Master of Law (LL.M.) in Art Law

Art Law is a constantly evolving field that addresses all issues related to the legal treatment of artworks and the regulation of the art sector. From the protection and preservation of cultural heritage, where Italy has been a pioneer and remains a world leader, to the regulation of the global art market, there are plenty of legal challenges to tackle. Therefore, collectors, investors, museums, and other institutions are increasingly seeking legal specialists with a highly qualified background in Art Law. These professionals can assist them in the most delicate matters related to the management of artworks and the resolution of disputes arising from breaches of art loan or exhibition agreements, as well as from violations of national, supranational, and international norms governing the protection of cultural heritage.

The Luiss Master in Art Law (LL.M.) comprehensively addresses all the various legal issues involved in the overall regulation of the art sector. Through classes, workshops, case studies, seminars, and conferences, along with direct contact with art specialist lawyers, art industry experts, consultants, and academics, the Master in Art Law (LL.M.) fosters the development of professional competencies and personal skills, preparing participants for numerous career opportunities.

The Program consists of seven modules, as described below:

• The Artwork and Its Protection
• The Circulation of Artworks
• Art Trade and the Commercial Exploitation of Artworks
• Exhibitions and Collecting
• The Circulation and Protection of Artworks in International Law
• The Circulation and Protection of Artworks in European Law
