A photographer, Patrick Cariou, sued artist Richard Prince, saying that Prince's art is a ripoff of Cariou's photos. The decision in this lawsuit could have far-reaching implications. Arts Sun, 08 Apr 2012 12:43:18 -0500 in the opening of this article, you have made an error. Actually you have that backwards. Cariou is the photographer. Richard Prince is the 'appropriation artist' that took over 40 of Carious 's images from his book, made them into canvases, and painted on them. Prince fetches high prices for his ...ahem...."work". sam Arts Sun, 08 Apr 2012 13:01:05 -0500 "I would have paid for the paint and brushes, your honor, but I only used them so I can employ images within the frame of my painting" PRI: Public Radio International
