Re: Re: Artists Rights Society Asks Google to Remove Logo

It would be interesting to see how the estate could establish that Miró's reputation was in any way injured by this "distortion."

Under US law, this would not be covered by our "moral rights lite" statute, but even elsewhere one does have to make some showing of reputational injury, no?
