Gitti Hug
Life, art and law have one thing in common: They should be colorful.
Gitti Hug focuses on intellectual property law, specifically on the areas of copyright, media and trademark law, and is a recognized expert in the international art market. Her other passion is for charitable organizations, where she advises and manages various projects and institutions.
She regularly publishes in these fields, and is a co-author of the Copyright Act Commentary (Stämpfli Handkommentar, 2. ed. 2012) as well as the textbook and practice guide “Kulturrecht – Kulturmarkt” (DIKE 2012).
