ART MANAGEMENT

Whilst art appreciation is vital for those who work for collectors, they also need to be able to manage art collections. Our Art Management course is perfect for anyone working for an art collector or new to the art world so this cultural heritage can be preserved. This involves an understanding of the art collector and art collecting as well as an overview of the art market in which they operate.

In just one day, you can unlock the inner workings of the art world. We teach the practical care and handling of valuable objects along with the full scope of collectors’ services.

Following successful course completion delegates receive a certificate to demonstrate to future employers that they understand the important aspects of working with art portfolios, that they understand the processes, the vocabulary and characteristics of the sector.

You will also learn where and how to secure the most reliable resources in the art world and where to go to find the right services to support daily operations. The curriculum includes 6 modules: Logistics, Exporting and art handling, Environmental risks, Media & materials, Framing, Copyright Issues, Art forensics and Insurance.

NEW: EU Cultural Goods Act Workshop 2025

There are a number of regulatory requirements to be observed with fine art and cultural objects moving between borders. These include laws relating to the movement of certain materials used in artefacts, movement of valuable objects deemed of cultural importance to a nation and the movement of fine art and artefacts which might have been stolen, looted or illegally exported from the country of origin.

Once such regulation is the new cultural goods act which has been passed as law and will be implemented in 2025.  We are now conducting a workshop and lectures on the new EU Regulation 2019/880 and its impact of artefacts on board superyachts in international waters.  This regulation presents a risk for those responsible for the art collection in that objects may be seized by Customs Officers depending on their status, or perceived status. 

The intention is to prevent illicit trafficking of recently excavated archaeological artefacts, however it was extended during the consultation period to include a vast range of additional objects .

Pandora Art Services training offers an insightful background and useful introduction to the act and the consequences for yacht managers, captains, owners and owners representatives.  Additionally, participants receive an explanation as to the types of objects affected and the penalties for infringement.  Red flag items are covered and the origin territories which specifically apply. 

The one-hour lecture covers the basics. The half day workshop offers more thorough practical support with reference material tools and tips to assist delegates with assessing their art on board and flagging objects of risk and navigating the compliance process. Pandora Art Services is also available to assist with onboard training and to conduct a survey of hazardous objects, advice for Captains and Pursers and a record of related documentation.

To be noted: The cultural goods regulation comes with criminal penalties which include prosecution for smuggling and in some cases fraudulent practice.
