their cultural heritage amid an invasion, by Rupendra Brahambhatt on DME Science  (read) ‘All art must go underground:' Ukraine scrambles to shield its cultural heritage, Washington Post, by Max Bearak and Isabelle Khurshudyan , March 14, 2022  (read) Under threat of Russian bombs, Lviv hides away its priceless heritage, by Joel Hunter on BBC News  (read) Support Efforts / How You Can Help:Overview of General Ukrainian Relief Efforts, compiled by NPR (learn) Links for Emergency Efforts to Support Ukrainian Artists, including emergency housing, studio space, art relocation (learn) SUCHO (Saving Ukrainian Cultural Heritage Online) /  cultural heritage professionals – librarians, archivists, researchers, programSupport the show (https://www.buymeacoffee.com/artishplunge)
