Appropriation Art after Cariou vs Prince

Appropriation Art Alive and Well after Second Circuit Ruling in Cariou v. Prince | BakerHostetler - JDSupra: " The standard has always been that “a new work generally must alter the original with ‘new expression, meaning, or message.’” (quoting Campbell v Acuff Rose Music).  The court also referred to its 2006 decision, Blanch v. Koons, in support of the standard. In that case, the Second Circuit affirmed a finding of fair use for a collage painting by appropriation artist Jeff Koons that copied and altered part of a photograph. With that standard in mind, the Second Circuit found that in all but five of the thirty pieces of artwork, Prince’s artwork “manifest[s] an entirely different aesthetic from Cariou’s photographs.”"
