The iconic “Obama Hope” image created by street artist Shepard Fairey has now spawned no less than five copyright conflicts. The Associated Press’ first sued dispute with Shepard Fairey landed in court in 2009, with the wire service saying Fairey broke copyright laws when he created the artwork, because it was based on an AP photograph. That case settled in 2010, with Fairey paying an undisclosed sum, but the AP continues to litigate against the clothing company that sells Fairey’s designs, Obey Clothing. On Wednesday the AP filed three more lawsuits against three retailers who are selling clothes that bear Fairey’s design, Adweek reported?Urban Outfitters, Nordstrom, and Zumiez.
