dc.title | Aboriginal Artists' Rights and Protection: A Study of Australian Law and International Law | en |
heal.abstract | This dissertation was written as part of the MSc in Art Law and Arts Management at the International Hellenic University. It explores Aboriginal Artists’ rights and protection under Australian law based on an analysis of legal cases, the institutional framework for supporting the artists and discrepancies between Australian law and international laws relating to Indigenous Knowledge in Australia. Aboriginal Australians are considered the world’s oldest civilization based on DNA studies carried out by historians. Aboriginal culture is rich, with a strong oral tradition and spiritual connection to the land. Yet because Aboriginals traditionally followed a nomadic lifestyle, precious little physical evidence of their culture remains. The aboriginal community has faced challenges in controlling the unauthorized reproduction of their artwork, receiving fair compensation and has become vulnerable to unethical treatment by opportunists. The objective of the dissertation is to identify: (i) the rights and protections available to Aboriginal artists under both Australian law and international laws relating to Indigenous Knowledge in Australia; (ii) to what extent the existing institutional framework provides support to Aboriginal artists in maintaining these rights and protections; and (iii) how Australian law could be better harmonized with international laws relating to Indigenous Knowledge in Australia. Based on this analysis, the paper recommends measures to strengthen Aboriginal Artists’ rights and protection under Australian law and the institutional framework surrounding Indigenous Knowledge (IK) through measures to control Indigenous art in the marketplace, respect Indigenous laws and customs, recognize and protect the rights of Indigenous People, and promote ethical behavior in dealing with IK. | en |
