미술진흥법 제15조 제6항의 감정서 발급 의무에 대한 검토 -감정서 작성 사항을 중심으로-

The issue of art appraisal has been drifting for a long time, with various controversies such as distrust of the appraisal results due to the lack of objective appraisal standards and the issuance of appraisal documents without rationals to support the appraisal results. Under these circumstances, art appraisers must issue an appraisal report in accordance with the form determined and announced by the Minister of Culture, Sports and Tourism in accordance with the enactment of the Art Promotion Act, and an appraisal report should include grounds for logically and objectively supporting the appraisal results. However, the Art Promotion Act only stipulates that art appraisers must issue appraisal documents according to the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism’s notice, but does not address basic matters that must be included in an appraisal report. Accordingly, this paper intends to review legal system and current domestic and international situation surrounding issuance of appraisal report especially in the context of the objectivity that has long caused controversy, and proposes improvement measures to secure the objectivity and public confidence of appraisal results, focusing on the contents that should be included in the appraisal report issued by art appraisers under the Art Promotion Act. Considering that appraisal of market value of artworks is not simply an area of ​​the private art market but plays a role as public goods, standards of professional appraisal practice for the establishment of systematic and objective art appraisal procedures should be established.
