connection with France. Fournol & Associ\u00e9s also has particular experience of cross-border matters and coordinates with trusted local counsel whenever advice under another jurisdiction is required.<\/p>\n

As a French law firm specialising in copyright and art market law, we advise French and international clients on the legal, financial and strategic issues surrounding artistic creation and its legacy.<\/p>\n

Agreements with galleries and professional partners, the protection of moral rights, public and private commissions, collaborations with brands and luxury houses, international projects including biennials and exhibitions abroad, the organisation of an artist\u2019s estate, the establishment of an artist committee, authentication, catalogues raisonn\u00e9s, disputes between heirs, copyright infringement, claims for the return of works and art market litigation: the Firm acts in both advisory and contentious matters, combining legal rigour and strategic clarity with close attention to reputation, scholarly integrity and the long-term value of the artist\u2019s work.<\/p>\n

An artist\u2019s work is not an ordinary asset. It encompasses a name, a body of work, archives, moral rights, economic rights, a creative history and, frequently, a responsibility for the preservation of that legacy for future generations. Its management requires an integrated command of copyright, contract law, inheritance and estate law, taxation and art market litigation.[\/nectar_responsive_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_background” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”custom” column_margin_custom=”7%” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” bg_color=”#223466″ scene_position=”center” top_padding=”8%” constrain_group_1=”yes” bottom_padding=”8%” left_padding_desktop=”5%” right_padding_desktop=”5%” left_padding_tablet=”4%” constrain_group_4=”yes” right_padding_tablet=”4%” left_padding_phone=”3%” constrain_group_6=”yes” right_padding_phone=”3%” text_color=”light” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” row_position_desktop=”default” row_position_tablet=”inherit” row_position_phone=”inherit” overflow=”visible” id=”nos-services” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” gradient_type=”default” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/3″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” column_padding_type=”default” gradient_type=”default” content_layout=”default”][split_line_heading line_reveal_by_space_text_effect=”none” font_style=”h2″ mobile_disable_animation=”true” font_size_max=”34px” content_alignment=”default” mobile_content_alignment=”inherit” animation_type=”line-reveal-by-space” link_target=”_self” text_content=”Our Services for Artists and Artist Estates” font_size=”2.1vw” font_size_tablet=”4vw” font_size_phone=”5.4vw” text_direction=”default” font_line_height=”1.1″][\/split_line_heading][\/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”2\/3″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” column_padding_type=”default” content_layout=”default” gradient_type=”default”][vc_row_inner equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”top” column_margin=”custom” column_margin_custom=”3%” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” text_align=”left” row_position=”default” row_position_tablet=”inherit” row_position_phone=”inherit” overflow=”visible” pointer_events=”all”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”5px” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” overflow=”visible” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” column_padding_type=”default” gradient_type=”default” content_layout=”default”][fancy_box box_style=”color_box_basic” icon_family=”custom” custom_icon_image=”80″ box_color=”#222F59″ content_color=”#FFFFFF” box_color_opacity=”1″ box_alignment=”left” border_radius=”none” image_loading=”default” min_height=”90″ link_url=”https:\/\/fournol-associes.com\/secteurs\/artistes-et-successions-d-artistes\/conseil-aux-artistes\/” icon_size=”35px” link_screen_reader=”Conseil aux artistes”]\n

An artist may be represented by galleries in several countries, an estate may be administered abroad while works are sold or exhibited in France, and disputes concerning copyright, authenticity, ownership or contractual relationships may involve several legal systems.<\/p>\n

Foreign clients may instruct the Firm directly, whether or not they maintain a permanent presence in France.<\/p>\n

    The Firm has developed particular experience in cross-border matters involving European and international art-market participants. We advise foreign artists, estates, galleries and other art-market participants on transactions, contractual relationships and disputes governed by French law or involving works, institutions, counterparties, courts or authorities located in France. Where advice or representation under another jurisdiction’s law is required, we coordinate with trusted foreign counsel while maintaining a coherent overall strategy.<\/p>\n

    Our international work also includes artistic commissions and exhibitions in the Gulf, including the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia; foreign artist estates whose works circulate on the French market; multi-jurisdictional disputes between heirs and rights holders; the negotiation of cross-border gallery and licensing agreements; and the enforcement of copyright and moral rights in France on behalf of foreign clients.<\/p>\n

    The Firm works in English and regularly coordinates with foreign lawyers, estate representatives, galleries, museums, foundations, researchers, experts, tax advisers and other professional advisers. This coordinated approach enables clients to address the legal, artistic, tax and reputational dimensions of an international matter through a single and consistent strategy.[\/nectar_responsive_text][divider line_type=”Full Width Line” line_thickness=”1″ divider_color=”accent-color” divider_opacity=”10″ custom_height=”100px”][split_line_heading line_reveal_by_space_text_effect=”none” font_style=”h2″ mobile_disable_animation=”true” font_size_max=”34px” content_alignment=”default” mobile_content_alignment=”inherit” animation_type=”line-reveal-by-space” link_target=”_self” text_content=”Instructing the Firm from Abroad” font_size=”2.1vw” font_size_tablet=”4vw” font_size_phone=”5.4vw” text_direction=”default” font_line_height=”1.1″][\/split_line_heading][nectar_responsive_text inherited_font_style=”default” font_size_min=”19px” font_size_max=”20px” text_direction=”default” font_size_desktop=”20px” font_line_height=”150%” font_size_tablet=”20px” font_size_phone=”19px” class_name=”custom-list”]Foreign artists, heirs, rights holders and artist estates may instruct Fournol & Associ\u00e9s directly on matters governed by French law or requiring advice or representation in France.
