A talk with Elena M. Paul, Esq. from Volunteer Lawyers for the Arts regarding copyright issues. 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 practice and the presentation of their art work. The talk will focus on copyright law, with a primer on some of the more pressing legal concerns for artists today, such as digital media, the use of appropriated logos and images, fair use, as well as moral rights. She will also discuss the legal issues related to blogs, websites, and website aggregators. Free.
