JEFF KOONS WINS APPEAL IN COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT CASE

A recent federal appeals court decision saw Jeff Koons win a copyright infringement case regarding his "Made in Heaven" series against artist Michael Hayden. Koons prevailed because Hayden was found to have waited too long to file his suit. For emerging women artists, this ruling is a potent reminder: protecting your artistic intellectual property requires timely action. Understanding your rights and acting swiftly to address any perceived infringement is critical. Delays can undermine even valid claims, underscoring the necessity for vigilance and prompt legal consultation from the outset of your career. — Source: Artforum
