NEW BABYLON by CONSTANT

Van der Steenhoven advocaten is a Dutch law firm, which is very much invested in copyright law and Volgrecht (Resale right). Last year they organised a Client Class to inform and discuss Resale right (Volgrecht). At the time of the Client Class there was a lawsuit pending between Pictoright, which manages the copyrights and resale rights for artists, and an art dealer who refused to give Pictoright information on what works he sold.

As of today it is possible to search on our website for art works from a specific collection: stichtingconstant.nl/work
One can now easily search for Constant's works in museums by just putting the name of the museum/collection in the search box and click search! Keep in mind that most private collectors want to remain anonymous and are therefore indicates as private collection.

Constant, Lijn zonder einde, 1958
The news that Galerie BORZO has been accepted to bring a solo presentation/feature to Art Basel 2015 is cause for celebration! Some say it's easier to get a meeting with the pope than to get a slot at Art Basel as a gallery.
