About this badge
Time-honored art galleries are involved in fraud; unscrupulous artists create forgeries; archeological artifacts are plundered and smuggled cross borders; and cultural institutions harbor stolen art. The art market's global reach and history-making profits have helped to fuel the international movement in unlawful trade of art and cultural artifacts. What is the solution? In its third year, this annual symposium provides a forum for cultural policy exchange, engaging international professionals who are working to develop solutions for this worldwide issue. Join faculty and legal experts from NYU School of Law; international law firms; the U.S. Departments of Homeland Security and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE); major museums, auction houses, and galleries; as well as independent scholars and authors; art crime victims and perpetrators; and forensic scientists.
