Art Lawyers Association podcast
Welcome to the Art Lawyers Association Podcast, a podcast that is dedicated to the discussion of the interesting issues, quirks, stories, rumours and, yes, legal cases that have arisen, or which remain current issues in the Art World, and which we lucky lawyers, very often are asked to try to resolve. The Art World is truly a wonderful place to work in, and it is filled with all of the great attributes good stories need, wealth, beauty, honesty and dishonesty - and it is inhabited by by some similarly colourful characters, some of whom we are looking forward to introducing you to over the course of the next few months and weeks.

A discussion of one of the art world's greatest debates, by two of the foremost authorities on the subject, that is - regarding the history and rightful ownership of the Parthenon or "Elgin" Marbles. Mark Stephens CBE interviews Alexander Herman about his recent book on the subject, published late last year "The Parthenon Marbles Dispute", which offers a fresh take on the history of those famous works of ancient sculpture which once adorned the Parthenon Temple on the Acropolis, but which now, to the dismay of some, sit within the British Museum.
