| Event Description |
The San Diego Foundation continues its Business of the Arts Program with a series of workshops on Art and the Law. Sponsored by the Thomas Jefferson School of Law – Arts and Entertainment Law Project, the goal is to introduce professional artists and the organizations that work with them to the common legal issues they may face in their work.
“Intellectual Property Basics: An introduction to Copyrights, Trademarks, and VARA”
Wednesday, August 1, 2012
5:30 – 8:00 pm
With the recent increase in copyright issues and lawsuits, visual and performing artists need to be aware of copyright laws and the legal issues that may affect their business practices and the presentation of their art work. This seminar will focus on copyright law, with a primer on some of the more pressing legal concerns for artists today, such as the distinction between ideas and expression, the use of appropriated images and text, as well as fair use. The presenter will refer to legal cases in order to illustrate key concepts. |
