Join art lawyers Jana Slavina Farmer (Partner, Wilson Elser, New
York) and Noor Kadhim (Solicitor Advocate, Arbitrator and Counsel,
Founder of Kadhims, a global legal and advisory consultancy based
in London) for an engaging webinar on the groundbreaking case of
Warhol Foundation v. Goldsmith. Recently decided by the
United States Supreme Court, this appropriation art case has
reconfigured the fair use test under the Copyright Act, a concept
specific to U.S. law. With a focus on whether the follow-on use was
commercial, the decision has left many unanswered questions.
Comparing it to the narrower concept of fair dealing in the UK,
which is limited to non-commercial research, study, criticism,
review or reporting of current events, the panel will delve into
the Warhol decision's implications and discuss how it might
have played out in the UK. Noor Kadhim will provide an invaluable
perspective on the EU side, discussing the implications of the new
EU directive.
The content of this article is intended to provide a general guide to the subject matter. Specialist advice should be sought about your specific circumstances.
