Recently, there has been a sharp increase in cases where corporations have been sued by street and graffiti artists because their artwork has been used and abused without the permission of the artists, such as in advertising campaigns, as backgrounds in promotional videos, or as decorative elements of products. This trend shows and confirms that these art forms are vulnerable. In fact, they are more exposed to unauthorized exploitation (and also destruction) than works of fine art because they are exposed to the public. Protecting Art in the Street explains, in words and images, how copyright applies to street art and graffiti and how it can help creators within these art communities. Knowledge of these issues matters. Recently, there has been a surge in legal action or complaints against corporations and individuals who have attempted to commercialize street art works without the consent of the artists and, more importantly, without sharing any profit with them. Street artists have also filed legal lawsuits to combat the destruction of their works. By mastering simple language, Protecting Art in the Street is an easy-to-follow guide aimed at navigating street artists and graffiti writers through the otherwise difficult and complex legal issues surrounding the protection of their artistic outputs.
