This book tackles the lack of synchronicity between art and copyright law, proposing practical and interdisciplinary tools through which to navigate this conflict.

In the last decades, high profile lawsuits have been filed against artists accused of plagiarism including Jeff Koons, Barbara Kruger and Andy Warhol. This book demonstrates how these cases are at odds with contemporary artistic reality, in which the use of antecedent visual forms is common practice. Focusing on the dichotomies of "original/copy" and of "old/new", this work addresses this phenomenon from both theoretical and legal perspectives. Using Swiss copyright law as the main case study, the book comparatively assesses other international legal frameworks. Through understanding the origins of the conflict between art and copyright, the book highlights solutions to handle copyright cases with a new methodological approach.

The book will be of interest to researchers in the field of art and copyright law, intellectual property and art.

Giulia Walter is a lawyer based in Zurich, Switzerland. She studied law at the universities of Lucerne, Geneva and Vienna and obtained a PhD at the University of Zurich. Specializing in art law and intellectual property law, she strives to adopt an interdisciplinary approach bridging between the disciplines of law, (legal) sociology and art theory. In her work, she has in particular engaged with Niklas Luhmann's systems theory, which allows an accurate description of the interactions of different autonomous social systems (such as art and law) by preserving their differences and analyzing their reciprocal expectations.
