Creating is no longer always a solitary act. In contemporary art, creation is sometimes negotiation, collaboration or delegation. But when conflict arises, the law demands a clear answer: who is the author? This session explores one of the most complex questions that art poses to the law: when does execution cease to be mere execution and become creation? Can a technician, a performer or a producer claim authorship of a work? Where does the law draw the line between the conceiver and the executor? When does a contribution make you an author?
