MUSEUM LOANS
We advise on the lending of works of art to public institutions and museums.
Museum exhibitions can enhance the provenance and value of privately owned works of art.
Museum can provide scholarly details about an artwork.
Works of art accepted under the ‘Conditional Exemption’ scheme are expected to have public access for at least 100 days each year.
Loaning works of art to museums can save on high insurance costs.
Increasingly works are being exhibited for tax purposes. Usually, when shipped to the USA artworks are subject to a use tax. However certain States do not have this tax and after a term in one such State, the artwork can be shipped to the new owner's private residence tax free.
