Art Attacks: Perspectives on the Use of Fashion Logos
SOLD OUT!
Famous logos often appear in modified forms and unexpected places, from art galleries to tattoos. Brand recognition in these instances is nearly universal; the reaction of viewers and frequently “bitten” trademark holders is anything but. And while public commentary about art, parody, fair use, and infringement can be loud and passionate, especially in the echo chambers of the internet, parties with different views on the unauthorized transformation of trademarks rarely speak directly, thoughtfully, and candidly with one another. Until now. Please join us for a Fashion Week panel discussion, “Art Attacks: Perspectives on the Use of Fashion Logos.”
DATE: Friday, February 8
TIME: 9:30-10:45am (breakfast at 9am)
PLACE: Fordham Law School, 140 W. 62nd Street, room 430B/C
NYS CLE credit (attorneys): 1.5 hours professional practice, transitional & non-transitional
Participants include
- Anna Dalla Val, Esq. (Ralph Lauren)
- David De Buck (De Buck Gallery)
- Marisa Kakoulas, Esq. (Needles and Sins)
- Michael Pantalony, Esq.
We look forward to seeing you soon!

Holiday Greeting 2012
Shop – Women’s Logo T-Shirt – Blk
Women’s logo t-shirt – black
When Pentagram, the design firm that created our award-winning logo, gave us a Mad Men-style presentation of creative options, this dramatic white-on-black image was the very first one — and it won our hearts immediately. Don Draper and Peggy Olson (and Paul Rand) have nothing on these guys! Enjoy a classic.
Shop – Unisex Logo T-Shirt – Blk
Unisex logo t-shirt – black
Let’s hear it for the boys! The classic black t-shirt with our award-winning logo in white is also available in a crew-neck men’s style. Perfect for the gentleman fashion lawyer — or the woman whose style icons include Marlene Dietrich and Katharine rather than Audrey.
