Whether creativity is a professional endeavor or just a hobby it usually results in a number (sometimes large) of creative output. What is going to happen with it upon the death of a creative? Are those hundreds of paintings to be kept in storage, thrown away, donated, burned, sold? What about the brushes, easels, hammers or bags of concrete? In this episode, I would like to address the matter of artist’s heritage, as well as pull together some important questions for the artists to reflect upon and for their advisers to take into account in their discussions with their clients.

A famous graffiti artist Banksy never admitted he is an author of his artworks. Except for the book “Wall and piece” (Century, The Random House Group Limited 2005). There on the intro page, he does claim authorship — “Against his better judgment, Banksy has asserted his right under the Copyright, Designs and Patent Act, 1988 to be identified as the author of this work.” Also Banksy’s well-known quote: “Copyright is for losers” has a copyright sign behind it. Yet, that’s where Intellectual property (further - IP) protection basically “ends” for graffiti artists, those “street vandals” damaging properties belonging to someone else, or… doesn’t it?
In this episode I would like to discuss graffiti and where does the legal protection stand in its respect.
