 A famous judge once said that it would be a dangerous undertaking for persons trained only to the law to constitute themselves as final judges to the words of pictorial illustrations. Yet, courts and regulators often make some choices that have an aesthetic impact on matters like what is art, who is an author, what is authenticity, what is originality, or what is the copy. Those are some of the questions that we will be discussing during this course and in doing that, we will focus on real disputes with artists like Marina Bromovic, Joseph Boyce, Michel Barcelot and many others. So, if you are interested in how the law shapes artistic practices, you are welcome to join us this next July.
