The Louisiana State University School of Theatre, College of Music and Dramatic Arts and LSU Law Center in conjunction with the LSU Office of Research and Economic Development; Women and Gender Studies Program; the Law and Humanities Institute; and the Arts, Entertainment and Sports Law Section of the Louisiana State Bar Association present “By Any Other’s Name: A Conference on Law, Authorship and Appropriation” October 28 and 29 on the campus of LSU.
The conference will bring together scholars, performers, and students to discuss law and authorship in the face of challenges issued by artists who engage in appropriation—the practice of taking the works of others to rethink or recreate new works.
Bill Ivey, former chairman of the National Endowment for the Arts, will be the keynote speaker. A full schedule of panels is available here.
