SUMMARY:Fair Use For Artists (CLE Credit)
DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:Event Name: Fair Use For Artists (CLE Credit)=0D=0AEvent Url: http://www.nowplayingnashville.com/event/detail/146483=0D=0AEvent Date Begin: 2009-05-13=0D=0AEvent Date End: 2009-05-13=0D=0A=0D=0AWith the recent dispute over Shepard Fairey's use of an AP photograph as a reference for his Obama poster, fair use has been discussed in the news quite a bit lately. The concept of 'fair use' generally refers to the use of copyrighted material without the author's permission for a limited and 'transformative' purpose such as commentary, criticism or parody. During this seminar, we will attempt to bring clarity to this often murky and confusing area of copyright law, including looking at guidelines for artists when determining whether their proposed use of a copyrighted work might be a 'fair use' or not. =0D=0A==0D=0A=Taught by Ken Sanney, a VLPA volunteer lawyer from Day & Blair, P.C.
