The ARLIS/NA book,Fair Use in the Visual Arts: Lesson Plans for Librarians, is a fantastic resource. The pdf download is found here:
https://www.arlisna.org/publications/arlis-na-research-reports/1479-fair-use-lesson-plans-op17
The book has some great ideas – I combined a couple of the different chapters and created a 3-class series for some of the studio art classes, one of which focused on transformation of art and
another on copyright, fair use, and public domain. One of the examples is the Cariou v. Prince case.

Subject: [ARLIS-L] original artwork/appropriation
Dear colleagues,
Our library received a question from one of the Studio Art faculty regarding the use of source imagery in creation of original artwork.
He would like us to create a resource that would outline what is an "original" artwork, what is "appropriation", "fair use", and what is
the definition of the outright plagiarism of an image. He also brings up some recent high profile cases (listed at the end) and also refers to a lot of other artists who legitimately appropriate art starting
with Marcel Duchamp,
Sherrie Levine and so forths.
I am curious if you as Art Librarians provide expertise/guidelines on this and if so, do you have good resources you could share with me?
These are the cases he mentions:
Many thanks!
Nina Bogdanovsky

Media Librarian
