- Title
The private art collections.

- Abstract
The UNIDROIT Convention confers to private collectors the active legal right to claim, within international jurisdictions, the return of stolen cultural objects. Through these means, the UNIDROIT Convention opened a space of cultural freedom that should be developed. It is now important to root this cultural freedom in a social realm and UNIDROIT should undertake this task. A comparative study of different legal systems proves that there in not a specific legally recognised regime for private collections and less so for contemporary art. Some provisions, although they exist, are completely dispersed.
