UC Law SF Communications and Entertainment Journal
Abstract
The author reflects on the meaning both of the shocking prices currently being paid for many works of art and of some instances of the censorship of art. The author offers the possibility that both of these phenomena reveal a hostility to art and the artists who create it. The Essay then recommends a role that moral rights and resale royalty legislation can play to improve the public's sensitivity to the arts and artists.
