As reported before Christmas, these are just some of the questions to be debated on January 29 in a one-day conference that brings together the leading professional bodies, experts and higher education institutions. The conference, which is being sponsored by the Antiques Trade Gazette, has been organised by Drummond Read, the fine art recruitment consultancy, in response to growing concern over the future of professional standards and qualifications in the industry.
With all the leading bodies involved, the conference provides a unique opportunity to hear the full range of opinion and debate the questions that go to the heart of the issues raised.
The cost of attending the conference is £100 plus VAT to include refreshments, luncheon and an evening drinks reception. A limited number of tables are available for marketing. For full details of the conference, ring Drummond Read on 0870 241 2660.

Does the fine arts business warrant professional qualifications? What form should the education take? Should there be only one body representing the profession or several representing different aspects?
