Art Law: Cases and Materials, 2nd Edition

Art Law: Cases and Materials, Second Edition, by Leonard D. Duboff and Michael Dr. Murray offers a timely and panoramic view of the entire field of law. Designed as a primary text for courses on Law and the Visual Arts, Cultural Property Law, or Cultural Heritage Law, the three-part framework of this highly readable casebook explores Artists’ Rights, Art Markets, and the International Preservation of Art and Cultural Property.

Professors and students will benefit from:

• Up-to-date case excerpts and notes, and the addition of illustrated case stories with photos, charts, and diagrams.
• Expanded coverage of the fastest growing areas of art law—copyright, right of publicity, moral rights and VARA (Visual Artists Rights Act), and First Amendment.
• Additional coverage of international protection of art and cultural property in peacetime and wartime with issues relating to the Arab Spring revolts and post-Arab Spring events in Libya, Iraq, and Syria, as well as continuing, longer term problems in Europe, South and Central America, Africa, and Asia.
