3rd 'Moving Art' Seminar: 'The challenges facing Artists' Estates'
British-Swiss Chamber of Commerce
Collyer Bristow, 4 Bedford Row, London WC1R 4TF

With speaker Dr. Loretta Würtenberger the Founder & Director of The Institute for Artists’ Estates on the topic "The challenges facing Artists' Estates"

Andy Warhol said, “Death can really make you look like a star.” 

But death does not necessarily secure the posthumous relevance of an artist. For that an active work with the estate is necessary. An artist’s estate is successful when it is able to keep the work alive: when subsequent generations of artists draw inspiration from it and when curators, researchers, and collectors continuously find new ways to approach the artists’ oeuvre. The talk by Dr. Loretta Würtenberger will reflect on these aspects and point out the steps widows, children and other responsible for an artist’s estates can take to achieve the goal of keeping the work alive after the artist is gone. 

Guests will also be able to view the current exhibition 'Make_Shift' in the Collyer Bristow Art Gallery who are very happy to continue to support the BSCC's Moving Art Series.
