The new Congress could reintroduce a key bill to establish droit de suite in the US
The new Congress could reintroduce a key bill to establish droit de suite in the US.
"The introduction of droit de suite legislation in the US would help rectify this inconvenience for well-known contemporary artists like Marshall but it would be an even bigger boon for historically disadvantaged artists who have been left out of the American canon of art for reasons of race, gender or other socio-economic limitations.
This is especially true of the many artists who lack representation or a presence in the art market until the end of their careers or posthumously. [...]The ART Act could provide a small measure of equity to artists by allowing them a 5% royalty of the price paid for their work within 90 days when it is resold at auction.
But the terms are still limited—all art sold for less than $5,000 is exempted, and the 5% royalty is capped at $35,000 regardless of how much the work sells for. Still, in light of the current lack of droit de suite in the US, this change would be welcome"
