Pulse New York

Date Thur 3 May 2012 - Sun 6 May 2012

 MAY 16, 2011. PULSE Contemporary Art Fair has announced that PULSE New York 2012 will take place from May 3 through May 6, returning for a second year to its Metropolitan Pavilion home in the heart of Chelsea. The decision was made by Cornell DeWitt, the Director of PULSE Contemporary Art Fair, stating that "Since PULSEʼs founding there has been a perennial challenge in staging our New York fair in a relatively short time after our Miami fair in December. While I am extremely proud of everything we accomplished in New York in 2011, having an extra two months will give us an even greater opportunity to deliver the exceptional fair that our exhibitors and guests have come to expect from us."

and fighting illicit trafficking in cultural goods. It outlined existing loopholes
in EU law and policy and formulated 33 recommendation

- Increased Responsibilities for the Art Market

- Tools for Detection, Investigation and Prosecution

- The Future of Regulatory Standards at EU Level
