Moderator: J. Anthony Baker

Panelists: Bruce Eves, Katharine Harvey, Kal Mansur, Vera Frenkel

 

When artist Sybil Goldstein passed away in 2012, she left behind a remarkable collection of over 1,000 artworks—yet, she did not have a formal estate plan in place. This story highlights a vital, often overlooked aspect of an artist’s career: the importance of planning for the future of their work and legacy.

In the context of the Sybil Goldstein / URBAN MYTHS exhibition, the discussion will explore artists’ current stage(s) of estate planning and will provide practical guidance from the moderator on strategies to preserve, manage, and protect artworks, archives, and legacies.

Topics include:

  • drafting your last will and testament

  • designating an executor

  • storing and distributing artworks (sales, donations, etc.) and personal papers

  • managing copyright and licensing

The moderator and panelists will take questions from the audience.
