Course description

In the last few years, various fashion brands have been involved in cultural heritage case law due to the unauthorised use of art no longer protected by copyright, especially before Italian Courts.


Italy is the only country with specific legislation protecting cultural heritage independently from intellectual property rights. As a result, brands are often not aware of the limitations in place and requirements to comply with to use artistic works as part of their global projects.


In this webinar, Serena Totino will explore how similar issues are faced in other jurisdictions, including the UK and US, and the practical implications regulations have for brands. The webinar will offer step by step guidance on how to deal with cultural heritage on a global basis, as well as examine recent case law.
