It would be 1 artist that rather paint than sue versus the powerful Keith Haring Estate.

On legal basis this doesn't look to complicated. On the expertise field, it will represents a lot of work. For sure. But it's not the lawyer job. And maybe it will be possible to find an amicable settlement. The point is not to be greedy, just having recognition for the work done, imo it is not to much to ask.

Angel Ortiz LA2 LA II โข Artist Discussion , by daveart on Mar 4, 2011 15:24:09 GMT 1, Take a look at this piece.
www.phillipsdepury.com/auctions/lot-detail.aspx?sn=NY010307&search=&p=8&order=&lotnum=178
My opinion would be keith haring never touched that piece of wood. The man looks off.. the LA 2 tag is all over it, KH didnt really work in spray paint, etc, Maybe it was done in KH's studio - or with KH - but to me that's a LA2 being sold as a KH for $156,000. Doesnt take long to find other auction sales that are similar. Funny that someone says " I bought a Keith Haring for $156,000" .. but it says LA 2 all over it. ha ha.
Agree. this would be a tough legal battle for LA 2. and he isnt really in a position financially to go after KH foundation. what LA 2 needs is an art forum with 10,000 members to all send an email to Deitch and KH foundation to just ask "why cant you do a show featuring LA 2 and change some titles on pieces in museums?" pushing LA 2 during the current urban art boom could re vitalize the KH brand for another 20 years. from what i know . their answer is "LA2 was paid work for hire. End of conversation."
