While you're surfing, you might as well look up the latest art industry (oops, I meant community) catfight between Vanessa Beecroft and Maurizio Cattelan. Seems Beecroft told the italian edition of vanity Fair (you really have to look for art news these days...) that she and Cattelan had a brief romance before they became art heavyweights and now every little remark she makes turns up as a sculpture. Hmmm. get the skinny by visiting The Guardian's website.
But really now. Plagiarism is using another's words, not his or her ideas, which cannot be patented or copyrighted becuase ideas have no physical propoerties to protect. Still, I'm sure there's sympathy for Beecroft out there someplace, right? Let's hear it.
