EVENT DETAIL
Transforming Art: Fair Use Issues
Thursday, November 10, 2005 6-8:45 pm



Contemporary visual artists borrow imagery and subject matter from each other and the world at large, while images of art are also used in advertising, publishing and criticism. Following presentations of both contemporary visual art and relevant law, a distinguished panel explores the issues raised by such uses, with particular regard to the scope of protection afforded by the doctrine of Fair Use.
