- Summary:
- "[This book] explores multiple points of intersection between artistic authorship and intellectual property. In addition to insights about the direct impact of copyright on art-making practices, it considers many closely related conventions that exceed legal codification. Issues related to art are part of a broader inquiry into ownership claims that permeate contemporary physical and virtual worlds, with emphasis on the importance of sustaining a vital cultural commons"-- Provided by publisher.
