Jeff Koons Loses His Copyright Infringement Appeal A French Court Rules
The long-awaited court appeal case between Jeff Koons and the photographer Frank Davidovici over copyright infringement concerning a sculpture appropriated from a 1970s ad campaign has ruled in favour of the plaintiff for a second time.
The work (Koons’s 1988 sculpture Fait d’hiver, from his “Banality series) was removed from a major Pompidou Centre exhibition. It depicts a woman lying in the snow with a pig, almost exactly replicating a Naf Naf advert that Mr Davidovici created.
Davidovici was alerted to the 2014 exhibition catalogue, which travelled from the Whitney Museum in New York then to the Centre Pompidou in Paris.
