Art Markets & the World in Transition: Frameworks Shaping Global Collecting
A timely conversation on shifting markets, legal change, and the future of collecting worldwide.
The global art market is navigating one of its most turbulent periods in recent memory. Geopolitical uncertainty, shifting tax and tariff landscapes, and changes in collector interests are fundamentally reshaping where, how, and why art changes hands. Against this backdrop, the legal and advisory frameworks governing the market have never mattered more.
The conversation will also turn to the future of collecting itself: how to attract new audiences, provide them with trusted tools, and encourage participation in a vibrant international art market. Timely, practical, and candid, this talk is designed for collectors, advisors, gallerists, artists, and anyone with a stake in the art market’s next chapter.
We are delighted to be joined by the following leading voices from across the art world:
Thomas Stauffer (Switzerland)– President, Swiss Art Trading Association
Alana Kushnir (Australia)– Founder, Aurelian Lawyers & Advisers
Will Korner (UK / Netherlands)– Head of Fairs, TEFAF
Stefan Puttaert (Switzerland)– CEO, Nicola Erni Collection
Pascal Robert (Switzerland)– Founder, Pascal Robert Gallery
The panel will be moderated by Irina Tarsis, Founder and Managing Director of the Center for Art Law.
We look forward to welcoming you at Landesmuseum on June 13th!
