'Art is theft,' Picasso once proclaimed, and much of the best and
most 'original' new art involves an act or two of unequivocal,
overt theft. Paradoxically, the law relating to artistic borrowing
has grown more restrictive. 'The plagiarism and copyright trials of
the twenty-first century are what the obscenity trials were to the
twentieth century', Kenneth Goldsmith, has observed. 'These are
really the issues of our time.' Beg, Steal and Borrow offers a
comprehensive and provocative survey of a complex subject that is
destined to grow in relevance and importance. It traces an artistic
lineage of appropriation from Michelangelo to Jeff Koons, and
examines the history of its legality from the sixteenth century to
now.
