“Good artists copy; great artists steal”, goes the famous quote attributed to Pablo Picasso. Although rumour has it that he stole it from Igor Stravinsky. Or was it William Faulkner or TS Eliot? Either way, it is clear that artists have been “stealing” each other’s ideas ever since anyone thought of imposing copyright (and not even that).\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

The evidence for this theory is latent throughout history, from Rubens’ copy of Titian to Andy Warhol’s reproductions.<\/strong> You only have to look at the Instagram of @whos___who<\/a><\/strong> -a sort of Diet Prada, but in the art world- to find innumerable more contemporary examples. In recent years, appropriation has become a highly controversial topic, widespread in all fields: music, fashion, photography and art.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Undoubtedly one of the biggest names in art who is making the most money from lawyers is Jeff Koons<\/strong>. The publicist Franck Davidovici<\/strong> sued him because his sculpture Fait d’hiver was a copy of the campaign he created for the firm Naf-Naf.<\/strong> Shortly after this controversy, the widow of the photographer Jean-Fran\u00e7ois Bauret<\/strong> also accused him of copying one of her husband’s images. These are some of the lawsuits filed against the artist in recent years.<\/p>\n
