There is probably no need to recall that this case concerned the notion of parody under Article 5(3)(k) of the InfoSoc Directive, as well as the need to "strike a fair balance" between copyright protection and freedom of expression. With regard to the latter, the Court held [para 31] that the relevant rightholder has "in principle, a legitimate interest in ensuring that the work protected by copyright is not associated" with a parody that conveys a discriminatory message.

Copyright et droit d'auteur (int)

Sous sa forme moderne, la protection des œuvres de l'esprit naît en France avec la législation révolutionnaire qui régira le système durant plus de cinquante ans jusqu'à la loi de 1957.

Le droit d'auteur, comme le copyright, correspond à un compromis social qui a abouti à un certain équilibre. Néanmoins, malgré ce point commun, on observe que ces deux systèmes de protection des œuvres de l'esprit ont des traditions et des conséquences bien différentes.

Clearly, the answer is 'no'. After waiting for it for a long time, yesterday this Kat had the opportunity [or, rather, the chance] to visit the majestic Henri Cartier Bresson exhibition at the beautiful Centre Pompidou together with Merpel [who also happens to be in Paris]. Cartier-Bresson is known as the father of modern photo-journalism and inventor of the expression 'the decisive moment' [also a book], which he himself defined as follows: "Photography is not like painting. There is a creative fraction of a second when you are taking a picture.

That is the moment the photographer is creative. Cartier-Bresson was apparently very much concerned with having the spirit of his work respected. "Are moral rights human rights?": come and find out!
