ART + LAW
National Conference for Visual Artists & Art Lawyers
June 8th – 10th, Lord Elgin Hotel, Ottawa
Those of you who follow us on Twitter and/or Facebook may have already heard of the upcoming Art + Law conference organized by CARFAC National that will be held in Ottawa from June 8–10. From reading our bulletins and Magazine, you would also know that we have been particularly active on the copyright file during the last few years in Canada and internationally, avidly watching, reporting and analysing the developments of C-11.
It seemed natural then that we would partner with CARFAC and engage our network and expertise towards the success of the conference, in particular towards the copyright panel. Other topics that will be discussed during the three day event are labour relations and artist’s resale rights, which I am sure will interest many of you out there!
Still, if you can’t make it to Ottawa that weekend there are ways to take part in the discussions. Both the copyright and labour relations panels will be open to a live interactive debate where artists and legal experts are invited to contribute questions via twitter at #artlaw.
You can view the full schedule and register for the event on CARFAC’s website.
