The Supreme Court ruled that the late Andy Warhol infringed on a photographer's copyright when he created a series of silk screens based on a photograph of the late singer Prince.
In a dissent from Justice Elena Kagan that was joined by Chief Justice John Roberts, the liberal justice wrote: "It will stifle creativity of every sort. It will impede new art and music and literature. It will thwart the expression of new ideas and the attainment of new knowledge. It will make our world poorer."
Central to the case was whether Warhol infringed on Goldsmith's copyright when he created a series of silk screens of the musician Prince. At issue is the so-called "fair use" doctrine in copyright law that permits the unlicensed use of copyright-protected works in certain circumstances. In the case at hand, a district court ruled in favor of Warhol, basing its decision on the fact that the two works in question had a different meaning and message. But an appeals court reversed - ruling that a new meaning or message is not enough to qualify for fair use.
