What is more destru...A really interesting article.<br /><br />What is more destructive to a brands success? Is it the original artwork or is it (as in the case of this article) the reproduction of the images in news articles, blogs and other world wide media?<br /><br />I don't believe that these images would ever have reached my field of vision without your article. Who is responsible for spreading the message?<br /><br />I feel that the artist[s] should be allowed to work with any thought and image that crosses their mind, but the reporting of this work should be restricted in their ability to reproduce the image.Me, An Artist ?http://www.artistnos.co.uknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5574479.post-62588274464229433352011-05-06T08:12:47.352+01:002011-05-06T08:12:47.352+01:00Interesting case.
Beside design rights the artist...Interesting case.<br /><br />Beside design rights the artist also could be sued for trademark infringement in the course of trade, since she tries to sell her art and merchandise which includes Louis Vuitton's trademarked monograms. <br />Using the brand on art, T-shirts and posters results in dilution: killing the brand with a thousand cuts. One can claim also copyright infringement based on the moral right, because Louis Vuitton's work is put in a damaging context.<br /><br />Freedom of expression is a great good, but it should not damage the reputation and goodwill of a brand that has nothing to do with the genocide in Darfur.<br /><br />The artist, Nadia Plesner, is not Dutch, but Danish, although she lives in the Netherlands.IP Dragonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06285334008761103494noreply@blogger.com
