Images Andy Warhol created of Prince, using a black-and-white portrait by Lynn Goldsmith as a reference, are at the heart of a case before the Supreme Court. The ruling could have rippling consequences for the art world. n.pr/3CUUJDO
@NPR Wasn't this solved with the "sampling" movement in creative music?
@NPR I'm with the original photographer. They should have known better to not copy her image
@NPR Laches (and acquiescence)!! This case doesn’t belong in court. The issue may be unsettled, but this isn’t the right case. “Orange Prince” was created in 1984! The 📷©️ holder either knew or should have known of its existence for a period of time longer than the SoL ⏰
@NPR I can think of few other places where this supreme court least belongs. #NoConfidence
@NPR Didn't Shepard Fairey have a similar issue with his Obama "Hope" painting?
@NPR Definitely want to hear Norman Lear’s take on his demise!
@NPR Im with photographer. Although I think the contract with VF should also be understood, but to me it sounds like VF never told photographer about transformative or reproductive uses.
@NPR Does this have significance in the whole "Who gets paid for AI art?" controversy?
