The activity of artistic agent, whether it is exercised under the name of impresario, manager or under any other name, consists of receiving a mandate for consideration from one or more performing artists for the purpose of placing and representing their professional interests.
A Conseil d’Etat decree sets out the terms of the written mandate referred to in the first paragraph and the respective obligations of the parties.
No person may act as an artistic agent if he or she is, directly or through an intermediary, a producer of cinematographic or audiovisual works.
