• Preserving What Artists Leave Behind with Joy Glidden

  Host Caryn Keppler, a trusts and estates attorney with Offit Kurman, welcomes Joy Glidden, founding director of the Center for the Preservation of Artist Legacies (CPAL), for a wide-ranging conversation on what it truly means to preserve an artist's life work. Joy shares the 35-year journey that led her to form CPAL as an official 501(c)(3) in 2022, and why the latter part of an artist's career has long been overlooked by funders and the broader arts community. From the real costs of legacy planning to the practical first steps every artist should take, Joy offers frank guidance on documentation, archiving, estate structures, and the hard truth that family members rarely step in to handle it. She also previews CPAL's upcoming three-day conference and describes the organization's new 10,000-square-foot space in New York's Financial District, which it is developing as a first-of-its-kind hub for cross-merging multiple artist legacies under one roof.

This wide‑ranging discussion also tackles timely issues facing artists, collectors, and estate planners alike, including the Great American Wealth Transfer, intergenerational stewardship of art collections, market misconceptions, and the role of auctions in building — and preserving — artistic and financial legacies.
