On March 2nd, SCOTUS ended the saga of "The Recent

On March 2nd, SCOTUS ended the saga of "The Recent Enteance to Paradise ", having denied writ of certiorari in Thaler v. Perlmutter. The question posed to the Court was if a work with a nonhuman author could receive copyright protections. The Court of Appeals for D.C. (2025) and the District Court (2023) have already answered 'no' to this issue, citing prior case law human requirements, statute interpretation of the word human artist, and other arguments. Check out our coverage discussing both lower court opinions using the link in bio. Human authorship remains a must for copyright registration.

A recent report by the World Jewish Restitution Or

A recent report by the World Jewish Restitution Organization (WRJO) states that most American museums provide inadequate provenance information for potentially Nazi-looted objects held in their collections. This is an ongoing problem, as emphasized by the closure of the Nazi-Era Provenance Internet Portal last year. Established in 2003, the portal was intended to act as a public registry of potentially looted art held in museum collections across the United States. However, over its 21-year lifespan, the portal's practitioners struggled to secure ongoing funding and it ultimately became outdated.

The WJRO report highlights this failure, noting that museums themselves have done little to make provenance information easily accessible. This lack of transparency is a serious blow to the efforts of Holocaust survivors and their descendants to secure the repatriation of seized artworks. WJRO President Gideon Taylor urged American museums to make more tangible efforts to cooperate with Holocaust survivors and their families in their pursuit of justice.

Join us for an informative presentation and pro bo

Join us for an informative presentation and pro bono consultations to better understand the current art and copyright law landscape. Copyright law is a body of federal law that grants authors exclusive rights over their original works — from paintings and photographs to sculptures, as well as other fixed and tangible creative forms. Once protection attaches, copyright owners have exclusive economic rights that allow them to control how their work is reproduced, modified and distributed, among other uses.

Albeit theoretically simple, in practice copyright law is complex and nuanced: what works acquire such protection? How can creatives better protect their assets or, if they wish, exploit them for their monetary benefit?
