Yayoi Shionoiri (塩野入 弥生）
I serve as Executive Director to the Estate of Chris Burden and the Studio of Nancy Rubins, where I am responsible for stewarding Burden’s art historical legacy and promoting Rubins’ artistic practice.
As a published specialist on art law, my interdisciplinary academic research on modern and contemporary Japanese art analyzes the effects of legal paradigms on artistic production.
In the past, I have served as General Counsel and Head of Asia Strategy to Artsy, Associate General Counsel of The Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation, and Legal Advisor to Takashi Murakami. I also serve as U.S. Alliance Partner to City Lights Law, a Japanese law firm that represents creators, innovators, and artists.
