Empowering Artistry: Navigating the Legal Landscape - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

You created the work. Now protect it.

Most artists don't lose their rights in court; they lose them at the contract table. A clause they didn't understand. A deal they signed too fast. A negotiation they weren't prepared for.

Empowering Artistry: Navigating the Legal Landscape gives you the legal literacy to walk into any deal with confidence, without needing a law degree or a lawyer on speed dial.

Written by Kesía Ramos, a decade-long artist manager who has negotiated corporate deals, managed public art commissions, and gone toe-to-toe with brands on behalf of artists; this is lived experience, not textbook theory.

Inside you'll find:

• Plain-English breakdowns of contracts, NDAs, licensing, royalties, and copyright
• Real negotiation scenarios with language you can actually use
• A Contract Review Checklist so nothing slips through the cracks
• How to protect your intellectual property before someone takes it
• What VARA rights mean for your work — and when to assert them

Whether you're signing your first commission agreement or renegotiating gallery terms, this guide meets you where you are.

Know what you're signing. Know what you're worth.
