2006 Exhibition of Sugimoto’s work at the Hirshhorn Museum (Copyright: Hirshhorn Museum) 

Congratulations to our client, Hiroshi Sugimoto. Last week, the Smithsonian Institution broke ground on its new sculpture garden designed by Sugimoto. In attendance was First Lady Jill Biden, in addition to prominent artists, including Jeff Koons and Laurie Anderson. Our client’s project for the Smithsonian is a massive undertaking, revitalizing the Hirshhorn Museum’s Sculpture Garden. The project is anticipated to take at least two years to complete. We had the honor of serving as legal counsel to Sugimoto on this project. We previously served as his legal counsel for the installation of his lobby design at the Hirshhorn Museum, in addition to other notable projects undertaken by the superbly talented artist, photographer, and architect.

We are privileged to have the opportunity to work with talented artists, like Hiroshi Sugimoto, to protect their intellectual property rights and further their artistic visions.
