ICON PAINTINGS GROUP TALK
Wednesday 29th May 2019, 6-8 pm Tom Flynn and Angelina Giovani will give a talk on: ‘Art Provenance Research Issues and Challenges’ The Robing Room at Freemason's Hall, 60 Great Queen Street WC2B 5AZ. London United Kingdom Provenance has become one of the most talked about issues in the art market, but how rigorously is provenance research being undertaken and by whom? The talk discusses some of the procedures involved in researching the ownership history of works of art for the art trade and private collectors and the unexpected research outcomes from one or two case studies and how conservators can aid the process. Dr Tom Flynn is an art historian and writer with an interest in the professional practices of the global art market, sculpture history and issues in cultural heritage. Angelina Giovani, MA, is an art historian with experience working for the Jeu de Plume (Holocaust assets) database documenting the cultural plunder by the ERR. She previously acted as Head of Provenance Research for a bespoke family office. Freemasons Hall is close to both Covent Garden and Holborn Tube Stations. Doors open at 6pm.
