I saw the examples in the article and agree with you. I wonder what prevents others from similarly appropriating the work of Lichtenstein himself. What if I were to take a Lichtenstein piece, rotate it, crop 2% of it and sell it anew w/o any royalties? Could the Lichtenstein estate really argue against it if the original its-self is stolen?
Or imagine if someone appropriated an original El_Cap_de_Barcelona, could the Lichtenstein estate argue against that when many of their own pieces have done the same?

- mrdrqr 4y agoThe Lichtenstein estate wouldn't care because no one wants your copy.
- Terretta 4y agoYou need to gather reference copies of all of "his" works, then "transformatively" sequence them back into a comic book, one painting per frame of the story. The estate wouldn't have a leg to stand on, and any case would make the comic book sell better from notoriety.
- jacquesm 4y agoI've seen 'slowed down' versions of music on youtube under different account names than the original artist. Zero originality, and yet, they stay up. Example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wcqFKzzYc44 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wcqFKzzYc44
