This program brings together practitioners to explore several timely issues at the intersection of entertainment, sports, and art law. Panels will cover the rapid evolution of NIL and its impact on college athletics, including recent litigation, reform efforts, and shifting economic models. The program will also examine developments in artists’ moral rights under the Visual Artists Rights Act, with a focus on street art and the implications of cases like 5Pointz. In addition, panelists will discuss the ongoing uncertainty around music licensing in sports settings, including who bears responsibility when music is used in live performances.
