In a case spanning nearly 40 years of art and touching the estates of two of the world’s most well-known artists, the US Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit clarified its position on the application of the fair use doctrine and its protection of transformative works. In doing so, the Second Circuit reversed the district court’s finding of fair use and held that a series of prints and illustrations of the musical artist Prince created by the visual artist Andy Warhol were substantially similar to a 1981 portrait photograph of Prince taken by the photographer Lynn Goldsmith. The Court remanded for further proceedings.

A few years back, a bevy of art critics declared that Marcel Duchamp’s 1917 sculpture called “Fountain” a store-bought urinal he had presented, unchanged, as art was the most influential work of the 20th century. Andy Warhol’s 1964 Brillo Boxes copies of scouring-pad cartons presented as art could easily have come a close second. The philosopher Arthur Danto built an illustrious career, and a whole school of thought, around the importance of those boxes to understanding the very nature of artworks.
