Dr. Boll will delve into his new book\, ‘Art And Its Market\,’ discussing restitution complexities\, emerging trends\, and paradigm shifts.  \nOver the past two years\, structural changes in the art market have accelerated considerably. From virtual viewing rooms and private sales to new distribution channels\, the pandemic and increased digitization have had all-encompassing and lasting effects. With 25 years of experience at the forefront of the art industry\, Dirk Boll\, offers insights into the latest developments and dynamics\, as well as profound background knowledge. \n\nWhere to start as someone who is interested in buying art?\nWhat distinguishes the Dutch from the English auction?\nWhat role does art criticism play in the canonization of art?\n\nBoll\, who studied law\, also sheds light on the legal framework surrounding acquisition and the highly relevant topic of looted art and its restitution. \nBios \nProf. Dr. Dirk Boll studied law in Göttingen and Freiburg (Br.) and had his judicial traineeship at the Higher Court in Stuttgart and the German Chamber of Commerce in Brussels.
