Matt Stevens, The New York Times; Richard Prince to Pay Photographers Who Sued Over Copyright
"The artist Richard Prince agreed to pay at least $650,000 to two photographers whose images he had incorporated in his own work, ending a long-running copyright dispute that had been closely monitored by the art world...
Brian Sexton, a lawyer for Prince, said the artist wanted to protect free expression and have copyright law catch up to changing technology...
Marriott said the judgments showed that copyright law still provided meaningful protection to creators and that the internet was not a copying free-for-all.
“There is not a fair use exception to copyright law that applies to the famous and another that applies to everyone else,” he said."
