CREDITS 2 (LV) 3 (ECTS) - 30 Contact Hours

In the framework of this interdisciplinary course we will systematically explore how the law shapes and constrains artistic expression. We will examine some of the pressing contemporary legal issues, including intellectual property rights in works of art (copyright, appropriation, and resale); the relationship between artistic freedom and censorship; legal issues involving art collectors, museums, and galleries; and international law and the fate of works of art in wartime.
