The Daily Progress, a Charlottesville news source, highlighted a recent study by Professor Christopher Buccafusco and colleague Chris Sprigman (University of Virginia) in an article this week (“Study: Artists and buyers are often at odds”).
The article outlines Buccafusco and Sprigman’s two-year research project analyzing artists’ tendency to attribute more value to their work than the market recognizes. The project’s results were detailed in an academic paper titled What’s a Name Worth?: Experimental Tests of the Value of Attribution in Intellectual Property (forthcoming Boston University Law Review).
